Formed as a studio project in 2015, Combustion 96 forges a hard-hitting mix of hard rock and metal that originates from their impressively diverse bank of influences. Starting as a one-man project, the music attracted several notable vocalists for its 2016 debut EP, First Wave. Singers such as Tommy Vext (The Lone Wolf, Bad Wolves), Frankie Palmeri (Emmure), and Corey Bennett (Bermuda) all contributed to the underground success of the band’s first offering that, to this day, continues to draw considerable streaming attraction.
Dallas-based Hard Rock/Metal band Combustion 96 decided to follow up their recent releases with a run of shows in the fall of 2023. Putting together a lineup of experienced musicians, the band’s first southwest regional tour was considered a huge success, highlighted with a headline show at Austin’s Come And Take It Live.
Last year, Combustion 96 released the track "On The Line" which made Loudwire’s “50
New Rock + Metal Songs Released This Week” Playlist. Throughout 2024, the band plans to consistently tour, release new music, continue collaborating with established musicians and expand on the sonic and visual universe that characterizes Combustion 96. To kick of the new year, the band is doing another tour in Texas, testing some coming releases live. Here are the dates so far:
