Indonesian Rock Trio VOICE OF BACEPROT Reveal Protest Anthem “The Enemy Of Earth Is You” Against Indifference to Climate Change

DT: MAY 19, 2023

FM: KELLY WALSH, SRO PR

INDONESIAN ROCK TRIO
VOICE OF BACEPROT
PROTEST AGAINST INDIFFERENCE TO CLIMATE CHANGE
IN NEW SINGLE
“THE ENEMY OF EARTH IS YOU”
FROM DEBUT ALBUM
‘RETAS’
DUE IN JULY

BAND JOIN ‘MUSIC DECLARES EMERGENCY (MDE),’
A GLOBAL GROUP OF ARTISTS, MUSIC INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS AND ORGANISATIONS THAT STAND TOGETHER TO DECLARE A CLIMATE AND ECOLOGICAL EMERGENCY

Indonesian all-girl rock trio VOICE OF BACEPROT (VOB) have come forward with a galvanizing new single, “The Enemy Of Earth Is You,” a call-to-action protest anthem against indifference to climate change. In 2016 several natural disasters wreaked havoc across Indonesia—no less than 1,985 happened, breaking a 10-year record of the most natural disasters ever occurring in a calendar year. One of the most devastating of them was the flash floods that swept the regency of Garut in West Java.

Born and raised in a small village called Singajaya (found at the foot of a mountain in one corner of Garut), the band members were not directly affected, but the floods deeply emotionally impacted vocalist/guitarist Marsya, bassist Widi, and drummer Sitti, inspiring them to write “The Enemy Of Earth Is You.” The single expresses their broken hearts and agony following the above events.

Taken from their much-anticipated debut album RETAS due in July (exact date tba), “The Enemy Of Earth Is You” is available now at your preferred digital streaming platform HERE and can also be heard streaming below.

Coinciding with the release of “The Enemy Of Earth Is You,” VOB have aligned themselves with over 6,600 musicians and music industry workers worldwide by joining Music Declares Emergency (MDE), a global movement bringing together musicians, music industry professionals, and organisations to use music as a means for raising public awareness about climate issues and the protection of life on Earth. With their NO MUSIC ON A DEAD PLANET campaign, MDE have garnered support from some of the world’s most renowned artists and bands, including Billie Eilish, Arcade Fire, The 1975, Imogen Heap, Fatboy Slim, Major Lazer, and Tom Morello.

In the aftermath of the flood and natural disasters, Marsya recalls: “At that moment, we came to think humans are the real Earth’s chief antagonists. We are the most foolish and gullible, spending our time synthesising and justifying all kinds of greed by destroying the world. We are the ones who have been ineptly killing ourselves!”

“It is a song that summarises our loathing towards anyone who becomes an enemy of the Earth,” she adds.” On the flip side, the single reminds us not to turn into one of them.”

With the help of producer and NTRL guitarist Coki Bollemeyer, VOB set about rearranging the song’s rhythm flow, initially based on some of the most prevalent nu-metal riffs from the late nineties and early noughties, to assert their collective anxiety and fury. The result is a composition articulating a sense of sadness yet wrapped in VOB‘s trademark ferocious sound.

ABOUT VOICE OF BACEPROT
VOICE OF BACEPROT (pronounced ‘bah-che-prot’) formed in Garut, West Java in 2014. Consisting of Firdda “Marsya” Kurnia (age 22) on vocals and guitar, Widi Rahmawati (age 21) on bass, and Euis “Sitti” Aisyah (age 22) on drums, the word “baceprot” from their band name comes from the Sundanese language meaning “noisy”. It was chosen to represent the style of music that they play.

VOB began to turn heads when a video of them performing a cover of a song by Rage Against The Machine in 2015 became popular on YouTube. The three-piece continued to produce more videos of them covering songs by their idols, including Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, and Slipknot, which garnered even more attention from both local and international media, and they quickly went viral.

Besides their obvious prodigious musical talent, it was also the unique and contradictory combination of heavy rock/metal music and their wearing of the hijab on stage that caught the eye of media from across the globe. The trio, who are all Muslims, have faced opposition from conservative Muslims, in their hometown of Garut. They sing in English language as well as Bahasa Indonesia and Sundanese, which has gained them a worldly fanbase outside Indonesia.

