SCARE DON’T FEAR, the first band signed to ASKING ALEXANDRIA guitarist Ben Bruce and co-manager Kyle Borman’s KBB RECORDS, will be spending their summer on the 2014 VANS WARPED TOUR, where they will be part of a powerhouse lineup that includes EVERY TIME I DIE, FALLING IN REVERSE, LESS THAN JAKE, MOTIONLESS IN WHITE, THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, THE SUMMER SET and more.
“All of us in SCARE DON’T FEAR have been following the WARPED TOUR since we were kids, so it’s an amazing feeling to be on the whole tour,” says the band, who will be featured on the Kevin Say’s Stage for the entire festival (see tour dates below). “We are anxious and ready to show everyone what we’re all about.”
Adds Bruce of the announcement: “I am extremely excited and proud that my mates in SCARE DON’T FEAR will be playing the VANS WARPED TOUR all summer long. I remember how incredibly supportive everyone was when ASKING ALEXANDRIA played WARPED and what a huge step it was in a our career, and I know everyone is going to show SDF the crazy love and support they showed us. Their debut album ‘FROM THE GROUND UP’ is incredible, and we can’t wait to share it with you all. Spend this summer moshing, dancing, laughing and singing – make it a summer to remember for yourselves and SCARE DON’T FEAR!”
SCARE DON’T FEAR are currently hard at work on their full-length debut, which the Providence, RI-based hip-hop/metal band are recording with producer Mike Watts [THE CHARIOT, AS CITIES BURN] at his VuDu Studios in Port Jefferson, NY. ‘FROM THE GROUND UP’ will be the first release for KBB RECORDS.

We have been working at this goal for over five years and it’s a very rewarding feeling to not only get signed, but to get signed to a label that has such an amazing team behind it. All of us are looking forward to building towards the future with KBB RECORDS.”
“KBB Records is a label run by artists, for artists,” says Bruce of the label. “It’s our goal to work alongside incredible artists of all genres and to create and release amazing music for the world to fall in love with.” Adds Borman: “Ben and myself have managed to turn what started out as a small, mobile recording studio, into an artist friendly record label with a team of staff with the experience and passion that can rival even the largest record labels around the world. KBB Records is dedicated to developing talented and passionate artists of all genres and helping them share their music with the world and accomplishing their dreams.”
