Craig Mabbitt
Craig Edward Mabbitt (born April 9, 1987) is an American singer who is the frontman of the rock band Escape the Fate. He was formerly the lead vocalist for Blessthefall and The Word Alive. He is also the lead vocalist of his side-project band Dead Rabbitts.
In his early childhood, Mabbitt required the frequent and scheduled use of a nebulizer as a result of severe asthma. He also had to attend a special class due to a speech disorder, but nevertheless he overcame these setbacks, and in his adolescent years, realized his "dream of becoming a singer in a rock band."
While with Blessthefall, Mabbitt released two self-released EPs and one full-length album. Their first full album, His Last Walk, was released on April 10, 2007, on Science Records/Ferret Music. It produced four singles, the last of which, "Rise Up", was released after he left the band, and he does not appear in the video.
In the middle of their 2007 European Tour with Silverstein and The Vincent Black Shadow, Mabbitt left the band for personal reasons, and was replaced by Beau Bokan, the former lead vocalist for Take the Crown.
Mabbitt founded the metalcore band The Word Alive in Phoenix in 2008 as a side project while also performing in Escape the Fate. He and the group recorded songs for an EP that was never officially released, and November 2008 the band dropped Mabbitt, claiming complications due to his involvement with Escape the Fate. Mabbitt was replaced by Tyler Smith, formerly the bassist of Greeley Estates and singer/keyboardist of In Fear and Faith; since then, The Word Alive has released an EP and six albums.
After singer Ronnie Radke was sentenced to five years' probation for battery charges (and then two years' imprisonment for failure to report to his probation officer) Escape the Fate turned to Mabbitt, who had played with Escape the Fate on the Black on Black Tour while with Blessthefall. After several trial shows he became the official new singer and they entered the studio to record their second full-length album This War Is Ours, which was released on October 21, 2008. It was the first Escape the Fate album with Mabbitt as singer; the album was a commercial success, entering at No. 35 on the Billboard 200 and selling 13,000 copies in the first week.
The third studio album from the band and second to feature Mabbitt was Escape the Fate which was released on November 2, 2010, and is the band's most successful album to date charting No. 25 on the Billboard 200, No. 1 at Hard Rock Albums, No. 14 in a Rock Albums, No. 13 in Alternative and Independent charts and No. 118 in Digital Albums Chart.
On May 14, 2013, the band released their fourth studio album and third with Mabbitt, Ungrateful. On October 30, 2015, the band released their fifth studio album and fourth with Mabbitt "Hate Me". The band released their sixth studio album, I Am Human, on March 30, 2018. On April 16, 2021, the band released their seventh studio album and sixth with Mabbitt, Chemical Warfare. On September 1, 2023, the band released their eighth studio album and seventh with Mabbitt, Out of the Shadows.
