Escape the Fate is an American post-hardcore band from Las Vegas that formed in 2004.
The band consists of Craig Mabbitt on lead vocals; Bryan Money on lead guitar, keyboards and backing vocals; Robert Ortiz on the drums and Max Green on bass and backing vocals.
The band's first big break was in September 2005 when they won a radio contest judged by My Chemical Romance. The gig won them the opportunity to open a show on Chemical Romance's headlining tour with Alkaline Trio.
They are currently signed with Univerisal and DGC/Insterscope labels and have relased three major albums since 2006.
