FLAT BLACK

Guitarist Jason Hook is the driving force behind the new band FLAT BLACK, marking a thrilling new chapter in his musical journey. After a successful tenure as the guitarist for Five Finger Death Punch, which included numerous platinum certifications, unforgettable arena performances, and chart-topping hits, Hook is embarking on a fresh adventure with a talented trio of musicians. Teaming up with Fearless Records for their highly anticipated debut album, the band is poised to make waves in the music scene. Despite basking in the glow of past accomplishments, Hook’s hunger for musical innovation and excellence remains unyielding, tracing back to his early introduction to the guitar at the tender age of 6. Utilizing the unexpected hiatus brought about by the pandemic, Hook meticulously handpicked musicians who not only share his profound passion for music but also bring a wealth of diverse experiences to the table. Frontman Wes Horton’s musical journey began at just 13, inspired by his sister and the virtual realm of Guitar Hero. Honing his vocal skills through local performances and online platforms, Horton adds a dynamic edge to FLAT BLACK’s sound. Nick Diltz, the band’s bassist and a Los Angeles native, inherited a deep connection to rock music through his father, a revered rock photographer. Growing up amidst the pulsating music scene, Diltz’s roots in music run deep. Rob Pierce, the band’s drummer, originates from the vibrant musical hub of Nashville. Initially drawn to racing go-karts, Pierce’s destiny took a musical turn when he discovered his passion for percussion in the 4th grade. Opting for the snare drum over the saxophone, Pierce’s dedication to music solidified, becoming the focal point of his life.
