MAY 20th
Winner of the mtvU's inaugural "Best Music On Campus" contest, SAY NO MORE will release What You Thought You Knew on May 20th.
What You Thought You Knew is a chronicle of four young men leaving the comforts of home to follow their dreams in the big city. The band spent an entire year writing before laying down any tracks. The result is a showcase of SAY NO MORE'S knack for rich harmonies, layered guitar parts, backbreaking rockers and sweet ballads. Musical tastemaker site, Absolute Punk says SAY NO MORE "exudes natural charisma" and "with their smart vocal delivery and strong musicianship, this band should be breaking out at any minute."
Hailing from Salinas CA, SAY NO MORE (Peter Pedrazzi, Peter Holbert, Jon Rasmussen, Tim Spier) formed in high school and honed their chops in their parents' garages until graduation. Then all four members moved to Los Angeles to attend school and push SAY NO MORE into the limelight.
In true DIY spirit the band created four videos and posted them on You Tube. So far they've garnered more than 65,000 plays! Those videos can be viewed at YouTube - drivethrurecords's Channel. SAY NO MORE will release an "official" music video for the song, "Long Drive Home" in June. The band has been featured on Buzznet.com, Myspace, Pure Volume, and Mozes.com.
Additionally, the men of SAY NO MORE are sentimentalists. Rather than dump Gumby, their 33 year old green Dodge Tioga, they held a fundraiser show at Salinas Valley Community Church on Friday April 11th to raise much needed monies for Gumby's repairs.
SAY NO MORE are a part of "The Small Fries Tour" featuring Socratic and You, Me & Everyone We Know presented by AbsolutePunk.net. Go to www.absolutepunk.net for ticket and album giveaways. SAY NO MORE recently performed at Bamboozle Left and have dates on the Warped Tour this summer.
