MAY 29, 2020 - Dallas, TX - Fit For A King have teamed up with We Came As Romans for a partnership that heavy music won't forget. After dropping a limited edition merch collab earlier this month, We Came As Romans' lead singer Dave Stephens hopped on for a new version of "Backbreaker" while Fit For a King's front man Ryan Kirby joined on "Carry The Weight" for a special 2-song collection that is sure to bring some energy into listener's ears. The tracks have already garnered the coveted cover of Spotify's New Core Playlist and can be streamed today at https://ffak.ffm.to/bbwcar.opr.
 
"With touring being put on ice, our bands wanted to do something to bring bands together, in a way that usually only touring together can," shares front man Ryan Kirby. "It started as just a collab merch idea, to a last second cover swap, and we are super pumped with how it turned out."
 
Most recently, Fit For A King released massive rock anthem "Breaking The Mirror." The explosive and heavy-hitting single solidified their place as a band at the forefront of the rock world.Fans can stream "Breaking The Mirror" today at https://ffak.ffm.to/ffak.
 
Fit For a King recently had to cancel a majority of their tour dates for the Dark Skies World Tour. It was in celebration of Fit For A King's 2018 massive release of the same name which is truly an evocative declaration of a hard won victory. "This album is far from happy. It's about personal struggles," explains Kirby. "It touches on many subjects relevant to all of our daily lives." Throughout the album, produced and mixed by the legendary Drew Fulk (I Prevail, Motionless In White, Memphis May Fire), heavy music and melodic hooks are used to honestly explore the dark sides of life.
 
Securing charting positions including the #2 Hard Rock, #3 Rock, #13 Top Current Albums and #69 on the Billboard 200, Dark Skies gave Fit For A King the biggest first week in their decade-long history and has helped propel them into the forefront of the metalcore scene. Heralding praise from outlets like Consequence of Sound, Revolver, Kerrang!, Loudwire and Alternative PressDark Skies is available to stream and purchase today at https://solidstate.lnk.to/DarkSkies.
 
Fit For A King was built with bootstrap ethics and do-it-yourself vigor. On the strength of self-released material, the group joined Solid State for a string of successful albums that connected with the downtrodden and dispossessed. Creation/Destruction (2013) debuted at Number 6 on the Hard Rock chart. Slave to Nothing (2014) cracked the Top 50 of Billboard's Top Current Albums. Deathgrip (2016) climbed to Number 5 among Hard Rock Albums. Now, with the band's latest release, Dark Skies, Fit For A King is looking to, once again, dominate the hard rock/metalcore scene through a collection of diverse anthems powered by the undeniable weight of truth-telling emotional vulnerability.

Fit For A King is Ryan Kirby (vocals), Bobby Lynge (guitar), Jared Easterling (drums), Ryan "Tuck" O'Leary (bass/vocals) and Daniel Gailey (guitar).
