AUTHORITY ZERO & VERSUS THE WORLD to Support The Ataris-‘So Long, Astoria’ Reunion Tour!

[fblike]4-band-support
For the first time in a decade, the classic lineup of The Ataris will reconvene to perform their million-selling album, So Long, Astoria, in its entirety from start to finish.   For one tour only, Kristopher Roe, Mike Davenport, Chris Knapp and John Collura will share the stage to celebrate their beloved album, performing fan-favorite hits like “So Long, Astoria,” “The Saddest Song” and their iconic version of Don Henley’s “Boys of Summer.”  Support will include: Authority Zero, Drag The River, Versus The World and Gasoline Heart.  Tickets for the upcoming tour will go on sale to the public on December 20th.
 
In conjunction with today’s tour announcement, The Ataris has released part one of a new mini-documentary about the band’s reunion and the making of So Long, Astoria.  Watch it now, exclusively at Billboard.com.  http://bit.ly/1dkWcOE.
Formed in 1996, The Ataris went on to sell hundreds of thousands of albums on small independent label Kung Fu Records before signing to Columbia Records in 2001.  In 2003, the band released their career-defining album, So Long, Astoria, which sold over a million copies and spawned the hits, “In this Diary,” “The Saddest Song” and “Boys of Summer.”
 
After headlining multiple Warped Tours and selling out major tours of their own, the classic line-up of The Ataris disbanded in 2004, leaving behind a legacy of influence and rock-radio anthems that still live on today.
 
A decade later, that lineup will reunite for one tour to celebrate So Long, Astoria, an album that helped redefine punk rock in the early 2000’s with vivid confessionals and melodic heartfelt sing-alongs.
 
“I’m looking forward to going out and bringing these songs to a crowd and really giving it our all, and hopefully bringing some of these fun memories back to our fans,” singer/guitarist Kristopher Roe says.  “I really feel like the most important thing is to be reconnected with three of my old best friends.  I’m excited to go out and make music with them again.”
 
“It’s a lot of nostalgia to come back and do this tour,” guitarist John Collura adds.  “It’s a celebration of what the four of us accomplished as a band.”
 
“This tour, for me, means more of redemption,” concludes bassist Mike Davenport.  “Us four reunited again, performing what I think is one of our best albums.”
 
“I haven’t seen these guys in forever,” drummer Chris Knapp says.  “It’s going to be crazy.”

Christian Martucci of THOUSAND WATT STARE joins STONE SOUR!

Martucci

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hardline Entertainment recording artist Christian Martucci of Thousand Watt Stare will be joining the platinum selling rock band Stone Sour, featuring Corey Taylor of Slipknot, on the band’s upcoming winter tour! Christian will be filling in for Stone Sour and Slipknot’s long time guitarist Jim Root, who is currently working on the new Slipknot record.  He will also be rejoining his former bandmate Roy Mayorga from the former Hardline punk supergroup Black President.

Thousand Watt Stare also features Pat Kim and Dylan Howard formally of Unwritten Law. From his early punk days with Dee Dee Ramone to current performances with Corey Taylor of Slipknot, guitarist Christian Martucci is no stranger to diversity.  In 2010 he recruited bassist Pat Kim, drummer Dylan Howard of Unwritten Law and THOUSAND WATT STARE was born.  The trio released their debut EP, recorded in just one day, to enthusiastic reviews.  Amp Magazine hailed them as “the saviors that rock music has been looking for,” while publications such as Roar Music Press called them “pure rock n’ roll genius.”  The band spent the rest of the year touring the west coast and began selling out venues as far as San Diego.  They added 2nd guitarist Trevor Howard and returned to the studio in 2011 to begin work on their debut full-length album “Silver Dimes.”  The album takes a shift from the straight ahead punk-influenced rock n’ roll heard on their early EP to much heavier, darker territory.  “I’ve been in a few bands over the years that were expected to sound a certain way and it just never made me happy,” says Martucci.  “It’s all about feel…  That’s the thing that makes this band special to us.  There are no rules!

Thousand Watt Stare’s Silver Dimes is available now from Hardline Entertainment.
