<p>Nothing could have prepared an ambitious group of college dropouts for what awaited them on the road to potential rock stardom. Suicide, depression, extreme poverty, injuries, broken down vans and nervous encounters with supermodels. This is the story of “Christian Hardcore” band, As Cities Burn. Aaron Lunsford, drummer, takes readers behind the scenes, sharing his unique, and sometimes harsh, perspective on what it was like to attempt to "make it" as a band in the early-to-mid 2000’s. Aaron’s comments on the ins and outs of the music business, as well as the moral pressures of the “Christian” music scene, are eye-opening. Backstage gives fans of any genre of music a chance to put themselves in the shoes of those who dare to dream, and often fall short in the end.</p>

<p>When Aaron Lunsford set out to write a book about his friends in the internationally known band Emery, his goal was to tell the story of how the band got started. In other words - a story not so different from what you could read in a standard band profile on a mediocre music blog. Quickly, Aaron realized that the real story was in the personalities of the band members. Even more than their music, Emery has been shaped and sustained by the fascinating individuals that have written and performed the music since their formation in 2001. Aaron's unique role in the world of Emery has spanned from fellow musician and label mate with his band, As Cities Burn - to tour manager and "inner circle" friend in the world of the screamo legends. Ditch the articles with the "how did you get your band name" questions and dive deep into this examination of the men who formed Emery, The Unlikely Masters of Rock.</p>
