Beartooth are officially back and they did not come quietly. The Ohio rock outfit has released their new single “Free,” a massive, emotionally charged track that signals the beginning of a new chapter for the band following their signing to Fearless Records.

On March 11, Beartooth will take the stage at Boston’s TD Garden as direct support for Bad Omens, bringing their cathartic blend of vulnerability and aggression into one of the city’s largest venues. For a project that began as intensely personal expression, the scale of the moment feels both surreal and earned.

Backline, the nonprofit dedicated to supporting mental health in the music industry, has launched B-LINE, a 24/7 crisis support hotline designed specifically for artists, crew, and music professionals. The service, which officially goes live today, connects callers and texters with trained counselors who understand the unique pressures of working in music.
