Since 2019, Atlanta, Georgia quartet Pistols At Dawn has continued with a revamped lineup and renewed ambition. The band’s current single, a radio edit of their song “Fly,” debuted at number one in the Top Adds category of the SMR Active Rock Chart, while also placing highly in multiple categories on Media Base and Billboard. But this version of the song contrasts from other radio edits, in that it’s a complete reworking, separate from the version that appeared on their 2022 debut album Ascension. Alongside the single’s release, the band wrapped a tour in support of Ugly Kid Joe and Fozzy, and are planning a headlining tour for next month.
I caught up with drummer and bandleader Adam Jaffee to discuss their recent shows, the significance of “Fly” and their growth between their releases, as well as the success they’ve accumulated, past and present.
