Blue October, the Houston-born, San Marcos, Texas-based alternative rock band, has become a beacon of emotional transparency and artistic transformation. Led by Justin Furstenfeld (vocals, guitar, songwriter) and joined by Jeremy Furstenfeld (drums, percussion), Ryan Delahoussaye (violin, mandolin, piano, backing vocals), Matt Noveskey (bass guitar, backing vocals), and Steve Schiltz (lead guitar), the multi-platinum group is known for their deeply personal lyrics, cinematic soundscapes, and electrifying live performances. With over a billion streams and eighteen Top 40 singles, including hits like “Hate Me,” “Into the Ocean,” “Oh My My,” and “I Hope You’re Happy,” Blue October has cultivated a fiercely loyal global fanbase.

From their platinum-certified album Foiled (2006) to the uplifting optimism of Home (2016) and the reflective poignancy of This Is What I Live For (2020), Blue October’s catalog chronicles a remarkable journey through struggle, redemption, and hope. Justin Furstenfeld’s advocacy for mental health and recovery has further cemented the band’s legacy as a voice for resilience, inspiring fans worldwide with his openness about addiction and sobriety, most notably captured in the acclaimed documentary Get Back Up.

Hailed for their unparalleled ability to connect and inspire through music, Blue October’s live performances are a testament to the transformative power of vulnerability, positivity, and raw emotion. Whether performing anthems or intimate ballads, the band continues to push boundaries and create music that resonates deeply, offering listeners a soundtrack for healing, celebration, and everything in between. The band is currently in the studio recording their thirteenth studio album.
