Sugarblade was started in July 2004 when Miguel Staunton and Alec Brietzke first sat down together to jam out some songs. Both musicians had just come from broken bands and had been looking forward to doing an acoustic project to take a bit of a break. Realizing that the songs had real potential the duo decided to try the full-band approach once again. Recently coming out of a band herself, (Maverick recording artist, "Lillix"), Kim Urhahn seemed an ideal addition on drums. Soon after, Greg M., an old friend of Alec's, joined the trio on bass, thus completing the band. It became obvious after only a few live shows that Sugarblade had something special. The band gained a loyal following instantly and has been playing relentlessly to rave reviews and an ever-growing fanbase. The band released a 7-song EP entitled "Faux" in July of 2006, which has been selling steadily and exposing them to more and more fans. Several independent and college radio stations have recently added Sugarblade to their regular rotation and the band is poised to take their music to the highest level possible.
Sugarblade considers themselves a rock band with a hint of power-pop. The chemistry of this foursome lies in the fact that each member comes from a different musical background in terms of influences and styles. Take an instantly-recognizable vocalist with a style that is a blend of Morrisey, Muse, and Peter Gabriel. Add a guitarist heavily immersed in the glamrock and metal of the 80's, with a incredible knack for melody. Now add a rhythm section consisting of a rock-solid drummer with an ear for detail, and a metal bassist with a love for all music dark and angry. Combine those elements with great songwriting, a love for what they do and a sound all their own and you have Sugarblade.

My names Brad. I've been in many bands, but for now am choosing to do my own work on my computer just for fun. I play my own guitar/bass, and I'm a vocalist overall so I sing, of course. I also play keyboard, rather, I (try) to play keyboard lol. I just use drum loops for some songs and then make the songs around the beats and write lyrics and there I go...another song!!

I am all over the map with styles! I do Metal, Heavy Rock, Rock, Mellow, Depressing, and on and on! I love it all!! I can scream as well as sing! I always enjoy music and my life revolves around making music!! I hope you enjoy the tunes! Take care!
Never be afraid to talk to me, I love to talk...sometimes too much.. :P

• The End is good
•  Real lyrics and Real music
•  Sombre but not sad
•  Made me smile
•  I'm loving this song.

The Rooftops formed the end of December 2008 to early January 2009.

Since, they have begun recording material for their unsigned debut album.

It all started a couple years ago. It was a bit strange to start getting airplay before I'd ever performed in front of an audience. Sure it was a little weird hearing my songs on the radio while I was still in the studio recording my EP. Yeah, it was quite surprising to know that the songs I was recording just for the sake of having a record of my own music were out there reaching others.

Still... we appreciate what falls in our lap.

Since that crazy year we've played all sorts of great shows.

Somehow I ended up playing bass on Sweet Misery... something to do with a last minute change and a 5 string.

So what? Oh... Sweet Misery features a line about a paramedic rushing to the - nevermind... you'll have to listen to the track.

Our first drummer is now a guitar player and sings in a punkish band. It's not as bad as when you find out your ex came out of the closet after they dumped you though.

Jonathan played bass. He's like a musician magnet. I think he gets propositioned by bands at every show we play. Now he's in Victoria. Chris Brock is taking a shot at the role.

We found our drummer on Craigs List of all things. I can't remember how much we got paid by his last band.

Mickael is the singer guy and guitar player. Someone recently told him he rocks it old school. He hasn't quite recovered from that yet.

Mike likes science, family, and a little ecclecticism.

