Awaken I am: Secrets 10 Year Anniversary Tour


    We have been a huge fan of Awaken I Am for a while and had the honor of covering these young men on their 2018 U.S tour. When we got the offer to cover them on this tour with Secrets we did not hesitate to jump on the opportunity to meet up with our friends again.     Unfortunately we did not get to catch up with guitarist Connor due to a tragic accident that claimed his life at the age of 22.  Although he was not there physically, you could still feel his presence in the room with his brothers.


  Now let's get to their set! these guys just released their EP "The Beauty In Tragedy" a few weeks ago and although it was their way of greiving, it did not disappoint at all. It had everything from hurt, anger, confusion, questioning to why it happened ect. Their performance showed the exact emotions that you hear on their EP. It was emotional for us as the fans to see these amazing artist going through something so horrible and yet they found a way to perform it with respect, grace and pride because they poured their heart and soul into this in honor of their brother Connor. 

  
  The way Jimmy sang with such passion followed by Ryan playing his heart out on bass, Luke was tearing it up on drums and Jay was nailing it on guitar was mind blowing to me and every song showed how much this EP meant to them and to the world. Not only were they able to perform with such tremendous passion, it definitely showed all emotions to the point everyone was singing and crying. These young men put on a show that everyone in some way could relate to and then they also pulled out some of the old tracks to have fun with.


    Awaken I Am is definitely ones to keep your eye on because there is a lot more great things to come from these guys and their shows are only going to get better with time however their passion for the music will stay the same because their passion is something that can not be faked and their love and respect they have for their fans is priceless and they are going to keep taking the music scene and the world by storm.
