Los Angeles, CA - October 1, 2012 - Dead Sara has released a new tour video featuring personal fan submitted photos alongside live footage of the band for the song "We Are What You Say" (Fan Edition), from their self-titled debut album. The video, directed
by Jared Sagal of Rockerazzi Films, also includes never-before-seen
live concert and behind-the-scenes footage of the band, all taken from
recent tours with Chevelle, The Used, The Vans Warped Tour, and the Sunset Strip Music Festival. The video is now premiering exclusively online at Alternative Press: http://www.altpress.com/aptv/video/video_premiere_dead_sara_we_are_what_we_say.
Dead Sara is currently on the road with The Offspring and Neon Trees in
the U.S., before heading overseas to Europe this fall for a U.K. tour
with Twin Atlantic and the Vans Warped Tour show in London. Additional
tour dates will be announced.
Revolver
says "the buzz around LA-based hard-rock outfit Dead Sara is reaching
fever pitch" and indeed it is. The group has been earning accolades from
radio and critics alike, while winning over fans coast-to-coast. Rolling Stone recalled the band "blending blues, hard rock and punk into a whirling energy," with The Village Voice
going on to illustrate them as a "sort of twisted-blues hard rock that
feels like the product of people really enjoying playing the shit out of
their instruments," adding "If there's any justice, especially in this
year when the word 'rock' signifies a genre that is in flux enough so as
to be anyone's game, Dead Sara will stake their claim as a new kind of
standard-bearer."
Dead
Sara's 11-track self-titled debut, produced by Noah Shain (Atreyu, As
Tall As Lions, Sonny Moore/Skrillex), is driven by the dynamic duo of
two talented young women, singer Emily Armstrong and guitarist Siouxsie
Medley. The band is rounded out by bassist Chris Null and drummer Sean
Friday, creating an electrifying four-piece rock band whose supercharged
music is propelled by Medley's exhilarating, monster guitar riffs and
Armstrong's powerful, wailing vocals. Praised for their blazing
impassioned rock and catchy guitar melodies, Dead Sara embody everything
you want from a young, hungry, unpredictable and enigmatic rock band.
