PJ BOND – U.S. TOUR

Beginning on Sunday and through the month of November, PJ Bond (New Brunswick, NJ) will be touring the U.S., covering most of the East Coast and parts of the Midwest.

The ex-Outsmarting Simon front man – fresh off a two week trek across the U.K. – is playing shows in support of his latest full-length, You Didn’t Know I Was Alphabetical … not to mention the homeless / life on the road experiment formally known as the Year Of A Thousand Roommates. You can read about PJ’s daily nomadic adventures here.

Alphabetical is being released by Black Numbers in LP and CD format on November 10th, but you can pre-order a copy now or pick one up directly from PJ on tour.

It’s also worth mentioning that Bond has hitched a ride with label mates Static Radio NJ and The Arteries as they tour their way to The Fest for the weekend’s festivities. While he doesn’t have an “official” show, you can count on PJ playing the street corners of Gainesville or making an appearance at a house party or two.

INTRODUCING INITIALS

Initials is Fred Mascherino (The Color Fred/Taking Back Sunday), Andy Jackson (Hot Rod Circuit/Death In The Park), Steven Lucarelli (Once Nothing), and Anthony Martone (ex-VersaEmerge).

“With two singer/songwriters in the band, the sky’s the limit with creativity” says Andy of the new band, who together with Fred will be sharing singing duties on this project that they describe as American Rock Revival Music. Adds bassist Steve Lucarelli, “The four of us happened to be looking to join a band at the same time so we’re starting out on the same page. It’s been great seeing happens when we get in a room together. Our goal is to play great songs and hit the road immediately.”

The first batch of songs by Initials (which will be unveiled at their very first show on Wednesday evening) share a thematic thread very close to Fred. Motivated by a series of fires that terrorized his hometown of Coatesville, PA earlier this year (a number of arsonists were finally arrested in the spring but not before setting almost 50 fires), the songs he has written tell a tale of physical and emotional tolls on a couple trying to stay awake at night to protect their home while having to get through regular life during the day. He and Andy will spend the next few months fleshing out the rest of the album which is lated for a 2010 release.

Initials plays their first show at The Note in West Chester, PA tonight.

TOUR DATES
Oct 28 The Note – West Chester, PA
Oct 29 Cameo (21+) – Brooklyn, NY
Nov 12 Knitting Factory w/ Hawthorne Heights, Just Surrender – Brooklyn, NY
Nov 13 7@7 w/ The Scenic – Cherry Hill, NJ

LIFE ON REPEAT “AS I GREW” EP AVAILABLE NOW

Although the official release date isn’t until December 1st, Life On Repeat are giving fans a chance to get their new EP, As I Grew, over a month early! Furthermore, Life On Repeat and Equal Vision Records are empowering fans by allowing you to choose your own price for the album.

Just over two months ago, Life On Repeat entered Brian McTernan’s Salad Days Studio in Baltimore to record what would become As I Grew. “We had more than enough material written,” says guitarist, Andrew Baylis. However, the band narrowed it down to four songs: “Southern Girls”, “The Message Is You”, “Buzzkill”, and “Separation”. Even with just four tracks, the band’s wide range of influences can be heard loud and clear, from catchy pop hooks to heavy breakdowns, and come together seamlessly.

In support of the new album, Life On Repeat will head out on tour in December with Sent By Ravens (Tooth & Nail) and Hollywood Lies:
12/02 Wilkes Barre, PA @ Cafe Metro
12/03 Allentown, PA @ Crocodile Rock
12/04 Rockville Centre, NY @ The Vibe Lounge
