Formed in 2005, Mindset Evolution are a hard rock band from Peoria, Illinois. Made up of singer Rob Ulrich, guitarists Skyler Baer and Bradley Prentice, bassist Josh Bodeen, and drummer Joey Gibbs, the band follows in the footsteps of acts like Trapt, Hinder, and Seether with a driving sound that balances emotion with aggression. Mindset Evolution got their first break in 2011 when they were crowned the victors of the 2011 Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar Festival Battle of the Bands. After heading out on the 2012 Uproar tour, the band went into the studio with producer Johnny K to work on their full-length debut, Brave, Bold, and Broken, which was released in the summer of 2013. ~ Gregory Heaney
