Listen "22 Rising"
Episode Synopsis
There’s a rare kind of electricity that surges through a debut single when a band knows exactly what they stand for — when every note, lyric, and chord feels lived-in, fought for, and hard-won. That’s the undeniable pulse running through “Fractured Fragments,” the powerful inaugural offering from 22 Rising, a group carving their own legacy out of grief, hope, and sheer rock ‘n’ roll resilience.The band’s name isn’t just a catchy moniker. “22” represents balance, perseverance, and deep personal meaning for frontman Bradley Mangrum. It’s a tribute to his late daughter Leighanne, whose name holds 22 letters and whose tragically brief life both began and ended on the 22nd. The number is woven into the band’s DNA, a constant reminder of why they play and who they play for.
