SPITSHINE

B I O
SPITSHINE first surfaced from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania with their self-titled debut CD in 2001, introducing listeners to a fresh, melody-based, modern-rock sound anchored somewhere between INXS and the Goo Goo Dolls. The 7 song effort put the group on the map in Southeastern Pennsylvania, earning them several awards and appearances on regional compilation CD's.
SPITSHINE's 12 song 2004 release "TRANSAUDIO" was a huge success for the band. With several thousand copies sold in it's first few months it gained them respect among area music critics and a "Best CD" nomination at the Lehigh Valley Music Awards. The CD also took 2nd place in a Regional contest held by the National Grammy Association.
Here's what Jim Price from WBXQ FM in Altoona, PA had to say about "TRANSAUDIO".
"The music is a soundtrack to their soul, providing driving guitar anthems, sing along choruses and heartfelt ballads. The live show delivers a diverse rock style with a PUNCH few can match. Fans of Pop, Punk and Rock will find plenty to cheer about throughout the album, with nearly every song possessing a crisp, catchy melody."
2005-2008
After being named "The Stars Of Bethlehem" and winning over $5,000 in cash & prizes, SPITSHINE have once again raised their own bar of success. They reciently teamed up with world renowned Grammy nominated, Atlantic Records producer David Ivory (Silvertide, Halestorm, The Roots, Molly Hatchet, Erykah Badu, Patti Labelle). Under Mr. Ivory's guidance, SPITSHINE is focusing on writing, producing and recording several tracks for the bands upcoming 2008 CD. The first single released is a brand new song called "I Don't Want You". It's already a fan favorite and the song that sealed the deal with Ivory. Look for several NEW tracks to be released in the coming months.
