We Are the Fallen is an American Alternative Rock band that was formed in 2009. It consists of former American Idol contestant Carly Smithson on vocals, Marty O'Brien on bass, former Evanescence members Ben Moody and John LeCompt on guitar, as well as Rocky Gray on drums. In several interviews, the band revealed that the band's name was created by singer songwriter Hana Pestle, Moody's girlfriend and friend of the band, in reference to the band member's musical pasts. Marty O'Brien has been quoted as saying, "I feel that each member was brought into this band because of past situations that either fell apart, disbanded, or musical projects we had going on that didn't work out the way we had hoped. I feel like we are somewhat of a band of misfits coming together to create something special that we could not have created individually."
