About Me

Press Release is the musical project created by myself back in June of 2003. My first EP Simple Songs For Simple Times is now available as of November 1, 2005. To get an EP send me a message and we will make it happen. I am currently recording a full length record that will be titled, specifics on the general idea. Hopefully this will be out in the spring if not sooner; snowboarding seems to keep me very busy at the moment. Anyways the songs you hear on here are demos. Look out for the real ones shortly. EP Track Listing Simple Songs For Simple Times1. the hole formerly known as your heart 2. bout with a small town girl 3. forever 4. october 5. a self-choking auto response 6. simple songs for simple times..........................................I also love metal.
