About this user
West Coast melodic rock band fronted by Dean-Anthony, a singer/songwriter with a soaring six-octave range that the band uses for good (rock) and not evil; the band builds a feverish arena rock sound around infectious melodies. The band was started in New York, while Dean-Anthony had the distinction of being the world's ONLY resident of the Empire State Building--he lived in his office, on the 28th floor, which doubled late night as rehearsal space.
Dean-Anthony, the Latin wonder, is a California boy, raised on the rough streets of Westwood (very close to the impoverished Bel Air); Lead Guitarist Guillermo, the Spanish icon, once ruled the wild streets of Madrid, Spain; Drummer Fernando is from Acapulco, Mexico; and Yale alum Bass God Peter brings it all together with his soaring brilliance. Each brings to the bunch a myriad of contradicting musical influences that somehow fuse beautifully to create a sonically orgasmic sound. The band took the summer of 2008 off, to allow Dean-Anthony to sell his soul to American Idol, but regrouped in September, after he bought it back, to build a new, more intricately ambitious sound that would redefine the dynamic of the band and it's ultimate plans for 2009 and beyond. They want to keep the balls of rock, with the shake-your-assiness of dance and the awesomeness of just plain good music to round it off.
These guys write music about faith, fulfillment and redemption; the faith (in life, in love, in self) we often lose; the fulfillment we blindly hunt; the redemption we stumble upon but never expect to find; and the life we string together in between...
Following the band's ambitious underground debut release "The Pilgrimage of an Abstract Being" (still available on Napster, Rhapsody, iTunes--among many others--for immediate download), the band has released the "It's Not Me, It's YOU" EP with lead singles "I'll Never Go To Hell" and the soaring full band "OverSung."
