Almost Dawn News

Hey Sunshine(s)!

We’ve been gone for a while, quite busy actually, but I wanted to update you on the band (obvi) and other events, as you can tell from the title. I attended the Warped tour this summer in Irvine and I loved the line up! I went to the San Diego location last year just to see Paramore, but there were a lot of screamo bands (which I’m not a big fan of or my band would be a screamo band… just sayin). Anyway, I went to Warped Tour and due to traffic I ended up missing Mayday Parade and All Time Low 🙁 big bummer I know…. but I did get to see these guys:

One of the biggest crowds (besides New Found Glory and Taking Back Sunday)! People lovin’ We the Kings!

Hadn’t heard them till Warped Tour but lemme tell you those Brits are amazing!!!

Hey all!

I’m sure everyone is as excited as I am to have a 3 day weekend!! But let’s not forget what the real purpose of this weekend is.  Take a moment to honor the troops/veterans who fought for our lives and the good of the nation! It takes a brave soldier to go into battle to protect the lives of millions of people back home.  Their sacrifices will not be forgetten <3

On a lighter note, our band is in full swing with Chino as our Almost Dawn drummer! Don’t forget about our concert for MADD on the second of June! There will also be roller derby to enjoy and I heard that two of the girls from the Roller Derby movie are going to be making an appearance! (they’re professional rolly derby girls!!) So come out and enjoy some tunes while watching some awesome competition on the rink!  Our band is preparing a new cover too so don’t miss out!!

If  you haven’t noticed, I’ve been highlighting bands I like, some well known, some not.  I am going to continue doing that unless you guys object? Lemme know what you think? Sooo… without further ado..

Highlight band of the weekend: The Lost Colors

Featured Band

I’ve been listening to an up and coming duo called Megan and Liz. 

They are fraternal twins and have amazing voices and harmonize well together!  Two of my favorite covers are of the songs “Stereo Hearts” by Gym Class Heroes and “Skyscraper” by Demi Lovato.  All of their covers and originals are free to listen to on youtube.  They just recently came out with a new EP titled This Time that contains 6 of their previously released singles.  They also have a beauty station on youtube to help girls become more confident everywhere.  They’re into poppy feel good songs and bank a lot on the catchiness of their songs.  You can tell the resemblance between their tunes and their idol Taylor Swift.