Karrigan from Orlando, Florida consists of Chase Williams, Keith Allen, Ryan Klein, Mike Mercado and Austin O'Laughlin. These five experienced and talented musicians came together to provide a new fresh sound for pop/dance rock. Formed in 2007, the band has already played with prominent artists at the 2007(Ernie Ball) and 2009(Kevin Says) Orlando Van's Warped Tour and many other venues throughout Florida and the Eastern United States. Karrigan recently recorded in January 2008 in Woodstock, NY with producers Michael Birnbaum & Chris Bittner (Coheed and Cambria, The Sleeping, Straylight Run). In 2008, Karrigan spent all summer hand-selling their debut release, "My Conscience Got the Best of Me" EP and sold over 6000 records and had great reviews on absolutepunk.net and throughout the rest of the music world. The band currently has finished recording and plans to release their new summer sampler at the 2009 Van's Warped Tour. They are excited to show the world their fresh new sound as they grow as a band and grow in popularity throughout the United States connecting with their audience through upbeat songs about life, love and partying under the Florida sun. Karrigan's ability to connect with their fans is undeniable and evident on their always active myspace page. This talented new group of musicians will continue to rock audiences throughout the U.S. playing the music they love for their large and expanding fan base. Expect great things from the band in 2009!

SUPERMASSIVE QUAzAR BIO

SQ is literally a one-man musical army. Led by Dominic Lamarre, who by the time he was 34 years old, recorded more than 300 songs, from cool ROCK to very radio-friendly POP to great BALLADS to orchestrated INSTRUMENTALS to indie SOUNDTRACK to just about anything you can imagine.

Growing up with a keen hear, his roots were soaked into CLASSICAL music, ROCK and POP greats like THE BEATLES, QUEEN, PAT BENATAR, DURAN DURAN and also (gasp!) ABBA (not even afraid to admit it the least!). Inspired by a wide number of artists and styles – from NIRVANA, SMASHING PUMPKINS, GREEN DAY, TRAIL OF DEAD, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE and RADIOHEAD to metal’s finest OPETH to lesser known geniuses like AKIRA YAMAOKA and sElf, always admiring a great female voice/female-fronted band like WITHIN TEMPTATION, NINA GORDON, XANDRIA, AFTER FOREVER, SANDRINE, videogame music guru NUBUO UEMTASU as well as magnificent composer such as DANNY ELFMAN, JERRY GOLDSMITH And JOHN WILLIAMS.

Self-taught, Dominic had never touched a guitar until he saw NIRVANA’s UNPLUGGED in April 1994. Then bought a friend’s cheap acoustic guitar (who had electric strings on it, a trademark he carries to this very day) for 60$, had another write basic guitar chords on a piece of paper, and then started writing songs the day after.

Then came HAPPIER THAN YOU, in 1997. His first band. Something special between 4 friends at the time but that never truly came to fruition. He decided to pursue on his own, creating (properly) SUPERMASSIVE QUAzAR, in 2006. But SQ wasn’t meant to only be a band of one. It was meant to be a musical industry by itself. 300+ songs (recorded, 600+ written) in a mere 6 years is just too much for one band to handle. Plus since SUPERMASSIVE QUAzAR (band) is more into heavy-rock-melodic-pop, not all songs could fit into this category (though to explore musically is a motto nevertheless).

Aside for his publishing deal, many, many recordings and the soundtrack for indie film “DECADENCE PSYCHOTIQUE’, he also joined forces briefly with one of the band members of HAPPIER THAN YOU in 2008 and created a little side project (that created about 20-25 recordings in one year, still) named TEARS OF HEL.

PULzE, SUPERMASSIVE QUAzAR’s first self-produced album was released in 2008.

Parade Rest began in 2007 under the name Between The Lines, with Tyler Stutz and Vito Schiralli on guitars and original drummer and bassist, Nick and The Adam respectively. Over the course of the next 11 months, Tyler and Vito searched for serious musicians to complete their band, as their constant rotating bandmates were not so dedicated. After four drummers and two bassists were disposed of over time, they eventually found Marshall Brennan and Evan Woolley for the parts, talented and dedicated, they were the holy grail in this quest for musicians.

well, i'm a small town girl from bakersfield, ca. that's right, bakersfield. i'm fluent in cow-tipping and doing donuts in a dirt field. honestly though, i wouldn't trade my childhood for anything. let's see, i started singing as soon as i could talk. no seriously, there's pictures of me with the water hose in the front yard doin' my thing for the neighbors. making music has given me indescribable pleasure and is a personal release in soooooo many ways. so here i am, simply sharing a few tracks i've recorded. hope you like 'em!