In 2018, VOB signed a deal with Jakarta-based booking agency Amity Asia. Not long after, they released their long-awaited self-written debut single “School Revolution.” Produced by Stephan Santoso–who also plays the guitar for Musikimia–the single propelled them to international stardom. They were personally invited by legendary guitarist Slash to meet him backstage when Guns N’ Roses held a concert at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta in November 2018. Further confirmation of their burgeoning reputation came via personal shout-outs from their idols Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello and Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea on social media, along with Living Colour guitarist Vernon Reid. Shortly after they graduated from high school at Muslim Senior High School Madrasah Aliyah in 2020, Marsya, Sitti, and Widi relocated to Jakarta with the support from their new management agency, 12WIRED.

After several years of blood, sweat, and tears, VOB are set to unveil their greatest work yet in July 2023: debut album RETAS.

Out across digital platforms tomorrow (Friday, May 19), “Purple” is “a fast-paced musical memorial to those lost to drug abuse early on in the grunge music scene,” according to the band—which is comprised of former Army Ranger and Special Forces soldier and rhythm guitarist Jason Everman (ex-Nirvana, Soundgarden), former Delta Force Operator and lead guitarist Brad Thomas, former Marine Raider Tyson Stahl on bass, Air Force Chief Master Sergeant Fred Cowell on vocals and Navy veteran Justin Myers on drums. “It’s filled with lyrical references to many of our favorite artists who departed long before their time.”

Coming off the musically powerful and evocative single “Breathe,” Las Vegas-based modern rock band CRASHING WAYWARD—vocalist Peter Summit, guitarists Stacey David Blades and David Harris, bassist Carl Raether, and drummer Shon McKee—today (May 17) share the music video for their new single “Closer” ahead of its May 19 digital release. Powered by Summit’s striking voice, multiple guitar textures and gripping fast-paced rhythm, the song “speaks to relationships—specifically unhealthy, addictive romantic relationships,” explains Summit. “It focuses on the obsession someone might have and also to the awareness that this might not be the right place for that person.” Watch the video, which captures the band’s onstage dynamism, HERE.

“Closer” is one of many highlights on the band’s debut album LISTEN! that’s due out June 9 on the RFK Media label. The 11-track album was produced by heavy hitter Mike Gillies, whose credits include a long tenure with Metallica as well as studio work with Mötley Crüe and The Cult. Lyrically poetic and musically illuminating, CRASHING WAYWARD paints a landscape that stretches beyond alternative hard rock and explores the diverse influences of each of its band members,

“There are four strong songwriters with all different types of influences, so this creates a unique sound,” says Blades. “From a guitar standpoint, David Harris plays a lot in open tunings which gives the riffs a very different vibe along with my mainly Drop D tuning. When you put the guitar parts together, they are very different. Added to that is Carl Raether’s powerful bass lines plus Shon McKee’s fantastic drumming—and with Pete’s distinctive vocals and melody lines, you get Crashing Wayward.”

The band came together in the Spring of 2020, just when the world seemed to come to a halt. In that stillness, the band grew restless, feverishly writing emotionally fueled songs of hope, inclusion, and escape. The music on LISTEN! represents a cathartic release raw in approach yet refined in tone.

Says Summit about the striking album cover, an image of a woman with her mouth shut and masking tape across it: “The album art was taken during the ‘Breathe’ photo session, although the concept of ‘No one will be silenced’ has been used in various high-profile projects such as the ‘NOH8’ silent campaign in 2008, which showed celebrities in protest of the ‘Proposition 8’ banning of same-sex marriage. The intention is to focus on the power in her eyes. ‘See us. Hear us!’ We felt that the title LISTEN! was powerful in portraying both the album’s cover and the lyrics throughout the album. LISTEN! speaks directly to life itself touching on topics of Intolerance, Mental Health, Suicide, Love, Peace, Loss and Political Unrest.”

CRASHING WAYWARD’s official introductory single “Breathe,” was released in December 2022 and achieved international recognition via Apple Music’s “Breaking Hard Rock” and “New in Rock” playlists, YouTube’s “Heavy Gauge” playlist, and a barrage of media interviews and radio play resulting in #1 status on radio stations in the U.S. and Canada.

