About Balance and Composure
Balance and Composure, fronted by singer and guitarist Jon Simmons, came up in the late-2000s Pennsylvania post-hardcore and emo scene and released its first records through No Sleep Records. The debut album Separation and its follow-up The Things We Think We're Missing paired heavy, distorted guitars with Simmons's hushed, strained vocals, a sound that sat close to grunge as much as to emo.
On Light We Made the band moved toward a cleaner, more textured sound, with programmed drums and electronic layers under the guitars. The group then went quiet for several years before regrouping for its later work.
