It is with heavy hearts that we honour our friend and ex-manager Brandon Semple.
Over the past weekend, Brandon unexpectedly and sadly passed away. We all are deeply troubled by the loss of such a wonderful person and it has been extremely hard for us to cope with his death over the past few days.
We in Hail The Villain remember Brandon as a happy and driven person. He was a fan of the band and always wanted the best for us. His charm was undeniable, his heart was always in the right place and most importantly Brandon loved life and the people around him.
Brandon was also instrumental in guiding our band through the early stages of our career which included our huge steps toward The Agency Group, Coalition Entertainment and Warner Music. He also came with us on our first Canadian tour and to us his legacy will never be forgotten.
It is unfortunate that Brandon's passing has left many incredible people behind. We can't even begin to imagine the pain his family is feeling. Our condolences go out to them and we hope they receive all the comfort and time needed to cope with this tragedy.
All of us who knew Brandon will keep his memory close. We will not forget the years we spent with him.
Brandon, we thank you for all the wonderful things you did for us and we are truly going to miss you.
Bryan, Joe, Chad and Drew.
