Sebastian Bach to play Belly Up Tavern on 4/21/2015

Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach, CA

Sebastian Bach

Sebastian Bach has sold in excess of 20 million records worldwide as lead singer with his former band, Skid Row and as a solo artist. Sebastian Bach’s most recent solo album, KICKING & SCREAMING, was met with universal acclaim and praise with Outburn declaring, “Sebastian Bach delivers a balls out gang of mountainous hooks, titanic grooves and straight down the middle hard rock.” Far from just being a multi-platinum recording artist, the singer/songwriter/actor/entertainer has expanded his career over the past decade to include episodic television with a 5-season recurring role on the CW’s hit series “Gilmore Girls”, starring roles on Broadway (“Jekyll & Hyde”, “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”) and national touring companies (“Jesus Christ Superstar”), and has appeared regularly on MTV and VH1.

LORD HOWLER is all about the twin guitar attack, hooks you can remember and evil as recreation.

Sanctuary Play Ramona Mainstage 11/22/14

SANCTUARY to kick off West Coast tour this week

                                 

Having recently released their first new album in 25 years, Seattle’s metal legends, SANCTUARY, are now ready to hit the West coast this week! See below for all upcoming dates:

SANCTUARY live:
Nov. 14 – Seattle, WA – S7
Nov. 15 – Vancouver, BC – Rickshaw
Nov. 16 – Portland, OR – Hawthorne
Nov. 19 – Anaheim, CA – The Grove
Nov. 20 – Las Vegas, NV – LVCS
Nov. 21 – Phoenix, AZ – Club Red
Nov. 22 – San Diego, CA – Ramona Mainstage

SANCTUARY’s new album, The Year The Sun Died, is the long-awaited follow-up to the band’s first two studio albums that were released on Epic Records: Refuge Denied (1987) and Into the Mirror Black (1989). Singer Warrel Dane’s sky-high vocals combined with guitarist Lenny Rutledge’s more mature take on classic thrash riffs separated the group from the throes of metal acts struggling to get noticed at the time. With The Year The Sun Died, SANCTUARY continues that legacy that they started decades ago, delivering yet another fresh take on “classic-sounding” metal. For a preview of the album, be sure to check out the following previously released singles:  “Frozen“, “Exitium (Anthem of the Living)“, “Arise and Purify“.

To purchase The Year The Sun Died, head over to CM Distro for a variety of physical formats: http://www.cmdistro.com/Artist/Sanctuary/11681

SANCTUARY line-up 2014:
Warrel Dane – Vocals
Lenny Rutledge – Guitars

Dave Budbill – Drums
Brad Hull – Guitars

Down With Webster, Jonny Craig Play SOMA 1/16/15

Down With Webster Announce US Tour With Jonny Craig

  

Party For Your Life

Available Now: bit.ly/1CNcKux

Watch The Video For “One In A Million”

Here: http://bit.ly/ZiebV4

Toronto, ON – November 17, 2014 – Toronto-based pop-rock-rap group, Down With Webster, is thrilled to announce their upcoming U.S. tour with Jonny Craig, Kyle Lucas, and Captain Midnite! The band is currently finishing up their current tour with Timeflies and will be heading out on the road with Jonny Craig starting on January 14th in West Hollywood, CA. See below for the full list of dates. Down With Webster have recently been in the studio working on new music with Matt Squire (Ariana Grande, Panic! At The Disco, 3OH!3) to follow up their latest album Party For Your Life. For more information on Down With Webster, please visit: www.downwithwebster.com

From their first performance at a high school talent show, Down With Webster have created their own flavor of genre-bending sounds, and blown away audiences ever since.  After winning the “Best Unsigned Band” recognition from Rogers Mobile, DWW attracted attention from record labels, and musical heavyweights including Sir Richard Branson, Timbaland, and KISS front man Gene Simmons. Today, the group is built of two emcees (Cam Hunter & Bucky), a DJ (Diggy), a charismatic lead singer (Pat Gillett), and one of the most talented rhythm sections in the game (Andrew “Marty” Martino on drums, Tyler Armes on bass/keys). One might describe their sound as hip-hop with a hint of electro-alternative, delivered by a kick ass rock band.

In the few years since practicing in their parents garage, Down With Webster’s songs have charted at Top40 Radio, amassed more than 500,000 Facebook likes, sold 900,000 downloads and 100,000 albums. Their videos have been streamed over 15 million times, and they’ve rocked hundreds of shows. It’s their tireless pursuit of creating the greatest party on stage that has won them loyal believers coast to coast, and earned them this description from UPVENUE Magazine: “It’s like taking a handful of fireworks, lighting them, then throwing them in to a barrel of fireworks.”  

Because their music defies classification, and they’ve been called “the second coming of The Beastie Boys,” Down With Webster has earned the respect of, and both shared the stage with, and performed with, LMFAO, Timbaland, Ludacris, Lil Jon, 3OH!3 and even KISS.

Down With Webster’s new album Party For Your Life debuted as the #1 digital album in Canada (#2 overall on the charts), and enlisted collaborators Ludvin (Childish Gambino), Boi-1da (Drake, Eminem), and have reunited with production duo The Maven Boys (Meek Mill, Childish Gambino) to help them continue their twist of conventional music genres.  Songs from the album have already been licensed by NBC’s hit show “The Voice,” as well as CBC for the 2014 Winter Olympics. The band also recently wrapped up a U.S. tour with Hoodie Allen this past spring.

Old Man Canyon Plays The Casbah 11/11/14



Vancouver’s Old Man Canyon is touring down the West Coast in support of debut EP, Phantoms & Friends. The dark-folk outfit have a sound that blends Coldplay with Edward Sharp & The Magnetic Zeros and Margo & The Nuclear So & Sos.
Phantoms and Friends is veiled in mystery, shrouded in the aura of a dark dreamland. AudioTree says Old Man Canyon, “Speaks on dreams, doubt and regret in simple but well-structured phrasing. Their authentic approach to musical creation puts poignant thoughts above contemporaries. The willingness to break folk rules contributes to this authenticity.”
“Wiser”

Old Man Canyon is born from the efforts of front man Jett Pace and since the release of Phantoms & Friends earlier this year, the music from the EP has been featured in NBC’s About A Boy, MTV’s Awkward, Showtime’s Shameless and the Bravo seriesSuits, to name a few.  Recently their song, “Take Me Higher” was featured in Sons of Anarchy. Perez Hilton calls the music, “Moody and melodic” and says, “Old Man Canyon is bringing some freshness with their throwback sound.”

Old Man Canyon Tour Dates:
Nov 11 – San Diego, CA – The Casbah (Buy Tix)
Nov 12 – Costa Mesa, CA – Casa (Buy Tix)
Nov 13 – Los Angeles, CA – The Hotel Café (Buy Tix)
Nov 14 – Santa Barbara, CA – Velvet Jones (Buy Tix)
