John Moret - Vocals and Keyboard Ryan Nichols - Guitar and BGVs Rik Stanek- Drums and Nintendo Matthew Johnston - Bass An Embrace of Angels was a screamo band from Owatonna, MN. Late in the fall/early winter of 2001 An Embrace of Angels started practicing and writing the songs that eventually became the album "...The Graceful Art of Failure..." which was recorded at Cathouse Studios in Sioux Falls, SD in 2002. They continued playing shows around southern Minnesota for the following year and began writing new material. They recorded these new songs on the album "'Ere January Be Unwintered" in April of 2003, once again returning to Cathouse Studios. 'Ere January was set to be released through Framework Records in late 2003/early 2004. Framework ran into financial problems that resulted in this never happening. As a result the album was never released officially, but the band has made it available online through Soulseek and other methods. After the failed attempt to release their second album, and following a long hiatus, An Embrace of Angels broke up in 2004. John and Matt joined two friends and formed Ghosts shortly after. Their album "'Ere January Be Unwintered" is available for free here: https://anembraceofangels.bandcamp.com/releases <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/An+Embrace+of+Angels">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
