AUTHORITY ZERO Release Video For LIFT ONE UP!

[fblike]
Mesa, Arizona’s influential punk veterans Authority Zero have just released their new video for “Lift One Up” off their current release “The Tipping Point” Out Now on Hardline Entertainment https://hardlineent.com/store. Catch the band on their upcoming RISE TO THE FALL US TOUR!

It’s finally here! Back in early 2014 we put out the concept of doing a “Shakeface” video for our latest single Lift One Up off The Tipping Point. The song embraces the concept of celebration of life, friendships, and the music that brings us all together in celebration of just that. The concept was meant to involve people from all around the world and so we asked everyone to send us in their “Shakeface” videos. The driving force behind it was to make our fans and friends the biggest part of the video and what it represented. Good times, good friends, and letting loose. Unfortunately many of the videos we received we unusable due to quality or misunderstanding, so rather than exclude anyone for that purpose, we’ve chosen to do two versions of the video. Here is the video we shot on location in Tempe, Arizona with the full on show combined with all our local friends and family doing the “Shakeface” and getting rad at the show that day. Jason broke a rib that day during performance (which we decided to leave in for fun), people were damn near passing out, and everyone had a killer time. A huge thank you from all of us to you for attending and making it possible! Shortly after the release of this video we will be also releasing a full on “Shakeface” video with every single video (regardless of quality or filming) in it! So here it is! After months of editing, re-editing, and conceptual changes, we present you with our Official Video Premier For “Lift One Up”!
Enjoy, Jason Devore

NATIONS AFIRE Debut Video For “BREAK YOUR FALL” at Revolvermag.com!

[fblike]

Los Angeles, CA – So-Cal rock band Nations Afire has premiered a new video for their song “Break Your Fall” today at RevolverMag.com. The track is featured on the band’s latest record, The Ghosts We Will Become, which is available now on iTunes and from Hardline Entertainment at www.HardlineEnt.com/store.


Watch Nations Afire’s new video for “Break Your Fall” now at RevolverMag.com: http://www.revolvermag.com/?p=63206


Nations Afire’s video for “Break Your Fall” was directed by the band’s bassist Brett Rasmussen and Timmy Lunsford, filmed by Exit House Films, edited by Lunsford and shot in the band’s hometown of Los Angeles.


“We wanted to shoot the video in the middle of the night in downtown LA to show the beauty of the city after dark,” Rasmussen explains. “We shot the video over a couple nights between the hours of 12am-4am, it was basically a ghost town at that point and we could just wander around anywhere and capture some really cool images. Having Nik walk through the city on his way to rehearsal was a cool way to showcase the city scape of LA at night. Most musicians rehearse late at night, which is a pretty unique thing about being in a band, usually people go to work at 9am and are inside all day. Musicians typically start rehearsing late at night when the rest of the world is sleeping.”


“The song “Break Your Fall” is written directly from my experience growing up with my little band of friends and compatriots,” adds singer Nik Hill. “We dreamed big and fucked each other over and picked each other up so many times it shaped the men we became. The music and the lifestyle we led was reckless but it gave us purpose and a possible future, some of us made it out and some of us did not. The words in this song are an homage to the most influential time of my life, and a bond that will always be there, no matter where we all would land.”


Comprised of former guitarist for Rise Against, Chris Chasse, vocalist/guitarist Nik Hill and bassist Brett Rasmussen of OC hardcore band Ignite and ex-Death By Stereo drummer Todd Hennig, Nations Afire are an alternative rock band from Los Angeles.  Their latest record, The Ghosts We Will Become, features incendiary rock-radio anthems like “I Am An Army,” “Nine Lives,” and  “The Ghost We Will Become.” The video for “Break Your Fall” is their fourth and final video from the album. The band will begin working on new material for their next release soon.

Nations Afire Tour Dates:

June 29 – Fullerton, CA – Programme Skate/Sound

Pre-Sale Contest for THE BUNNY GANG (feat. Nathen Maxwell of Flogging Molly)!

[fblike]

CLICK HERE TO ORDER!

TBG_Pre-Sale_Image

In anticipation of The Bunny Gang’s sophomore record, Thrive will be released on September 23rd via Hardline Entertainment! The Southern California based label has launched a pre-sale contest which gives purchasers a chance to win a Fender Guitar with hard case, a pair of Lakai skate shoes or a Blatant skate deck! Purchasers will also get an advance track off the album, “Sirens Through The City”, which is available as a FREE DOWNLOAD via Hardline Entertainment’s most recent label Compilation.

The 11-track album was recorded at Sonic Ranch Studios in El Paso, TX with Producer Ryan Hewitt (Sheryl Crow, The Avett Brothers).

