███▓ R E L E A S E N O T E S : ▓███
███▓ ▓███
▓███ Whenever other people talk about East L.A. they always use ███▓
████ Mexican stereotypes about taco vendors, druggies and casanovas. ████
████ Let me set the record straight -we've never sold tacos. -Ric ████
████ Moon, guitarist. ████
████ ████
████ Tremendous, incandescent British sounding rock music is ████
████ probably the last thing that comes to mind when you think of ████
████ South East LA. So it's a breathtaking revelation when you hear ████
████ the chiming guitars and swooning vocals of The Tender Box. ████
████ Inspired by the post punk and synth pop groups of the 1980s, ████
████ the band was formed by four childhood friends in the ████
████ predominantly Mexican American neighborhood of South Gate. So ████
████ how did the rain stained, somber, murky sounds of Manchester ████
████ and Sheffield resonate with kids living in the perpetually sun ████
████ drenched California? ████
████ ████
████ As impossible as it sounds, Bassist Steve Mungarro explains, ████
████ "Our brothers, sisters and cousins were listening to bands like ████
████ The Cure and Depeche Mode so we never knew any different." They ████
████ grew up playing in bands in their friends garages mimicking the ████
████ sounds that they loved so much. Vocalist/guitarist Joey Medina ████
████ concurs, Even though its sunny and hot in L.A. we grew up in a ████
████ lower income, industrial city that is probably not that ████
████ different than a Manchester or Birmingham in England. Its no ████
████ Beverly Hills and sometimes it could be a rough town. ████
████ ████
████ So maybe its the impossibility of finding four Mexican-American ████
████ childhood friends who grew up in South Gate obsessing over ████
████ synth pop and post punk groups of the 80s that made The Tender ████
████ Box an almost immediate hit in Hollywood. Los Angeles had a ████
████ small yet cultish scene of devout anglophile music fans and The ████
████ Tender Box boys were at the forefront of the new Indie scene. ████
████ The lush and despairing decadence of Britpop appealed to their ████
████ sensibilities and their own personal histories. ████
████ ████
████ Henceforth, The Tender Box would continue to immerse themselves ████
████ in a veritable fusion of musical tastes and seemingly disparate ████
████ cultures. They fine-tuned their recipe for success blending the ████
████ two worlds effortlessly. After getting the right batch of songs ████
████ together, the guys hit the club circuit up and down the west ████
████ coast. People undoubtedly noticed. They have headlined hipster ████
████ hot spot CafΘ Bleu, been praised by L.A.s legendary D.J. Rodney ████
████ Bingenheimer on his "Rodney On The Roq" radio show, been ████
████ frequently spun on Indie 103.1 and Sirius Radio and have even ████
████ landed a primo licensing spot on a Canadian Chevy commercial ████
████ which featured their song Mister Sister all before signing a ████
████ record deal. ████
