About Me

The Translation is a rock band from Chicago, Illinois. Since forming in February of 2005, The Translation has played to growing audiences all across the country. In their short existence, The Translation has played with some of the country's best talent such as Cartel, Plain White T's, Limbeck, The Hush Sound, Taylor Hawkins and the Coattail Riders, The Fold, Treaty of Paris and This is Me Smiling. In April of 2006, The Translation released their debut EP, Tomorrow, The Beginning, The Goodbye, to strong reviews and initial sales. The EP, produced by Dan Dusynzski (Hawthorne Heights, June, The Hush Sound), is the perfect introduction and precursor to what can be expected from this talented group. The Translation will be touring in support of the EP throughout 2006.
