While She Sleeps headlined The Granada Theatre in Lawrence, Kansas on Sunday, April 13th with support from Bury Tomorrow and Vended.

Vended was the first band to make their way to the stage Sunday night. Eager fans waited in excitement for one of their favorite acts to start. Lead vocalist Griffin Taylor employs a mix of different screams, in addition to more melodic vocals, to create Vended’s signature sound. The band’s look boarders on the theatrical side, using masks and makeup to add to the dramatic feeling they bring to the table.

Next up, prepping the stage for the night’s main act, was British metalcore band Bury Tomorrow. This five-piece band rushed the stage with plenty of smiles and intensity to go around. These guys were excited to be in Lawrence performing for us, and it showed throughout the entire set. Vocalist Daniel Winter-Bates invited everyone in the venue to come up to the front for just one song. As the crowd huddled, he commanded them to jump and sing along, making for an impactful moment and a fun memory for concertgoers. The band thanked the members of the crowd for coming out to see them for their second time playing The Granada. They remarked how the last time they came through town, there were “like 5 people in the crowd.” There were a lot more than that Sunday night, and they were all entranced by the band’s set. Bury Tomorrow’s sound and energy were such a great mix and easily made a fan out of me. They gave Lawrence 150%, and we can’t wait for them to come back and do it again.

Finally, it was time for headliners While She Sleeps. This band hails from Sheffield, and the crowd was over the moon that they were in town Sunday night. Fans were chomping at the bit for their favorites to storm the small, intimate stage just in front of them. They wasted no time and spared no energy delivering blows of heavy, piercing music to the masses. If there’s one thing While She Sleeps knows how to do, it’s ignite a room. On Sunday night, the British metalcore powerhouse transformed The Granada into an intense scene of riffs and raw energy. While She Sleeps tore through Lawrence with a set that was as relentless as it was heartfelt. For fans, this concert was everything they could have hoped for. While She Sleeps left their devoted fans buzzing in their wake.
