Crowd Surfing on NYE w/ 50,000 Of Our Closest Friends

Sleeperstar — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 00:01:43 +0000

Here’s a quick glimpse at what the weekend was like, then we can quickly talk new year’s resolutions. (If anyone has crowd surfing footage, will you post it to youtube & put the link on our facebook page? That’d be most baller of you!)

Let us quickly clear up some rumors that are hanging out there (totally our fault, it’s probably time to bite the bullet and hire a publicist, again…our fault)

RUMOR #1 – Yes. There is a record deal sitting in our inbox from a label, but we HAVE NOT SIGNED IT.

RUMOR #2 – We are planning the release of new music 1st quarter of 2012, HOWEVER these next songs are actually from the vault. They were recorded during the JAG sessions. (Most have never been heard). Originally we were just going to let them sit in the digital abyss but on a recent road trip we busted them out and soon after decided they should definitely be released from their captivity…

How about we do SS New Year’s Resolutions in another blog post later this week! (One of our resolutions is to BLOG, often!)

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Make it count.
-SS-

Sleeperstar Goes International

At the tail end of last year, the hit CW show The Vampire Diaries featured one of our songs “I Was Wrong” in a very epic scene between two of the main characters. Six months and 24,986 downloads later our music is starting to spread exponentially quicker than we had ever previously experienced! The appreciation for the show and its incredibly loyal fan base has been talked about many times over in our camp. Thank you all so much for pushing the song and the album, and for doing it in such an amazing way. Please keep it up! If you missed the scene and want to check it out, just go to youtube and search the words “sleeperstar vampire.” (We’ll be honest, the fact that you can search “our band name” + the word “vampire” kinda makes us happy)

Pre-Production On Sleeperstar’s New Album Has Begun!!!

What’s tentatively being called “The Light, The Sound, The Fire” is in its beginning phases. Yes we’re talking to labels (they started calling us because you all are pushing our music to your friends!) but REGARDLESS it is safe to say you can expect “tL tS tF” in your hands in 2012!!

Upcoming Tour Dates

We’re doing a handfull of shows in the US in April and May. For details on upcoming dates visit the “Tour” section of our website: http://www.sleeperstar.com/blog/tour

Big D NYE show!

Shaun — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 18:42:24 +0000

We had an amazing opportunity to play at the Big D NYE show in Dallas this year! We entered into a contest, which YOU, the fans, voted on and we WON!! This is the biggest New Years Eve party in Dallas, put on by WFAA Ch 8, American Airlines Center, and Winstar Casino. It was held in Victory Park, right outside American Airlines center, and 35 thousand people were at the show!! It was craaazzzy!! I couldn’t even see where the sea of people ended. On top of that, a portion of the performance was broadcast live to half a million people! For sure one of the craziest, most awesome experiences we’ve gotten to be a part of. I had my camera with me to take a few images, I wish I would’ve gotten more, but my head was really focused on performing and not photographing. Thanks to WFAA, Winstar Casino, and American Airlines Center for putting on such an amazing event. And thank YOU to everyone who voted to have us on this show, it was amazing and we are humbled that you would vote for us!

Our good buddy, Steven Samuals (GRO’s tour manager), was kind enough to help us out that night. So official:

Here are some acoustic performances of Texas Rain and Fallback live during on our Fearless Radio spot – 6/30/10 Chicago, IL.

Fearless Radio // Photos

Shaun — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 01:36:09 +0000

Fearless Radio is quickly becoming one of our favorite places to stop through when we’re in Chicago. The people there are so great and we always have a great time. Here are some photos from our June 30th appearance. You can listen to the interview HERE, and you should because we are reeeeeaaaalllyy funny. Make sure you go check out Fearless Radio’s site and tune into their shows. They rule. Aaaannndd they are located in an old historic building that is in the processes of being renovated. It’s way cool with a old freight elevator, factory style doors, and a finished out rooftop with a breathtaking view of downtown Chicago. Very cool.

Ps. We performed 2 songs on air and I took some video of it. Look for that in an upcoming post.
