Despite some lineup changes since their birth in 1997, the musical mastery of Norma Jean has remained the same. Their fifth album, Meridional, was released in 2010 and is a great example of what has kept Norma Jean relevant for almost twenty years: their natural prowess to create innovative and extremely powerful music. Norma Jean’s sixth and most recent album, Wrongdoers, was released in 2013 and is the first album to feature all of the current members of Norma Jean. The album earned the favor of music critics from Alternative Press, Decibel, Exclaim!, and Revolver. Critics and fans alike were impressed by Norma Jean’s ability to tap into the very spirit of metalcore and remain true to their roots as a metal band.

To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of their Grammy nominated album, O God, The Aftermath, Norma Jean is taking to the road to play the album in its entirety in venues across the country. With support from bands like ’68, Sleepwave, The Ongoing Concept, and Belle Haven, Norma Jean’s stop in Bryan will be one of the last of the tour and is guaranteed to be a night to remember.