CRASHING WAYWARD genuinely pour their soul, blood, sweat, tears, and hearts into their songs and live shows. Equally primordial and intellectual, their music embodies the fundamental hypnotic quality of rock music and makes them the band to watch in 2023 and beyond. The album will be available worldwide on CD and all digital/streaming platforms, with the vinyl edition to follow later this summer. Pre-order LISTEN! now at https://rfkmediashop.com/products/crashing-wayward-l-i-s-t-e-n.

The band recently performed a record release show for LISTEN! at the Viper Room in West Hollywood and will next be seen presenting a very special event merging music, art and more at The Industrial in Las Vegas on July 14 at which they will headline (more details TBA).

ABBY POSNER Today Releases Video For Uplifting Americana Song “World Is Yours” Ahead Of Pride Month

DATE: MAY 16, 2023

FROM: MARCEE RONDAN

ABBY POSNER
TODAY RELEASES THE VIDEO FOR UPLIFTING AMERICANA SONG
“WORLD IS YOURS”
IN HONOR OF ANNUAL PRIDE MONTH (JUNE)

DIGITAL PROCEEDS FROM THIS SONG ABOUT
FREEDOM, ACCEPTANCE AND RESILIENCE
THAT RAISES ITS FLAG TO THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY

“I know you wanna go down, down a different road
Where no one will reject you
For loving who you choose
You got wings to leave this town
And sing your song out loud”
—“World Is Yours,” 2023 (co-written by Mitch Schneider and Abby Posner)

ABBY POSNER, the genre-fluid Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, film composer, and producer, has today (May 16) shared the video for the uplifting Americana song “World Is Yours” ahead of its digital release this Friday, May 19 on Blackbird Record Label in honor of Pride Month 2023 (June). The animated lyric video reflects the song’s compelling themes of personal freedom, acceptance and resilience in support of the LGBTQ+ community. Watch the video, created by art director Jessamine Sison, HERE. Pre-save the song HERE.

“When I first heard ‘World Is Yours’ as a queer musician, I was immediately pulled in—it was such an honor working on this track,” says POSNER, who collaborated on the song with publicist and songwriter Mitchell Schneider. “Rearranging and producing it was truly transformative. It felt like I was a young queer kid all over again finding my way in the world and searching for acceptance. The truth is there couldn’t be a better time for this song, with all the anti-trans and homophobic rhetoric being preached by politicians. Queer youth need this song!”

“The digital proceeds from ‘World Is Yours’ are being donated to LGBTQ+ organizations,” says Manda Mosher, artist and co-owner of Blackbird Record Label. “I was incredibly honored when Mitch [Schneider] shared with me his idea of releasing ‘World Is Yours’ for Pride Month. When I heard Abby’s honest and beautiful vocal delivery, I knew the right song had met the right artist. Adding in Jessamine’s poignant visuals that beautifully support and detail a world changing for the better with each step of bravery and acceptance…this project became fully realized and is full of love. In ‘World Is Yours,’ love wins.”

Video creator Jessamine Sison says: “While working on the imagery for this video, I wanted to stay true to its Americana/country sound by depicting small towns and vast horizons. I also wanted to honor the important message in the lyrics to help spread that message to a wider audience. I felt the imagery had to be relevant, timely, and heartfelt. The last building façade in the first part of the video is the historic Stonewall Inn bar.”

Years before creating Americana records that shrink the distance between genres, ABBY POSNER grew up in a small mountain town outside of Denver. By 10 years old, she was making her own recordings on an 8-track cassette recorder, playing all the instruments—including piano, guitar, bass, and drums—herself. Meanwhile, her father introduced her to classic records by Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, and iconic blues artists. POSNER also became a devoted fan of punk music, moshing in the pit during gigs by bands like Alkaline Trio. Music wasn’t just a hobby; it was a lifeline. “Music has always helped me cope with the difficulties of life,” says POSNER, who’s spent the past two decades in Los Angeles. “I’m queer and I came out at a very young age. Music was the glue that held me together through all of that. It helped me process my feelings about being different.”

