The Forsaken

Founded in the Cambridgeshire area by Bassist and frontman Dan Hunsdon, THE FORSAKEN is a hard rock foursome with a relatable and emotional story to tell. Their sound is BIG, edgy and raw which is exactly what you would expect from influences such as Atreyu, Beartooth, Black Stone Cherry and Alter Bridge. The band is made up of Dan Hunsdon (bassist and frontman), Adam Cheverton (drums), Stuart Isteed (lead guitar and backing vocals) and Dan’s son, Jack Hunsdon (Rhythm Guitar and backing vocals). The band is passionate about promoting recovery and mental health awareness. This is because frontman Dan Hunsdon spent the majority of his life in active addiction and has recently undergone a rehabilitation programme which has seen him successfully changed his life and sponsors others in the same position. Their songs lyrics are heavily themed around Dan’s journey of recovery which gives listeners an insight into his life challenges.

Already gaining traction in their hometown of Cambridge, UK, from the energetic and humours live shows, THE FORSAKEN have recently secured support slots with the likes of Loz Campbell and The Hot One Two, and have seen them secure several local festivals. THE FORSAKEN release their first single on 4th March 2024 which was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Jake Day (Brave Liason) at North Acre Recording Studios. Don’t miss out on the chance to see one of the most exciting up and coming hard rock / metal bands in the UK.
