FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
POWER POP ROCKERS NAMESAKE PREMIERE NEW VIDEO ON ROCK CONFIDENTIAL
Are they pop or are they rock? It’s a tough question to answer when it comes to Namesake, who sound equally committed to both styles, as evidenced by their single, “Worlds Away” (which is for sale on iTunes – itunes.apple.com/us/album/worlds-away-single/id448358150). And on Thursday, November 17th, a video for the song will be premiered on Rock Confidential (http://rockconfidential.com/Videos/2011/11/namesake-worlds-away/)
Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Namesake is comprised of Will Crafton – vocals, Brad Wagner – guitar, Troy Harmon – guitar and Kevin Nordeste – drums. And the story behind the group’s name is a simple one – all of the group’s members bear their father’s name, hence, “Namesake”.
Signed to Imagen Records, the band recently recorded their debut full-length album “Borders & Fences” in Orlando, FL with famed record producer James Paul Wisner, who’s best known for his work with Paramore, Underoath, and New Found Glory. The release is scheduled for early 2012. But to preview what lays in store from the band, the single “Worlds Away” is a fine starting point (which has already earned rave reviews by users on iTunes, including a fan who gushed “This song is freakin’ amazing BUY IT NOW”), as well as its Scott Hanson-directed video clip.
“It was an incredible experience,” said Troy about the filming of the video. “I really had no idea what to expect, but it was so much fun. I can’t wait to shoot the next one!” And Brad shares Troy’s enthusiasm for the clip. “Working with Scott Hanson was incredible. I feel he helped us reach a whole new plateau as a band.”
