Настоящее имя: Ripped Heart Productions
Ripped Heart Productions was Christian based underground promoter out of Flint/Saginaw/Bay City, Michigan.
From 1988-2019, Ripped Heart Productions threw shows to build, support, and bring new music to our Mid-Michigan local scene. Through his fierce dedication, commitment, and over a 31-year history, Bryan provided a stage for over 1,900 performances by over 750 bands at far more than 250 shows. Ripped Heart invaded over 30 different venues and 13 cities across our little mitten. Throughout that time, bands came and went, venues opened and shut, the faces in the crowd changed… but one thing remained throughout all 31 years and 16 days, Bryan Hampton.
The 2020 book Punk, The Way I Remember It: Flyer Art of Ripped Heart Productions documents the history of Ripped Heart through concert flyer art and some historic writings. Punk The Way I Remember It is every one of the 786 bands, every band member that took the stage, every person that came to a show, every scenester to enter the pit, this is our story. It’s every smile, every hug, every friend, and every drop of blood shed, this is our story.Through a few words and 225 of the the original DIY show flyers, this is the story of 1,900 performances, by over 800 bands, at over 250 shows, invading over 30 venues across 13 Mid-Michigan Cities.