There is a New Kid in Town...And he's Smokin' Ray Burnt. He is a Smokin' young guitarist from the highest peaks of the Smokey Mountains. He is a real throwback to the good ol' days of the Instrumental Blues. Is he the next crazy Hendrix or the younger soul of a B.B. King? Maybe.. Go on, Find Out for yourselfAnd So it Begins...Smokin' Ray was born on June 1, 1977, high on top of Smokey Mountain. His Mother and Father were both musicians ( His father played the fiddle, his mother played the accordion.) They had a decent life, poor but not without. As the story goes, Ray was struck by lightning and burnt nothing but his soul. Something came inside of him and now he is what he is. He wasn't hurt...He was just destined for something... He was destined to play the guitar. So from high upon the tree tops the first song he ever heard was the soft/heavy tone of B.B. King's, 'The Thrill is Gone'. That was like magic to his ears. The next? Jimi Hendrix, 'Red House'. 'WOW! He thought to himself, 'I have to do that'. And so he did. He studied all the greats, even as far back as the great Robert Johnson. He learned from John Lee Hooker, SRV, Leadbelly, Chuck Berry, and many others. Lightning Hopkins, 'Lonesome Dog Blues' scared him to shivers. Tucked away in a little studio he recorded by himself. No one could ever guess what would come out of there next. His tone could fall a mountain, his playing could hypnotise you. His brain...insane.Over his short span of playing I think that he really developed his own style. Is he Chicago? Maybe more Texas Style? Perhaps Modern Electric Blues? I don't know, Whatever it is, He calls it the 'Smokey Mountain Style'. Whether SRB is playing clean or dirty you can tell it's him. As you can tell from his acoustic picture and the way he plays, he likes Heavy Metal, Rock and Punk. He is very much influenced by such bands as Metallica, Megadeth, Nirvana, Green Day, AC/DC, Guns & Roses and more. But his true calling is the blues. All you have to do is hear his songs and you will be shown.Where does all this lead up to? I don't know. Maybe something new or maybe just a blip on the radar. We will have to see.Some day his Guitar will quit burning,But until then... Keep on Smokin' Ray Burnt.Available music is Awesome

Michael has been singing lead vocals, and playing lead guitar/keyboards in rock bands since the tender age of twelve, playing music ranging from 1950s rock and roll to full-bore thrash metal, and everything in-between. He picked up playing the guitar when he was fourteen and has been amazing audiences with his talents ever since. He began writing and recording in the mid-1990s, and has been a non-stop blur until the current day! His songs and style are inspired by artists like Nickelback, Creed, Good Charlotte, Green Day, Evanescence, Maroon 5, Nightwish, Van Halen, Asia, Boston, Def Leppard, Dream Theatre, Edenbridge, ELP, Judas Priest, King Crimson, Led Zeppelin, Rush, Yes, and ZZ Top.

Michael was fatally infected with FM radio that was playing constantly throughout his childhood, in the house and in the car, along with a scattering of Beach Boys 45s that he inherited from his Mother. He began playing guitar and writing songs around 14 years of age. Magazines, posters, CDs, cassettes and records were constantly scattered throughout his room, and a dream is born. Picture him sitting alone in a room playing and singing into a cassette recorder. Then, he was involved in a seemingly endless string of bands, where he cut his teeth and his unique style was germinated. Then, he moved to California in the mid-90s, following his heart and career. Over the next 15 years or so, he played and recorded with a chain of club rock bands, as well as many solo performances and recordings. Currently writing a book of poetry, based on existentialism and romantic meanderings, with a working title of “Better Late than Never.”

"Trinity" will be pre-released at the first stadium concert of the 2007 "Holy Avenger" tour on August 25th , 2007 at the "Summerfaire '07 World Peace Concert" at The Orange Show Stadium in San Bernardino, California, along with a half dozen Midwest dates in mid August! “Trinity’s” official release will be in November 2007. The full-length CD, "Holy Avenger" will see its official release on Valentine’s Day 2008, where it will be available at iTunes, eMusic, CD Baby and select retail stores around the world, along with every date and venue associated with the world tour to support this ground-breaking release!
