Shelter From the Storm Records signs
Battle of the Bands finalist In Theory

Group to spend rest of the year in the studio between gigs


VAN NUYS, Calif. – September 27, 2006 – Los Angeles-based Alternative powerhouse band In Theory has signed a production, distribution and publishing deal with Shelter From the Storm Records and is in the studio working on their debut album. Signing with Shelter automatically terminates their affiliation with the BoDog battle of the bands competition of which they have ascended from a group of approximately 10,000 to a short list of less than 50 finalists. They were one of two winners in the Los Angeles competition held at the Roxy on the Sunset Strip on August 20th.

“We are really excited about this signing! Shelter has signed three L.A. bands since inception and In Theory fits our philosophy to seek out rock-orientated artists that possess both a unique, and yet familiar sound,” CEO Vincent Bitetti said. “If you understand the impact that Green Day, Blink 182, My Chemical Romance, Incubus, Alien Ant Farm, Hoobastank and The All-American Rejects have had on rock music, you begin to get an idea of the artistic and commercial potential of this group.”

“In a business as competitive as the music industry, a band needs a dedicated support team to take them all the way”, said Theo Gersht of In Theory. “We believe Shelter’s integrity and independent vision will be instrumental in creating success for the band.”


In addition to recording, a nationwide Alternative radio campaign begins in October. The band will hit the road in November for a six week club tour that takes them from California to Chicago. Producer chores are being handled by Shelter co-founders Barry Fasman and Vincent Bitetti. Fasman has been honored in the past as Producer of the Year in Great Brittan and produced six albums for the hit TV show “Fame” – selling over 4 million units worldwide. He has been affiliated (via producing, writing, arranging, engineering and/or conducting) with such diverse artists as The Cult, Styx, Air Supply, Melissa Manchester, Dionne Warwick and others. Fasman (known simply as ‘Foz’ in the music business), who has eight gold and/or platinum albums among his credits, was impressed when business partner Bitetti talked him into going to a Grammy after party where In Theory was performing. A few gigs later and some one-on-one with the band members and they were convinced they should add them to their new label.


About In Theory

…Through a jungle of cement and asphalt, divided by hills, the story of our four young heroes begins... They are on a mission. Not to conquer, not to change, only to learn from the gods of rock and blend the different creeds together to form a new and all powerful sound…

After seven years of playing and composing classical piano, Theo Gersht had an urge to pick up the guitar... Things began to happen fast and soon. It was Theo, Aaron, Sam and Avromie— a band with catchy tunes and unreal live shows. Hard hitting drums, pounding bass, thick guitars with lead and backup vocals coupled with an on-stage energy that can pump up a crowd of people in a graveyard, In Theory has arrived. A Hollywood mainstay, the band has played The House of Blues, The Whisky a Go Go, The Roxy, The Key Club, The Knitting Factory Hollywood, B.B. King Blues Club & Grill and Jillian’s at Universal City Walk, The El Rey Theater, Chain Reaction, Studio S, The Cobalt Café and Six Flags Magic Mountain. In Theory is in Shelter’s L.A. studio recording this summer, and working with the label to spread their huge online fan base into a nationwide following.

Through a jungle of cement and asphalt, divided by hills, the story of our four
young heroes begins. They were out on a mission. Not to conquer, not to change,
only to learn from the gods of rock and blend the different creeds together to form
a new and all powerful sound.
After seven years of playing and composing classical piano, Theo Gersht had
an urge to pick up the guitar... Things began to happen fast and soon
it was Theo, Aaron, Sam and Avromie—a band with catchy tunes and unreal live shows,
they had set the stage for the amazing future that lies ahead. Hard hitting drums,
pounding bass, thick guitars with lead and backup vocals coupled with acrobatics
and an energy on stage that can pump up a crowd of people in a graveyard.
A Hollywood mainstay, the band has played The House of Blues, The Whisky a Go Go,
The Roxy, The Key Club, The Knitting Factory Hollywood, B.B. King Blues Club.& Grill
and Jillian’s at Universal City Walk, The El Rey Theater, Chain Reaction, Studio S,
The Cobalt Café and Six Flags Magic Mountain.
In Theory will be in the studio recording this summer, and working with Shelter
to spread their substantial online fan base into a nationwide following.
