You my have already heard of Jeff Gutt, as he has appeared in two seasons of the American reality television series The X Factor. Jeff finished in second place in 2013 and in 2014 was dubbed as one of the most 'influential' X Factor USA contestants of all-time by FoxWeekly.

Jeff is also known as the former lead vocalist of the nu metal band Dry Cell and for playing in variuos minor acts in the Detroit area, where he is from.

Rival City (initially named Rival City Heights) are Jeff's new creature; with him in the band we can find ex-Evanescence's Will Hunt on drums, ex-Filter, Device Gene Lenardo on guitar and KC Jenkins on bass.

The first release of the band as Rival City is the Kevin Churko (Ozzy, Slash, Papa Roach) produced double single Fading Out / What's Going On, the latter a cover of the classic Marvin Gaye track.

"I'm beyond excited to finally be putting out the music we have worked on for over a year," Gutt said. "Fading Out is one of the first songs we wrote and I can't wait to hear what the song means to our fans.

Fading Out is an awesome, heartfelt, alternative melodic rock track a la The Calling/Lifehouse: stream it clicking on the image and check What's Going On following this link.
