The ability to evolve and push boundaries has never been more important than it is now. While the mainstream becomes
safer,the dynamic,genre-bending acts are driven underground, to be discovered by a whole new generation of music fans
notcontent with the identikit bandspushed at them through the major media. It is this hallowed place that A DAY TO
REMEMBERhas not-so-subtly been taking over, from stereosto mosh pits across the world. While the music industry
scrambles to discoverthe next big thing, A DAY TO REMEMBER has been becoming it,showing that with the right amount of
hard work, strong songs,an unfaltering self-belief, and that indefinable spark of something reallyspecial, anything is possible.
Rising from the punk rock hotbed of Florida in 2003, Josh Woodard (bass), Alex Shellnutt (drums), Neil Westfall
(guitar),Jeremy McKinnon(vocals) and Tom Denney (guitar) formed A DAY TO REMEMBER, crafting a blend of the music they
loved intoa niche of their own. Theirsound combined the punk-pop of BLINK-182 and NEW FOUND GLORY with brutal
hardcore beatdowns, sending shudders through theunderground. Their debut on Indianola records sold 8,000 copies with little
promotion,and attracted the attention of Victory Records, whosigned them in 2006. “When we first got signed, our goal
wasn't to blow upor even sell a ton of records,” recalls bassist Josh Woodard. “Allwe wanted to do was stay on tour, and play
to as many kids aspossible.” The result exceeded even their expectations, as the infectious,explosive energy of their live
shows helped themorganically grow a fan base that multiplied each time they played.
With the release of their breakthrough album For Those Who Have Heart, A DAY TO REMEMBER went global. In the
twoshort years afterits release in early 2007, the band grew from a small band with a dedicated local fan-base into a
worldwidephenomenon, gaining the respectand adoration from their peers as much as their fans. This is no overnight success
– the bandhas worked hard to win over every fan theymake. But the "perfect storm" of their dedication, rapidly-spreading
buzz andundeniable musical abilities have made this young band one ofthe most talked about bands in rock, gaining
themselves acoveted slot in Alternative Press’ Most Anticipated Albums 2009 issue.
Selling out tours worldwide, their lyrics “Mark my words: we’re taking over the world” became a self-fulfilling prophecy, as
theband hit theroad with bands they grew up listening to like New Found Glory and Silverstein, and had a full summer on the
VansWarped Tour. Embracedby the media, A DAY TO REMEMBER made it on to “Ones To Watch” lists internationally, picking
up aKerrang! Award nomination for BestInternational Newcomer; the video for their rocked-up cover of Kelly Clarkson’s
“SinceU Been Gone” unshakable from music television oversummer 2008. Their new album Homesick sees them using
theirascension as a springboard, ready to launch them into the big time.“Homesick is a culmination of 2-1/2 years of
beinggone on the road. It represents what we've been through, what's ahead of us, andthe lessons we've learned in between.
It'sthe heaviest and catchiest record we've ever written, and we couldn't be more excited for peopleto hear it. We're all so
proudof what we just made, and think it really sets us up to jump to that next level,” notes Woodard.
In an industry where you have to evolve to stay ahead, A DAY TO REMEMBER is standing defiant, leading the genre-
straddlingpack in a battlecry, ready for the fight of their lives. Grab your friends, “disrespect your surroundings”, and watch A
DAY TOREMEMBER set the world alight.The mainstream won’t know what hit it. « hide |
