The New Me

Every time Sam Hindmarsh (vocals) is asked about his bands' sound, his best answer is always, "The music speaks for itself." He isn't lying. The New Me is forging a rock sound somewhere in between The Smashing Pumpkins, The Goo Goo Dolls, and contemporary post-hardcore. The resulting product is something new, but undeniably addictive.
The driving force behind The New Me has always been an overwhelming need to play passionate, but honest music. The farewell months of 2005 found long-term friends Andy Mosley (guitar), and Matt Hendricks (bass) deciding to form a group with the intention of writing well crafted songs that could appeal to everyone. They recruited Brandon Yow (guitar), and Josh Hoffman (drums) to help make this vision a reality. Within months, the group had written numerous songs, but lacked the final crucial ingredient: vocals. The group stumbled across Hindmarsh singing a solo performance and immediately asked him to join. Hindmarsh's vocals complemented the bands intensity, range, and focus perfectly.
April of 2006 found the band at Warrior Sound with Al "Coach" Jacobs and Mitch Marlow (Classic Case) heading up production. The group produced a five-song EP, This Is... which received instant attention and acclaim in the bands' home state of North Carolina. The band has been steadily playing shows, gaining new fans and attention. TNM is already gracing the airwaves of NC on numerous stations, both college and commercial alike. By incorporating influences from bands like Samiam, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Goo Goo Dolls, and Glassjaw, The New Me is pioneering a rock sound that is new, but isnt easily classifiable. And as any member of TNM will tell you, they wouldnt have it any other way.
