THE FOURTH FLOOR Promo Video!
Hey everybody! We're a band out of small-town Iowa.. We're just stoked that people are listening to what we have to offer. The CD has a full-band sound, but until we find a drummer and a bassist, we play all-acoustic live.. ALSO! The new album is done! You can buy it our site, or via mail. Hope to hear from all of you!
Be sure to check out our blogs that include lyrics, meanings behind songs, and any other recent news that anyone should know about. We wanna thank you all in advance for just taking the time to check out our site and possibly even listen to our songs. We're really excited in the direction we're going.
Keep them comments/messages coming, too!
WHAT DOES YOUR BAND NAME MEAN?
--Jay, "Well there's a couple answers to this. We tell people that we got it from the movie "The Boondock Saints", but it's because we don't have a better explanation. We just decided on 4th-Floor a long time ago, and then evolved into "the.fourth.floor"."
--Levi, "I wish we had a cool story 'bout how we got the name, so if you guys have any suggestions, let us know. Maybe we'll use yours."
DO YOU HAVE ANY CD'S FOR SALE?
--Jay, "Yeah. We just released "Rushing It With Patience" in December of '06 and we're already working on the follow-up."
--Levi, "You can order them through mail or buy them on the site here. And you can pick them up at our shows, which is the better way, 'cuz we want to meet all of you."
HOW'D YOU GET A FULL-BAND SOUND IF IT'S JUST THE THREE OF YOU?
--Jay, "We record a LOT!"
--Chris, "If there's a song that we're going to make more of a 'rock' song, then Jay goes in and lays down on the drums in a computer program and then we track everything over-top. It takes a lot of tracks sometimes, but if it will add to the song, we'll put it in there."
HOW MANY SONGS DO YOU WRITE?
--Jay, "I have about 50-60 songs written already for the CD we're working on, and narrowing them down will be hard. I hate that part."
--Chris, "Yeah, we were going to release a 2-disc album with 'Rushing It With Patience', but when we finished a full CDs worth of music we just decided to release it. But when you have this many songs for ONE CD, cutting some out will be really fuckin' hard."