She shines a light on the full spread of her creative abilities with Second Chances, her upcoming album (August 2023, Blackbird Record Label) that uses modern American roots music as a springboard for a bigger, bolder sound. Influenced by everything from punk/rock to electronic music, Second Chances is every bit as diverse as the artist who made it. Coming on the heels of 2021’s critically acclaimed Kisbee Ring, Second Chances marks the newest chapter in a life story that’s still being written. Flip back a few pages and you’ll find a number of early-career milestones: the episodes of “Glee”that found Posner on prime-time television, playing guitar and banjo; the film scores she created for award-winning projects like the Starz documentary Lady Buds;the shows she shared with headliners like Sierra Hull, Dave Alvin, and iconic lesbian folksinger Phranc; the hundreds of songs she wrote, several of which were used by Hulu, Netflix, Freeform, and “This American Life.”

Los Angeles-based heavy metal powerhouse BUTCHER BABIES have dropped a new single, “Red Thunder,” which explores the band’s darker side by leaning into their thrash/djent roots with an explosive guitar solo. The single–release this past Friday, May 12, across digital platforms–can be streamed HERE. An accompanying music video for “Red Thunder” will be premiered via the band’s YouTube channel tomorrow, May 13, followed by a live Q&A chat with the band, RSVP HERE.

Along with the release of “Red Thunder” comes the announcement of BUTCHER BABIES’ double album EYE FOR AN EYE… and …‘TIL THE WORLD’S BLIND both due July 7 (“Red Thunder” will appear on …‘TIL THE WORLD’S BLIND). The double album celebrates the group’s ten-year anniversary of their critically acclaimed debut album GOLIATH, released on July 9, 2013 via Century Media Records. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for pre-orders and further details.

Discussing the new single’s sound, frontwoman Heidi Shepherd says: “‘Red Thunder’ is a massive nod to the style and sound of our beloved first album ‘Goliath’ that launched Butcher Babies into the metal stratosphere exactly a decade ago. Bringing in the groovy, guttural, thrash elements that we became known for, alongside a soaring melodic chorus, ‘Red Thunder’ culminates the dark, painful, and emotional side of the band. The song was written to remind the world that when she speaks, she speaks in Thunder!”

Frontwoman Carla Harvey lends insight into the inspiring and deeply personal meaning behind “Red Thunder”: “At its core ‘Red Thunder’ is a song about giving a voice to the voiceless. But not just any voice; a cry so powerful that it shakes those that have wronged them to their core. As Heidi and I were writing the lyrics, my personal inspiration became my sister, Julia, born with microcephaly. She died very young, and I did not get the chance to know her, but I have one haunting photo of her as a baby that I brought with me to the session as inspiration. In the photo she has one arm outstretched to the camera and these beautiful piercing eyes; my heart breaks that she didn’t get to live a LIFE; but in my dreams, my father’s daughter blooms…and speaks in thunder.”

Of the writing process for “Red Thunder,” guitarist Henry Flury says: “The opening riff was the first spark of inspiration when writing this song and it was also the first clip we introduced to the fans when giving a sneak peek of the album. The fans loved it, and we knew this song would be a highlight on the new album because it is classic BUTCHER BABIES. It has all the hallmarks of what a metal song should contain: Brutal vocals? Check. Crushing guitar riffs? Check. Pummeling double bass? Check. Guitar solo? CHECK.”

AS LAS VEGAS DIRECTOR

Description automatically generated with low confidence

Veteran publicist HILLARY SMOOT has joined the Schneider Rondan Organization (SRO PR) as Las Vegas Director and Senior Account Executive, it was announced today by the company’s partners, Mitch Schneider and Marcee Rondan.

HILLARY brings to SRO PR an array of clients in the entertainment and hospitality worlds such as Feld Entertainment, Inc. (including “Disney On Ice” and “Monster Jam”), Las Vegas-based restaurants and venues (Hash House A Go Go, Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux, Vic’s Las Vegas, Stoney’s Rockin’ Country, and the soon-to-open Stoney’s North Forty), plus the Pacific Beach, CA restaurant Backyard Kitchen & Tap.

