HolyName To Release 'Rock Against Traffic (Live In Pomona)'
HolyName has announced that they will be releasing Rock Against Traffic: Live in Pomona as a live album and video on March 7 from Facedown Records.
The event was recorded in August 2024 in Pomona, California, during a concert raising funds to support the care of trafficking survivors through Run Against Traffic. The night included a collaboration between HolyName and Convictions on the hard-hitting track “They See.”
“Michael Felker is a beast. He’s an incredible vocalist, and I’d never had the chance to collaborate in person with him before,” HolyName’s Tommy Green explains.
The sense of collaboration and unity is part of what made Rock Against Traffic so special and what makes the digital version an essential addition to any fan’s library. HolyName was joined by Impending Doom, Convictions, Dynasty and Meadows for the fundraiser event.
“I wanted Rock Against Traffic to be a way to support bands in the hardcore metal scene, to build a way for bands to give back to survivors,” Green explains. “The goal is that it would outgrow HolyName’s reach and go into a bigger space. That way different bands, different fans would have a chance to be connected to the cause.”
The singer and founder of Run Against Traffic sees a future where Rock Against Traffic events could take place nationwide, with the involvement of other bands. The live album and video is proof of the power that music has in catalyzing change.
