Anberlin recently surprised fans with the release of Nevertake, a reimagined version of the quintessential album celebrating its twenty year anniversary, now featuring Matty Mullins on vocals.

Vocalist Matty Mullins previously shared “’Never Take Friendship Personal’ was the soundtrack to my life when I was 17. It shaped the most crucial years of my early music career. To now have the opportunity to step into the role of vocalist for the band that inspired me is beyond surreal. Re-recording this album with my own voice has been a full-circle moment and an absolute dream come true. We’ve poured our hearts into honoring the original while giving it new life, and I can’t wait for both longtime fans and new listeners to experience it in this way.”

A force in alternative rock for more than two decades, Anberlin recently unveiled their full length album, Vega, on August 2 via Equal Vision Records. This highly anticipated release is the first proper record since announcing the touring departure of vocalist Stephen Christian and the addition of Memphis May Fire’s Matty Mullins. The twelve-tracks, deliberately free-flowing, represent the diverse nature of Anberlin; with a handful of much heavier tracks, a dabble into industrial exploration, as well as the quintessential mellow vibes Anberlin fans have come to love over the band’s expansive career.

Anberlin is Matty Mullins (Vocals), Stephen Christian (Vocals), Christian McAlhaney (Guitar & Vocals), Joseph Milligan (Guitar), Deon Rexroat (Bass) and Nathan Young (Drums).