The band, which is fronted by Flogging Molly’s Nathen Maexwell, plays music that crosses the lines of rock, punk and reggae.

About The Bunny Gang

Nathen Mawell has the word Revolution tattooed prominently on his left wrist. However, It’s more than just a word for The Bunny Gang frontman and Flogging Molly bassist.

“It’s a sign of what time it is,” he affirms. “Revolution must be peaceful, nonviolent, and conscious. I think it can mean something different to everybody though. There can be a million interpretations, and that’s the wonderful thing about it.”

The Bunny Gang’s sophomore full-length, “Thrive” stands built on creative revolution. Transcending musical boundaries, The Bunny Gang Organically strut between alternative, folk, punk and reggae. Following up 2009’s acclaimed “White Rabbit,” it’s a tight and thought-provoking combination that makes for an irresistible sonic brew.

In order to stir up the eleven songs comprising the album, the gang retreated to Sonic Ranch in El Paso, TX with producer Ryan Hewitt (Sheryl Crow, The Avett Brothers). Tapping into an indescribable chemistry, the entire offering was cut in less than a week.

“The bands name comes from a punk rock crew I grew up with in the South Bay of Los Angeles called The Original Bunny Gang or OBG PUNX.  After playing with several great musicians, including my father Maxwell and my first ever bandmate Mike Peralta, in 2012, I met an amazing hearted and like- minded human being in Nat Lort-Nelson. He was the glue. There’s a deep history, and we share a philosophical outlook. We believe art should say something.”

That’s exactly what songs like the first single, “Sirens Through City,” do. Co-written with Scott Abels (Jimmy Cliff, The Aggrolites, Tim Armstrong & numerous other acclaimed artists) the song skates from a soulful riff into a poetic melody, it’s a personal and poignant rumination from the singer. He also encloses a hopeful message inside of the track.

“I wrote that song when I was living in Harbor City, which is a rough town in South Los Angeles,” he recalls. “I was literally sitting on the corner and hearing police sirens every night. At the same time, it’s a song of hope and making it out of the ghetto and thriving. If people could dream bigger and step outside of their bubble, they’d realize the world is a beautiful place.”

Elsewhere on the record, the energetic “Uprise Underground” appeals to revolutionaries everywhere, urging an awakening, while questioning the status quo. The Bunny Gang then floats down the river on “Illegal Market” co-written with Dennis Casey (Flogging Molly). This is an iridescent jam that showcases the bands love of Cumbia as well as a cry for social equality.

Ultimately, anybody who takes this ride with The Bunny Gang will feel that progression. “Life, art, and music are all evolution,” he concludes.  It sounds like revolution is just up head for The Bunny Gang.

LITCHFIELD PROMO PHOTO 3

DOWNLOAD A FREE TRACK HERE! https://hardlineent.com/product-category/free-downloads/

Growing up on Rock n Roll, House Parties, and California Sunshine, the Cali based Pop Rock Band Litchfield is all about having fun with their music and their fans. With the 2010 release of their “California Girls” EP Album, Litchfield set out again on the Vans Warped Tour to continue making a name for themselves. Having toured the country several times, Litchfield reached a new level of success in the summer of 2010 when their album the “California Girls EP” charted on in the top 10 on the 2010 Heatseekers Billboard Charts and reached Number 1 on the charts for both the East North Central and the West North Central Regions.

In the Summer of 2011 with the release of their full length album “New Beginnings” , Litchfield reached Number #1 in every U.S. Regional Market on the Billboard Heatseeker Charts for Albums on an Independent Label. Selling 13,937 copies of their Album “New Beginnings” Litchfield says that they plan to make their mark on the music industry and will continue to work hard, tour the country and write songs that make people feel good. Armed with a positive attitude, a good business plan, catchy songs that you can’t get out of your head, and the support of their Label Rogan Records, This band is destined to go far in the music industry. Consisting family and of best friends , Members Josua Helsel (Bass), Benji Hedman (Drums) , Mario SwagRock (Singer), and Adam Hedman (Lead Guitar/Backup Vocalist), Litchfield has become much more than just a band, it has become the story of 4 friends who continue to search for the meaning of life through music.

Litchfield is more than a Band, It is a Lifestyle. They started out by working hard and selling their music out of backpacks and walking the whole line outside of warped tour selling their albums. Now they have achieved a new level of success and are producing a more professional live show, higher quality music production in their albums, popular merchandise, and more tactical marketing strategies. In the future they believe that they will be a big part of the music industry, having a strong presence in radio, sales, marketing and playing large tours. They are looking to take their next step in the music industry by securing management and partnering with an established Record Label who can see the potential in their band and brand.
