The Lasting (podcast up soon)


"Throughout music history, between genres, and even the hybrids of genres there’s one class in particular that has a special place in everyone as well as standing the test of time: Rock and Roll. The Lasting wants to continue in that legacy. In a volatile music industry, with music being led by niche groups, the 4 guys in this band are filling a need in music by bringing back an era of deeply textured guitars, even deeper lyrics as well as soaring guitar solos and melodies that come from a level of musicianship that is rarely found in young bands today. The Lasting has not only tapped into creative and timeless music, but they have also received the full attention of Nashville. In 2006, the band was promptly signed to an Artist Development Deal with EMI CMG. They have truly hit the ground running since February of 2007, having already played 70+ shows across the eastern US. Currently, the band is plotting global domination."

Three unemployed dudes and a Starbucks barista make up what is, "The Lasting". ;-) Just kidding. I'm sure they're not unemployed...
Okay, I'm not that mean. Really.
The four-piece from Nashville, TN have a great rock/pop sound that targets a younger demographic; but yet they're still able to hook listeners from outside of that younger scene!

And they're sending me autographed underwear. Score.

Check out their website (www.myspace.com/thelastingrocks) and also listen to the podcast of the interview you might've missed. ;-) Link will be at the top of the post tomorrow!
