Sparks/Reno, Nev. – Support the United Way of Northern Nevada and the
Sierras. And rock-out doing it! See alt-rockers Earshot on one very
special night, Saturday, November 8, in the Celebrity Showroom at John
Ascuaga’s Nugget.
Earshot has forged a career in the music business built on talent and
perseverance. Looking beyond the status quo of the modern rock music of
today, the band’s third studio album The Silver Lining marks the start
of what could be the beginning of a new and changing modern rock world
of tomorrow. No doubt, that in the 48 minutes of listening to the bevy
of infectiously memorable tracks, one can only describe this 11-song
collection as a very cleverly crafted, re-defined and re-designed
approach to their genre with a plethora of sonically raw and defining
moments.
Earshot signed with Warner Brother's Records in 2001 and in 2002
released their debut album Letting Go which yielded the anthemic
singles "Get Away" (which peaked at #4 on the charts and stayed in the
top 100 for over 60 weeks), and "Not Afraid". In 2004 the band released
their sophomore effort entitled Two which yielded the band’s breakout
single "Wait" (#9) and their follow-up single "Someone."
In early 2005, Earshot returned from the road supporting their second
release when the panicked state of the recording industry turned its
ugly head towards the band. "No one expected another Earshot record
after that," said Earshot vocalist Wil Martin. "We were essentially
counted out by many. Our departure from Warner Brothers Records only
added to our determination not to let corporate decisions determine our
artistic and creative voice. After all, that's what rock music is
really all about … believing in yourself, overcoming adversity and
taking that chance when the odds are against you."
In early 2007, EARSHOT signed with InDeGoot/Fontana/Universal
Recordings. Produced by Brian Garcia and co-produced by Wil Martin, the
band began the long and tedious task of putting together their nearly
two-year long gestations of song ideas. Tracks such as
"MisSunderstood", "Closer", "Pushing To Shove", "Wasted", "Don't Hate
Me" and "Sometimes" are sure to please the Earshot faithful, and will
undoubtedly serve to quickly convert new fans by songs with a penchant
for massive hooks and loud guitars.
Earshot plays one night, Nov. 8, in the Celebrity Showroom at John
Ascuaga's Nugget. The show starts at 8 p.m. and benefits the United Way
of Northern Nevada and the Sierras. Tickets are just $15 and $25. Sound
Check Party tickets are just $20, which includes appetizers and
beverages. All are available by calling (800) 648-1177 or (775)
356-3300 or by visiting janugget.com. Dinner and show packages are
available. “Do the Nugget Tonight!”