In this new union with SRO PR, HILLARY builds substantially on the company’s presence in Las Vegas where company Founder/Partner Mitch Schneider moved three years ago from Los Angeles to open an office.

“Hillary and I met two years ago in Las Vegas through our mutual friend and associate, publicist Laura Herlovich,” says Schneider. “I was immediately struck by Hillary’s abundance of passion, skills, knowledge and super-tight relationships with the media.” Schneider adds, “We stayed in touch via lunches and meet-ups, which then evolved into a working relationship when we both came together to handle the Nice Hospitality Group in late 2022. Working closely with Hillary on that account really planted the seed for us to combine forces in a bigger way at SRO PR. I truly feel it’s limitless as to what we can achieve together.”

“I’m thrilled to join an iconic agency with such a stellar reputation,” Smoot said. “Mitch and Marcee have presented a significant opportunity for expansion, and I look forward to enhancing a mutually successful partnership in Las Vegas and beyond.”

With almost 30 years in the business, Hillary Smoot has built a successful career implementing proficient public relations, marketing, and branding strategies via high yielding campaigns, multiplying revenue streams, and delivering optimal media coverage. Hillary first cut her PR teeth with an internship at Elektra Records while studying for her degree in Communications at California State University Northridge. After years of managing music and entertainment PR and community relations for a wide variety of clientele in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, Hillary joined the Las Vegas Gladiators (Arena Football League) and later, the ECHL’s Las Vegas Wranglers. Smoot held public relations executive positions at the Tropicana Las Vegas and Luxor Las Vegas, and also served at several prestigious Las Vegas PR agencies, where she managed campaigns for such clients as HISTORY’s “Pawn Stars,” Feld Entertainment’s “Disney On Ice,” “Supercross,” “Marvel Universe LIVE!” “Monster Jam,” and more; several restaurants; production shows, celebrities, and headline entertainers such as Boyz II Men. Most recently in 2019, she was enlisted to create Red Moon PR, overseeing strategic public relations campaigns for LA’s Viper Room, El Dorado Cantina, and Red Mercury Entertainment’s shows including “Purple Reign” and “MJ Live,” among others.

SRO PR maintains offices in Los Angeles, Nashville, Las Vegas, and Phoenix, headed by Marcee Rondan, Lyndie Wenner, Mitch Schneider, and Kelly Walsh, respectively. With its iconic and cutting-edge artist roster–and its representation of internationally heralded music festivals, tours, events, and companies–the company has the eyes and ears of America’s diverse audiences. It has been hailed as a “bonafide taste maker” (L.A. Weekly, 2010) and by Music Connection (2019) as “one of the world’s premier public relations firms…[the] roster is eclectic and encompassing. It includes various styles and genres, superstars, musical legends, festivals, award shows and emerging artists. That diversity enables…[the company]…to obtain coverage in multiple outlets and mediums, from underground to mainstream.” The company began as MSO in 1995 and rebranded as SRO, reflecting Rondan’s promotion to partner, in 2019. It marked its 25^th year in 2020.

“Bury Your Casket” Single Art

Not only is AGAINST ALL ODDS the name of hard rock outfit THE MENDENHALL EXPERIMENT (TMX)’s recent 2022 EP, but it’s also the message behind the band itself. TMX was formed in 2008 by guitarist/songwriter Brandon Mendenhall who was born with the incurable neurological disease Cerebral Palsy which limits mobility on the left side of his body. Determined by his love of music, MENDENHALL learned how to play guitar which eventually aided in the rehabilitation of movement in his left hand without surgical intervention. Enlisting bassist Nathan Stockton—who also overcame his disability of childhood deafness—TMX was developed and eventually became the subject of the award-winning documentary MIND OVER MATTER (Sumerian Films) directed by French filmmaker Sébastien Paquet (Korn, Wounded Warriors). The band have since released music with guest artists including James “Munky” Shaffer (Korn) and Danny Lohner (NIN, A Perfect Circle) and performed in front of audiences across the country alongside John 5, P.O.D., Alien Ant Farm, Kill Devil Hill, Fear Factory, Prong, Flaw, Metal Allegiance, Smile Empty Soul, Flaw, Co-Op and Breaking In A Sequence (BIAS) in addition to festival appearances at Aftershock Festival and Rocklahoma.

