We recently learned of the passing of former BURNING SHADOWS vocalist Tom Davy. From 2010 to 2022, Tom’s immense talents brought our visions to reality. His impact on the band’s growth, reach, and longevity cannot be understated. During his time with the band, the vast majority of vocal arrangements were his domain. His lyrical skills are forever enshrined in the track he penned, “Truth in Legend,” the title track of our 2017 album. We will miss you, brother.

To celebrate Tom’s memory, we will be releasing some material from our archives. In the meantime, we encourage you to make a donation to a suicide prevention group, such as the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP): https://supporting.afsp.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donate.event&eventID=1
