The Broken View

The Broken View, is an independent alternative rock band originating in Saratoga Springs, NY. The band was formed in 2018 by singer/song-writer Austin Kranick and drummer/producer Tyler Hayes. The two quickly bonded over their shared love for intricate songwriting and lyricism while working together on various musical projects. Together, Austin and Tyler began playing open-mic shows in Upstate, NY, performing acoustic versions of their songs which would later be released on their debut EP, Something Better in September of 2019. Following the success of the multi-million streamed title track, Something Better and their tribute cover of Linkin Parks Breaking the Habit, Austin began writing their first full-length album, On The Mend, as plans to tour were inevitably derailed, due to the worldwide pandemic. Since then, the band has hosted multiple sold out events in the Capital Region including the Album Release Party for, On The Mend in December of 2021, followed by an east coast tour in August of 2022 and the 1 year anniversary concert for On The Mend at the historic, Lark Hall in Albany, NY, later that year. The band has since relocated to the live music capital of the world, Austin, TX with plans to branch out their live shows to the midwest and west coast areas in 2025 with new music coming out shortly after.
