Canadian alt. rock band, Billy Talent, was founded in 1993 as Pezz before changing their name in 1999. Their debut album garnered critical acclaim and won two Juno Awards for Best Album of the Year and Best Band of the Year. Since then, they have achieved multiple Platinum certifications in Canada and have expanded their success overseas.

The band's founding members include Ben Kowalewicz on vocals, Ian D'Sa on guitar, and Jon Gallant on bass. In 2016, Jordan Hastings from Alexisonfire joined as a drummer while Loel Campbell also joined later during the Crisis of Faith tour due to Hastings' commitments with his own band. Although original drummer Aaron Solowoniuk is currently on hiatus due to health issues, he remains active with the band.

Billy Talent's unique sound and energetic performances have captivated audiences worldwide. With their continued success and dedication to their craft, they are sure to leave a lasting impact on the music industry.

Toronto-based punk rockers Billy Talent released their fifth studio album Afraid of Heights in 2016. Preceded by the strong singles “Afraid of Heights”, “Louder than the DJ” and “Ghost Ship of Cannibal Rats”, the album became both a critical and a commercial success. It hit number 1 on the album charts in several countries including their native Canada. It is the first album with drummer Jordan Hastings (of Alexisonfire fame), after drummer Aaron Solowoniuk announced he would not be able to play drums for the foreseeable future due to a multiple sclerosis relapse. However, Solowoniuk very much remained part of the band and was involved in the recording of the album. It was a new chapter for Billy Talent, but the trusted high-energy punk rock that they are known for remains more than solid. Just listen to the thumping “The Crutch” or the introspective epic “Rabbit Down The Hole”.