TMX have today (5/12) shared their new single, “Bury Your Casket,” which is available digitally across all platforms HERE. The aggressive-yet-catchy track’s meaning is “Relationships are sometimes meant to die in order to move onto the next evolutionary chapter,” according to guitarist/songwriter MIKE LIRA. “Sometimes that can be one of the hardest things in life to accept.” MENDENHALL adds, “In life, death is the only absolute; everything else is subject to change. Everyone you befriend along the way is a lesson, good, bad or indifferent, and as you grow and progress your circle gets smaller.”

On writing “Bury Your Casket,” LIRA comments: “This song is definitely one of my favorites. It’s melodic, heavy and a bit technical. It was one of those songs that came together smoothly, but also challenged me at times.”

“‘Bury Your Casket’ has been a fan favorite in our live set for years and my personal favorite to perform, it’s thrashy with a splash of punk and a solid breakdown,” shares MENDENHALL. “It’s the perfect combination to get your blood pumping and the crowd moving with a hook that will get stuck in your head for the rest of the night.” Hear more about “Bury Your Casket” and the band’s journey in the Q&A with MENDENHALL below.

TMX have also shared a peek inside the recording process for AGAINST ALL ODDS in a new “making of” mini-documentary which can be streamed now below or directly via the band’s YouTube channel HERE. The documentary shows MENDENHALL, LIRA, STOCKTON along with drummer Justin Luebeck and new vocalist Alyce Hayes in the studio with a special appearance from Suicide Silence guitarist Chris Garza who guested on the EP’s debut single “Pulse Of The Lost.”

Witness TMX’s riveting live performance at Inkcarceration Festival in Mansfield, OH this summer where they’ll be performing on the Campground stage on Saturday, July 16. Stay tuned for additional touring announcements in the coming weeks.

Q&A with Brandon Mendenhall

What and/or who inspired you to pursue a career in the music industry?

“Growing up I was influenced by bands and guitarists from Korn, Pantera, and NIN. It was Munky from Korn’s story about how he used the guitar to rehabilitate his left index finger after an ATV accident almost tore it off that became the catalyst for me believing in myself and my abilities on guitar and in music.”

You were diagnosed with the incurable neurological disease cerebral palsy which affects physical movement. Can you describe some of the challenges you faced when learning to play guitar and how you overcame and/or continue to work around them?

“My journey with Cerebral Palsy and the guitar has not been an easy one. I don’t feel as though I’m one of those naturally talented players, I have had to earn my skill level.”

“My left hand is heavily affected by the CP, practically paralyzed in a way. I had to figure out a work around from playing chords the traditional way, and it wasn’t until I learned about Keith Richards using open and drop tunings as an alternative that things began to click for me on the instrument.”

“My progress on the guitar, like most musicians is ongoing, probably more physical than most. I feel as though I have to work twice as hard as your average player to stay in the game and keep the mobility I’ve gained over the years crisp. Also, I’m still learning as a player and a songwriter. I’ll never stop learning, that’s part of the fun and what keeps things creative. I wouldn’t be who I am today without having Cerebral Palsy; it’s this immense gift that’s given me an ability (with my guitar playing) to inspire and help others around the world, and for that I am blessed.”

Your new EP is titled ‘Against All Odds,’ can you share what that phrase means to you?

“‘Against All Odds’ really lived up to its name…From overcoming lineup changes, living through a global pandemic and persevering though ‘the sophomore slump,’ we delivered a killer yet more well-rounded EP than our debut.”

“To me, ‘Against All Odds’ means decoding the matrix–metaphorically finding yourself and what works for you in music, your formula or sound, and then going all in on your path to victory and success.”

Tell us more about your new single “Bury Your Casket” and where the song’s inspiration came from?

“All the credit goes to our lead guitarist Mike Lira on ‘Bury Your Casket.’ It’s truly his creation. He wanted to create a modern catchy but heavy tune that really got the crowd moving. Lyrically the song speaks to closing the chapter on a toxic period in your life, to be able to grow and move forward from life’s lesson.”

What are some of the influences that go into creating TMX’s sound?

