Seasons After is an American metal band from Wichita, Kansas formed in 2006.

Based in Wichita, Kansas, the band was formed in 2006. Initially, it consisted of Chris Dawson (guitar), Steve Frank (guitar), Michael Byers (bass), Tim Rails (drums), and Chris Schlichting (lead singer). In 2008, they released their debut album Through Tomorrow independently and were touring while also having daily job commitments.

The band was signed by ILG/Warner Music Group in 2009, which re-released their debut album in 2010. Seasons After gained some popularity with their cover version of Gerard McMann's "Cry Little Sister", the theme song from the 1987 movie The Lost Boys. The song reached No. 15 on Billboard's Rock Songs chart in May 2010.

Seasons After performed on The Vans "Warped Tour" twice and on "Taste of Chaos" tour once.

In August 2010, lead singer Chris Schlichting quit the band. No official statement explaining the reasons for his departure was ever published. He was quickly replaced by Tony Housh before the band's US tour in September 2010. Almost in the wake of that change, the band faced a dispute with their record label which lasted nearly three years. During that period, the band was almost inactive on social media, rarely updating the official sources with pictures taken in the studio. On March 22, 2014, the band released a long statement on their official Facebook page in which cited the aforementioned dispute to be the main reason for such a long inactivity. In the same statement, the band announced their independent status and revealed that their second album was long since completed and would be called Calamity Scars & Memoirs.

On April 18, 2014, the band released the song "Wake Me" which became the first single off the second record. For some period, it was available on the official site as a free download. On June 13, 2014, the second single "So Long Goodbye" was published on YouTube as a lyric video. The album was released digitally on September 26, 2014, and physically on February 24, 2015.
