Augustana signed with Richard Gandy of RISE UP Agency for management.
Augustana are booked by Wasserman Music.
Augustana is an American rock band formed in 2002 in southern Illinois, now based in San Diego, California. The group, originally consisting of lead vocalist and keyboardist Dan Layus, guitarist Josiah Rosen, and other members, gained widespread recognition with their hit single "Boston" from their debut album, All the Stars and Boulevards (2005). This album showcased their melodic sound and emotional lyrics, establishing them as a significant presence in the alternative rock scene. Over the years, Augustana has released six studio albums and six EPs, exploring various musical styles while remaining true to their roots. After a series of lineup changes, Layus became the sole remaining member and continued to tour and produce music under the Augustana name. Their later works, including Life Imitating Life (2014) and singles like "For Now, Forever," reflect an evolution in sound while maintaining the band’s signature heartfelt approach. With a dedicated fanbase and a rich discography, Augustana continues to be a relevant force in contemporary rock music.