“Life and the world around us is the biggest influence on our music currently. We draw from the experiences we go through personally and others we see or hear about and become inspired to pull some energy from.”

If you had to describe your music in five or less words, what would they be?

“Heavy Melodic Inspiration.”

What is a piece of advice you wish you were told that you would give to others that suffer from disabilities about pursuing a music career?

“The advice I would give to others with disabilities pursuing music is that you CAN do it! Never give up. It’s a journey, so enjoy it and have patience while being persistent. Also, don’t waste time by letting others stall your progress, keep your goals in motion. Lastly, manage your spending and invest your capital into your career in ways that it comes back to you.”

You’ve previously collaborated with James “Munky” Shaffer of Korn and Chris Garza of Suicide Silence. What other musicians would you like to collaborate with?

“Collaborations are one of my favorite things about what we do. There’s five on the top of my list to achieve right now:John 5, Dizzy Reed, Wolfgang Van Halen, Rick Allen and Tony Iommi–in no particular order and all for various reasons. Some we’ve talked about, some others are still dreams but anything is possible, and we’ll see what the universe has in store for us.”

If you weren’t a musician, what would you be doing instead?

“If I wasn’t a musician, I’d probably pursue a career in some sort of social work or counseling. I find that helping and giving back to others is the most rewarding thing in life.”

ASKING ALEXANDRIA today (Friday, May 12) share “Dark Void,” the first preview of music from their as-yet-untitled full-length studio album due this fall via Better Noise Music. Available now digitally HERE, “Dark Void” presents contrasting themes of melancholy and aspiration of day-to-day life in the modern world, while seamlessly blending the band’s anthemic stadium rock sound with a call back to their metalcore beginnings. Watch the music video for “Dark Void” streaming below or directly via YouTube HERE.

“With the world seemingly getting darker and darker, it’s easy to see why so many of us struggle with anxiety, depression, loneliness,” relays guitarist BEN BRUCE. “This song is about fighting those demons that live in your head and trying your hardest to be your own savior. Finding that inner strength to pull yourself out of the darkness.”

“This theme is explored throughout the entirety of our upcoming album. We all have our own struggles and hurdles. We are all on our own journeys that present unique challenges and difficulties, but we all have our own inner strength to fall back on. There is always light at the end of the tunnel. I feel that there can be comfort in knowing that we aren’t alone. We all feel a little down from time to time. We all feel a little lost from time to time, but somehow, in some way, we are all in this together and hopefully our new album can help people through some of their toughest times.”

ASKING ALEXANDRIA—BEN BRUCE (lead guitars), DANNY WORSNOP (vocals), CAMERON LIDDELL (rhythm guitars), SAM BETTLEY (bass) and JAMES CASSELLS (drums)—have relentlessly toured across the globe in addition to being showcased at several of rock’s top worldwide festivals including Download Festival (UK), Hellfest (FR), Graspop (BE), Aftershock (US) and many more. They will spend the summer touring across Europe before heading stateside in July for three festival appearances: Rock Fest (7/14, WI), Inkcarceration Festival (7/15, OH) and Louder Than Life (7/21, KY).

Having joined Better Noise Music in 2021 with the release of their critically acclaimed album See What’s On The Inside, ASKING ALEXANDRIA subsequently achieved their first-ever #1 Active Rock radio single “Alone Again” and a follow-up Top 10 single with “Never Gonna Learn” (#6) in 2022 from their EP of the same name. The band’s loyal fanbase have garnered over 1.4 billion combined streams to date across all platforms along with over 3.1 million monthly Spotify listeners. Their music videos have received over 700 million views.

ASKING ALEXANDRIA are currently offering a once-in-a-lifetime experience to shadow the band on tour for a day, including a guitar tech session with BRUCE where the winner will also get to take home the signed guitar, as part of Better Noise Music’s “Fan Love Sweepstakes” fundraiser supporting Sweet Relief Musicians Fund’s “Music’s Mental Health Fund.” The grand prize winner and a guest will receive airfare and a two-night hotel stay to attend the concert, plus they’ll receive a pair of VIP tickets to a future ASKING ALEXANDRIA show of their choice (subject to venue availability).

