Multi-platinum rock band HINDER has released a new single, “Live Without It”, a soulful showstopper about letting go and moving on, taking the lead. The new track’s titular phrase has become a mantra for the band’s current journey — capturing the yearning to break free from emotional numbness. HINDER‘s deft storytelling reveals a band unafraid to lay everything bare, face the darkness, and come out the other side renewed.
Lately, HINDER are feeling the intensity of a new energy. Nearly two decades into their career, the band hasn’t just endured as a fixture of modern rock — it’s evolved. The versatile Oklahoma City-based quartet creates emotionally compelling rock, from hard-hitting anthems to subdued, contemplative ballads. Now the band is looking to the future.
HINDER‘s story begins in 2001, when Cody Hanson (drums),Joe “Blower” Garvey (lead guitar) and Mike Rodden (bass) met and activated their musical chemistry. The 2005 hit “Lips Of An Angel” from the band’s debut album “Extreme Behavior”, since certified three times platinum, topped the charts and remains a radio mainstay. Powerful lead vocalist Marshal Dutton joined them in 2015. Throughout their discography, HINDER has embodied an ethos of defiance and tenacity through gutsy lyrics, rousing melodies, and soaring choruses. Each album in their musical journey has reflected a progression, from the grittier early days of “Take It To The Limit” to the more introspective and exploratory energy of their most recent album, 2017’s “The Reign”.
The band started 2024 strong, with a series of sold-out shows and live performances with CREED, THREE DOORS DOWN and DAUGHTRY. The band’s vigorous live shows and blend of catchy hooks with raw, emotive lyrics have earned them crossover appeal and a loyal global fanbase.
HINDER emerges from the storm more focused and resilient than ever. With a renewed sense of purpose and drive, and still never afraid to take risks, HINDER is poised to continue forging its legacy as one of rock’s most enduring and dynamic bands. The band members’ resilience and adaptability have kept them at the forefront of the modern rock scene for nearly two decades, and they will continue — in fact, they’re just getting started.
