Long Island, NY Hard Rock band Blameshift have announced they will co-headline a tour this fall with The Nearly Deads that will be sponsored by Strüng. The tour will kick off on October 12 in Stanhope, NJ and then conclude on November 2 in Nashville, TN.
Blameshift premiered the music video for their single “Monster” through VEVO earlier this year. The video directed by Eric Schneider coined the hashtag #iamamonster, showing the dirty path of a dollar bill, making a monster out of everyone it encounters. The video now has over 121,450 views on YouTube.
The band released Heart of Stone in mid 2016 while touring with New Years Day, Sylar and My Enemies and I. Before that Blameshift had been touring straight for nearly 8 years, logging over 1 million miles on the road, playing everything from the Vans Warped Tour to American Airlines Arena.
As an independent band Blameshift has accomplished more than they could have ever imagined. They have landed endorsements with the biggest music companies in the world like PRS Guitars, Sennheiser, GHS Strings & Bogner Amps as well as COLDCOCK Whiskey, Venue Magic and Sullen Clothing. They have toured alongside and shared the stage with bands like Pop Evil, Adelita’s Way, Sick Puppies, Straight Line Stitch, 12 Stonesand Black Stone Cherry to name just a few. They’ve lived in Los Angeles for months at a time, writing and recording songs with producer and mentor, Erik Ron (Issues, Set It Off, New Year’s Day) and have landed dates on the Vans Warped Tour. Their music has been played on TV shows on MTV, Oxygen, E! Network and more. Their songs have charted on Active Rock Radio Charts and has been played on Sirius XM as well as hundreds of other radio stations nationally and internationally.
Rising Nashville rock band The Nearly Deads have released their hotly-anticipated new EP, Revenge of the Nearly Deads, on vinyl, CD and digitally for purchase and stream via Kobalt Music.
Led by the inimitable vocalist Theresa Jeane along with Steven Tobi (guitar), Kevin Koelsch (bass), Javier Garza Jr. (guitar) and Josh Perrone (drums), The Nearly Deads are one of the hottest, rising rock bands to come out of Nashville.
The band’s amalgam of powerful pop vocals and aggressive alternative rock music combined with their love of all things geek and messages of positivity and empowerment creates a truly unique style that’s garnering attention from media and fans around the world. Their lyrics inspire and motivate with themes of moving on, taking control of your life, and being unapologetically true to yourself.
The band are fans of movies, video games and other pop culture media and like to reference their favorites in their music, videos and merchandise. This is something their fans, who are referred to as “zombies”, love about them and it has helped them make a deeper connection to them. With that said, the band had viral success of their zombie fueled video for “Never Look Back” at over 7 million views!
TND have toured with bands In This Moment, Butcher Babies, Upon A Burning Body, Stitched Up Heart, Eyes Set to Kill, and opened for Halestorm as well as All American Rejects. They have also played Warped Tour, Summer Fest, Rock Fest, Journeys Back Yard BBQ and Pride Fest.
