Kris Barras Band are back with ‘All Falls Down’, a standalone single that sets the tone for what promises to be a massive 2026. If you’ve been following the band’s evolution from blues rock roots to full throttle hard rock, this track is everything you want it to be. Big chorus, heavy riffs, a groove that locks in. It’s an absolute banger.
The track actually dates back to 2020, originally written during a co-write session with Nashville songwriter Blair Daly, whose credits include Halestorm, Shinedown, and Black Stone Cherry. It didn’t make the cut for Death Valley Paradise at the time, but Kris clearly knew there was something worth revisiting. He went back to it last year, kept the lyrics and vocal melody, and completely rewrote the riffs, turning the track on its head. That instinct paid off.
As Kris puts it: “There was no debate this time around about whether it made the album and it felt like a great track to kick things off with. I feel like it’s got all of the typical KBB elements: big chorus, heavy riffs and a decent groove.”
He’s not wrong. ‘All Falls Down’ sits comfortably alongside the heavier material from Halo Effect, which debuted at number five in the UK Official Album Chart back in April 2024, claiming the top spot in the download, independent, and rock and metal charts.
For anyone needing their fix right now, Kris Barras Band are currently out on the road supporting Smith/Kotzen, the collaboration between Iron Maiden‘s Adrian Smith and The Winery Dogs‘ Richie Kotzen. The nine date UK tour kicked off on Thursday 12th February in Nottingham and runs through Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow, Wolverhampton, Southampton, Crumlin, and Bristol before wrapping up at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire on 21st February. Tickets are available at krisbarrasband.com.
With more announcements on the horizon, 2026 is shaping up to be another big year for a band that continues to prove the doubters wrong. From pro MMA fighter to sold out tours with Black Stone Cherry, The Darkness, and Thunder at venues like the Royal Albert Hall and Wembley Arena, Kris Barras doesn’t do things by halves.
‘All Falls Down’ is out now. Go listen.
