Hawthorne Heights is an American rock band formed in Dayton, Ohio, in 2001. Originally called A Day in the Life, their lineup consists of JT Woodruff (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Matt Ridenour (bass, backing vocals) and Mark McMillon (lead guitar, unclean vocals). The band had commercial success with their first two albums, The Silence in Black and White (2004), and If Only You Were Lonely (2006), both achieving RIAA gold certification. Their second album peaked at No. 1 on Billboard's Independent Albums chart and No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart. They are also well known for their 2006 single, "Saying Sorry", which reached gold status and reached No. 7 on the Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart.

Their third album and first without Calvert, Fragile Future, was released in August 2008, surprisingly through Victory Records again, after a lengthy legal battle between the two parties. The band's fourth album, Skeletons (2010), was No. 50 on the Billboard 200. The band's former label, Victory, released their first greatest hits album...
