"Local Spotlight"

In a move to spotlight local talent, KROQ began spinning a new song from unsigned L.A. locals Dead Country. The band’s song “Euro Thrash” has been getting 7 spins a day and getting phones, thus spurring a flurry of label calls to the band. We hear S.F. station Live 105 may start spinning the tune this week. Expect to see label and publisher folks making a trek to Orange County for the band’s residency at La Cave, which is famous for its steak & seafood…mmm yum! Meanwhile, we hear east coast A&R reps are planning flights to Tinseltown to meet the band. Nick Raskulinecz has been tapped to produce the album and the group will be supporting The Bronx on a North American tour later this month [Update: "Euro Thrash" received an official add on KROQ this morning] - RM64 "tastemaker" site

Bio

Dead Country is a 4 piece rock band from Silverlake, CA which showed up on the new music radar in the summer of '09 after recording a well received 5 song demo at Foo Fighters' 606 studio with Foo Engineer John Lousteau. Foo Fighter bassist Nate Mendel played on two of the demo tracks. Dead Country toured West Coast dates with Sunny Day Real Estate and the Jealous Sound In Sept '09 to packed houses, including San Francisco's infamous Filmore and LA's Fonda Theater. The unique opportunity to play with the legendary Sunny Day Real Estate was definitely one of the highlights of this band's career thus far. Side One Dummy Records owner Joe Sib has also featured the Dead Country songs on his synicated Complete Control Radio show which airs on LA's popular indie rock station 98.7 and others in cities such as Denver, CO Portland, OR Austin, TX and Phoenix, AZ. The band recently signed a 4 song EP deal with Storefront Records/RED distribution. They will be featured on AP magazine's December Bands to watch in 2010 compilation. Dead Country has secured the #2 spot on the compilation along with a two page editorial in the magazine supplement. The band is currently working on new songs in the studio with Saosin guitarist Beau Burchell producing. 2010 is looking to be a breakout year for this promising rock band.
