Pop Evil signed to Universal Records. Re-release Lipstick On A Mirror
 
Fabled Michigan rockers Pop Evil have signed with Universal Republic Records and recently re-released their 2008 acclaimed indie album Lipstick On A Mirror. The album is re-mixed and re-mastered, with a brand new song, “Rolling Stone.” The band has also included a riveting acoustic rendition of their signature song “100 In A 55,” which is already gaining traction online and via radio’s underground radar, before the official radio release.

In support of the re-release, Pop Evil is sweeping the nation on a two month long tour supporting Judas Priest and Whitesnake beginning July 5th in Wallingford, CT.

Led by larger-than-life frontman Leigh Kakaty, the band is already the stuff of legend in their native Michigan and throughout the Midwest for their pull-no-punches brand of searing rock. Billed as post-grunge and pre-revival of authentic-to-the core alternative hard rock, the fierce fivesome has earned their stripes as a must-see live act. They've been criss-crossing the U.S. for years, rallying fans at dyed-in-the- wool rock vestiges such as the Intersection in their home turf of Grand Rapids, MI, and the Rumble Rally in Mason, Ohio.

Pop Evil has sustained a formidable grassroots following thanks to their constant touring and well-timed releases refining their trademark sound. Lipstick On A Mirror also features Pop Evil signature songs such as "Another Romeo & Juliet," “Hero,” “Stepping Stone,” And “Somebody Like You,” among others.
