Brian Burkheiser breaks his silence. In his first sit-down interview since parting ways with I Prevail, Brian tells his story — from forming one of rock's biggest bands to the vocal injuries, the Eagle Syndrome diagnosis, the legal battle, a manic episode that landed him in a psych ward, and everything in between. Now he's back with his new band Scatterbrain and the debut single "Phases" out everywhere now.
