Blacklist Union VA Street Team

Blacklist Union is a Hard Rock/Metal/Punk band from Hollywood, California. Blacklist Union was formed in early 2004 by Frontman Tony West. Searching Hollywood for the most talented and veteran musicians he could find, West added Carmine D'Amico on Guitar, JR on Bass Guitar, and Sean Davidson on Drums, along with his own unique vocal stylings. The result was one of the fastest rising bands in the Los Angeles area. Playing to sold out shows nearly every night, Blacklist Union quickly gained a reputation as the premier band in Los Angeles as well as within their musical genre.
After storming the Los Angeles music scene for nearly a year, Blacklist Union entered the studio to record their debut offering "After The Mourning".in early 2006. Produced by Chris Johnson ( Josh Todd, Evanescence, Goldfinger) the 10 song debut disc garnered immediate attention throughout the music industry, including airplay on over 60 radio stations across the United States, Canada, Europe and Japan, including several internet formats as well. A video single for the song "Please Kill Me" co-produced by Jamie Mitchell and Mark Racco (Guns and Roses, Stone Temple Pilots, Panic, Channel) was also offered to rave reviews, both Nationally and Internationally.
