Diamond Lane have been busy in the studio working on new music that will surely melt our faces off. Their latest album, Terrorizer is a must have and probably one of my most played CDs. They performed at Rocklahoma earlier this year with Delta Rose and had a successful Swinging Heavy Tour together. Vocalist Brandon Baumann comments on the upcoming show,

“The best part about being in a band is being able to travel and play our music in a variety of places across the country — it’s something we truly cherish, as connecting with the audience and meeting the real rockers of the world is what fuels our fire. We’ve had an incredible year and the new album is coming together smashingly in the studio, so we’re stoked to take a little break in August and terrorize the West Coast with our brothers in Delta Rose. It’s a non-stop rock n roll party and complete madness with those guys, so needless to say, we’re going to be swinging heavy once again and ready for some action — West Coast, LET’S ROCK! \m/”

I can still remember the first time I heard Delta Rose, I was absolutely blown away by their infectious bluesy rock sound and couldn’t believe how talented this young band was. Then when I saw them live, I was once again floored by their high energy stage non stop rockin set. I was forever hooked. We can’t wait for everyone to check them out. Funny story, I don’t know how many times when we are in traffic and blasting their album, Golden, people in cars have asked us who they were. I love it when people get excited about new music like we do! Vocalist Spencer Krasch comments,

“We are totally stoked to rock Petaluma, if we were any more pumped, you’d think we were on money mayweathers training supplement!!! \m/”

Faith and Bullets recently performed at the Whisky a GoGo for the Battle Of the Bands for Cathouse Live. They delivered a fierce set that had the crowd cheering them on. They are set to release their new EP, The Rebellion later this year. We first came across Faith and Bullets as we featured them on our Thirsty Thursday which highlighted young hard working bands that are thirsty for ROCK! These guys truly live and breath rock and roll as they not only kick ass with their music but are all about supporting the rock scene and keeping it alive. Vocalist, Stevie Mayhem comments,

“Playing the pheonix is pretty cool. Its another venue that has a lot of history. So to play there is an honor. What tom has done with that place all these years awesome. He opens the doors there for people from Petaluma to hang out and gives the kids a rad place to be. To be a part of all that and be playing with what I believe to be future of rock n roll, well there couldn’t be a better opportunity for Faith and Bullets”

You might be familiar with members of Sweet Addiction from their Road Crew days. One thing is certain Sweet Addiction is dedicated to ROCK n ROLL! These guys have such a depth of passion in their playing and put on a great show. They will soon be heading into the studio so get ready for new music that will become your Sweet Addiction! Vocalist Nikki Scott adds,

“Sweet Addiction is ready to rock on August 18th when we share the bill with Diamond Lane, Delta Rose, and Faith & Bullets – It’s been far too long since the Bay has seen a “REAL” Rock show of this caliber and we are ready and excited to blow the roof off the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma – sorry Tom – Thank you to our friends at Music Junkie Press for putting together one hell of a line-up and stay tuned for new releases as we will be heading into the studio to record a week from now! SEE YOU ON THE 18TH BAY AREA!!!! – S.A.”
