Police open investigation into Brass Against singer’s urination incident at Welcome To Rockville

Brass Against, a metal and rock cover band that performed at the recent Welcome To Rockville festival, made headlines for a special stunt by singer Sophia Urista. Urista called for a volunteer from the audience, on whom she urinated during a cover of Rage Against The Machine. For those interested in such video footage, you can find it here at 3:21.

Later, the band commented on social media that Urista got a little carried away, and that such behaviour would not be seen at future shows of the band.

However, according to The Daytona Beach News-Journal, Florida authorities have opened an investigation into the incident. State law makes it illegal to expose your genitals in public. If Urista is found guilty of a crime, the maximum sentence is one year in prison or a $1,000 fine.

Brass Against will tour Europe next year with prog-metal band Tool.

We had a great time last night at Welcome to Rockville. Sophia got carried away. That's not something the rest of us expected, and it's not something you'll see again at our shows. Thanks for bringing it last night, Daytona.— Brass Against (@BrassAgainst) November 13, 2021
