This is for all you Hardcore fans out there. Forget Tomorrow is a six member Screamo/Post-Hardcore/Electronica band from Wolcott, CT. Forget Tomorrow formed in January of 2009 and released their first full-length album in August of 2010. The title of that 9-track album is “In Search Of Salvation" and it is available on iTunes for any of you who are interested. The band has been working vigorously since the last album on the upcoming album which will be released soon titled "The Lies We Breathe."

Here is the official video for "Footprints Set In Stone"



It amazes me that this band has not been signed yet, but after the upcoming album is released I bet this will change. They currently have one single released off of their new album, which I have embedded below for your listening pleasure. Be sure to check out their facebook and Twitter for updates on tour dates and the album release!

Enjoy!

Hotels & Highways is a three piece band that formed only a year ago in September 2010. The band members are: Patrick Thomas,
Erin "Syd" Sidney, and Lisa Piccirillo. All the members also have their own solo projects, all of which are successful. Their album "Lost River" was released in March 2011. The album has been described as: "gleeful blend of country, pop, and rock and roll…that sounds more like the product of a group that had been together for years rather than a mere week and a half," (Dan Bolles, Seven Days VT).

Give the entire album a listen and tell me what you think:


Hotels & Highways is currently on tour. Their upcoming shows are:
