Stitched Up Heart has terrorized the music scene with an explosive mix of crunchy rock, punk, and subtle jazzy/pop undertones. The bands fresh to the ears music of loud guitars, memorable vocal melodies, and squealing metal leads, brings infectious sounds to revive the true name of Hard Rock.

2010 is the birth date of Stitched Up Heart and 2011 brought several opportunities to the table in an explosively short time. Their resume already holds SXSW, Warped Tour, and by the end of the third tour of this bands first year together they will have hit over 10 different states in the US.

Producer Mike Sarkisyan and Tommy Decker have polished up Stitched Up Heart’s 6 song EP “Escape The Nightmare” which the band will only be selling hard copies of live at their shows.

A few years ago, a dream to tour the world and make music was held close by Self-Control’s Ryan Botha. With strong determination, they rose to the top of Indonesia’s unsigned charts, gained recognition through various media outlets and in December 2008, opened for “Angels & Airwaves” in Singapore. Unfortunately, as time goes by, some things must come to an end.

With the dream still burning bright in Mid-March 2010, Ryan found himself in Perth, Western Australia. Collaborating with local musicians James White, Jim Garrett, Robin Winter and Dave Lee, they came together to create the lively and enthusiastic pop-punk hardcore band now known as “CUPIDFALLS”. Sharing the same dreams and drive to attain their goals, the band swiftly entered the studio and endured hours of hard practice whilst laying down various demo tracks. This however, was only the beginning of CUPIDFALLS.

The band has already performed numerous times at some of Perth’s leading venues such as “The Rocket Room”, “The Rosemount”, “Black Betty’s” and “Amplifier Bar”. Having also shared stages with popular national acts such as “I Am Villain”, “The Sunny Side Up” and “For Our Hero”, CUPIDFALLS definitely has what it takes to put on an electrifying performance and capture an audience.

“CUPIDFALLS started with burps and an incredibly enthusiastic entrance…They put on an incredible show…their bubbling enthusiasm was infectious and soon the whole floor was bouncing. Starting their set with little to no pit they finished it with one that covered the entire floor…”
– Jaz Walsh, Soundofthestage.com (Oh Snap, Black Betty’s)

CUPIDFALLS were selected from over 700 bands from across Australia to be a part of the top 10 finalists in Nova FM’s, “I Am with the Band” competition. CUPIDFALLS were then aired daily on national television during prime time viewing and performed at Fremantle’s Prison for the competition’s showcase, which was covered a broadcast live on Nova 93.7Fm. Having been interviewed by Channel 11 and Nova Fm, CUPIDFALLS have made their debut on Australian Television and have built a national fan base.

On April 1st 2011, the guys made their way to Sydney, NSW, to commence recording their debut EP “Dancing in Distortion” with popular Engineer / Producer Sonny Truelove (Angelas Dish, Before Their Eyes) at STL Studios. The album was then mixed by Sonny and mastered by Troy Glessner (Anberlin, MXPX, Underoath, Aiden) of Spectre Studios in the USA. Since getting back to Perth, their single “Drive Away” has been aired on 89.7Fm (Anarchy on Air) for 3 consecutive weeks (still counting) and has received thousands of plays on various sites over the Internet.

CUPIDFALLS has come a long way in what has been little over a year since the band formed. This is a credit to the member’s individual successes as musicians in the local scene, and with their persistence and determination they hope to further their dreams while dropping into breakdowns and moving audiences with their infectious live performances.

Hailing from Los Angeles California, the members of DRIVE A come together to forge a killer mix of pounding drums, lethal guitars, cascading bass lines and fierce vocals that converge to create a sound that pays respect to the past, stands up to the present and will kick down the door to the future. A switchblade to the soft, white underbelly of today’s watered-down state of music, DRIVE A are pure, raw energy – on stage and in the studio.

“Nothing=You” is the new video from Philadelphia-based singer LEIANA. The track comes off LEIANA’s third album “Lucky #3″ through FOF Label Group/EMI.

“An animated video is something I have always wanted to do. I think that cool, stylish animation always stands out, and with this video it tells the story of how my music came to be so it’s perfect,” commented Leiana. “I have used Tony Squindo’s artwork for everything I have ever done, so it was a no-brainer to have him do my video as well. He has also rocked artwork for METALLICA, KORN, the MISFITS among others, so adding this video to his plate worked with his artistic style.”

LEIANA’s “Lucky #3″ is an action-packed rock/metal/punk extravaganza that will delight fans of any genre. Recorded in Los Angeles, and produced by Eddie Wohl (SMILE EMPTY SOUL, ANTHRAX), the album captures the alt-rock energy of LEIANA’s stage show and melds it with infectious hooks that leaves listeners thirsty for more.

“Fall from Grace” is an American alternative/punk rock band formed in 2004 in Seattle, Washington. The band released their first major label album, Sifting Through the Wreckage.