TASH SULTANA’S Latest Single, “New York,” Captures Their Electric Energy In A City That Never Sleeps

DATE: MAY 9, 2023

TASH SULTANA’S
LATEST SINGLE, “NEW YORK,”
CAPTURES THEIR ELECTRIC ENERGY
IN A CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS

SINGLE IS RELEASED IN ADVANCE OF TASH’S
MASSIVE 50-DATE TOUR
ACROSS EUROPE, THE UK, AND NORTH AMERICA

TASH SULTANA, the gender-fluid multi-instrumentalist, producer, singer-songwriter, engineer, and entrepreneur, is set to release their second single, “New York,” on May 10, from an as-yet untitled EP out later this year through their label Lonely Lands Records.

LISTEN TO NEW YORK HERE

Amid a global lockdown, the music industry struggled, with tours and festivals cancelled left and right. During this time, TASH found themselves again hidden in their studio. “New York” is a track written about a specific experience in the city itself.

“I will never forget a time last year when I was so f**ked up, TASH says. “It was before my Pier 17 show [2022], one of the lowest points of my life, professionally and personally, and I just wanted to know what it is or what I could do to make it stop. Do I run, do I scream, do I jump into the water, do I cry, what’s it going to take to get me through the night.”

It began as a little jam project on their hard drive, written in just an hour on a keyboard. What started as a simple experiment eventually evolved into a powerful and reflective piece of music written in crypticism with hidden stories camouflaged in happy sonics. It’s a common approach for TASH—their darkest songs usually sound the happiest.

“I have always found New York hard to find my place in,” TASH explains. “Everything is so fascinatingly fast that I think people are running from something. The city never sleeps, and its people don’t either. Among the chaos, how do you cope, drink it, smoke it or medicate it away? What do people do to get through the night.”

“New York” showcases a different approach to songwriting, focused heavily on beat production and sample flipping. The listener hears TASH taking a different musical approach than in previous material. TASH has remained tight lipped about the true meaning of the track, saying that “it’s not quite what you hear it as. I am telling a story, and it’s not a happy one either. ‘Cover me in sugar just to get me through the night’ is a reference to self-medicating yourself just to get by, which is something many people face as a coping mechanism in society.”

One key element that sets TASH SULTANA apart is their ability to effortlessly blend various musical genres, including pop, hip hop, funk, reggae, alternative, indie, rock, jazz and psychedelic folk. Their dynamic live shows, which feature TASH playing multiple instruments, including guitar, bass, drums, synth, keys, mandolin, trumpet, saxophone, flute and pan flutes/pipes, just to name a few, have seen crowds amass in thousands to watch what can only be fully experienced in person.

In June and October of 2023, TASH will embark on an extensive 50-date international touring schedule taking in the EU/UK and North America. Fans can expect to be blown away by the artist’s genre-defying sound and electrifying live performances.

TASH explains, “Every tour is a professional and personal cycle, and I feel that what is laying ahead of me is the best yet to come.” With this dedication and passion, it’s no wonder that TASH has become one of the most exciting Australian exports.

Full tour dates at https://www.tashsultana.com

TASH has recently been making waves in the music industry, winning the 2023 Rolling Stone Global Artist Award (Australia) and delivering captivating live performances as a headliner at four festivals: Cali Vibrations, alongside Snoop Dogg and Jack Johnson; last month’s Vintage Vibes; Lazy Mountain; and Bluesfest. TASH SULTANA‘s virtuosic guitar skills and mesmerising voice captivated the audience from start to finish. Tonedeaf described their genre-defying sound as a “masterclass in musical experimentation and innovation.” At the same time, The Music praised their proficiency as a multi-instrumentalist, using guitar, bass, drums, beats, drums, synth, keys, flute, pan flute, pan pipes, mandolin trumpet, and saxophone to create a tapestry of sound created by live looping” Tash’s energetic performances are a testament to their unique sound and position as one of Australia’s most exciting exports with a global reach.”

In addition to their live shows, TASH’S last single, “James Dean,” amassed over 2.3 million streams. The track’s accompanying video has had over 250,000 views on YouTube. Watch HERE

“New York” is available on all streaming platforms NOW
