Our Band of the Day is A New Way To Live Forever

June 23, 2015

  Today I wanted to introduce you to a new band that is truly delivering a positive message along with their driving indie rock music. They are A New Way To Live Forever which was formed by Russ Rogers of The Numb Ones fame. The band is ready to grab your attention with their new EP, Monument. Russ comments on how he started the band, “At the end of The Numb Ones the band dissolved and I started a band with my then wife called Kill Miss Pretty which was an electro-punk band down here in Florida and I wrote everything for that too but I had her for a singer.  We did one show and then on a whim we dressed up as Alice in Wonderland so then from then on every show was a different theme like “We’re all going to be penguins” and from there we started gathering a lot of momentum.  From there my buddy Scott who was the original guitar player from Marilyn Manson joined the band in its last year.  [Read More]
