Citizen Soldier is a rock band from Salt Lake City, Utah. They were formed in a psychiatric hospital in 2016 when frontman Jake Segura wrote the lyrics for Let It Burn.[1] [2] [3] They released their first single in 2017.
Since their formation in 2016, the band discusses mental health issues through their music. They have stated that their mission is to fight stigma and provide a "group therapy dynamic."[4] [5] The band's name Citizen Soldier is the band's attempt to personify the struggles being fought within, and the band's goal to shine a light on the everyday struggles of those who feel overlooked and unappreciated.[6] [7] [8]
In 2017, after a few singles, the band initially released just one EP[9] before releasing their first album, Relentless, in 2019. The next album Down the Rabbit Hole was released in 2020,[10] followed by the two-part album This Is Your Sign Part I in 2021 and This Is Your Sign Part II in 2022.
In May 2022, Citizen Soldier announced their fifth album, Scarecrow, with another 18 songs. The complete album was released on December 14, 2022.[11] [12]
The band typically released the songs of new albums as singles first before being released collectively as an album.[13] [14]
In 2023 they accompanied the band Smash Into Pieces on their tour through North America and Canada.[15] Together they recorded an acoustic version of the song Six Feet Under from Smash Into Pieces.[16] In the same year, in November they released a new album ICU.
In November 2024 they released the album Icarus.
