The Dear Hunter is an indie rock band that originated in
Providence, Rhode Island. It was originally started as a side
project by Casey Crescenzo, a full-time member of The Receiving End
of Sirens, but eventually became his main project after he was
asked to leave The Receiving End of the Sirens. He expanded the
scope of The Dear Hunter into a 6-album project that covered the
birth, life, and death of a boy known as "The Dear Hunter".
