Release Notes:
Enjoy another fine release from your friends. Seems the
production wasn't top notch for this disc, so I included a pic.
LOOK MA, NO SKIPS!
Remember, if you <3 us, we <3 you.
Enjoy!
Starting as Dane Schmidt's acoustic project in the summer of 2003,
Jamestown Story hails from Duluth, Minnesota. Now the full band
includes Pat Tarnowski on electric guitar and vocals, Kieren Smith
on violin, Chris Lee on drums, and Chad Snell on bass.
Self-described as acoustic Indie rock, influences include Dave
Matthews Band, John Mayer, Blink 182, and hardcore music such as
Underoath.
Their first full-length acoustic album, Broken Summer, has sold
over 5,000 copies after its release in August 2003. The Jamestown
Story EP sold 4,000 copies in under a year after its October 2005
release, and is currently number sixteen CD on Smartpunk.coms Top
100 Selling CDs of All-Time. Even more impressive is that the
unsigned JS has had three million plays on Myspace.com alone.
Always sticking to the ethic that hard work pays off, JS heralded
their Back to Basics Tour in the Midwest and just finished up the
JS X-Mass Tour. Plans for 2007 include writing and presenting
demos to labels, hoping to change that illusive status to signed.
And of course more touring, hitting the West Coast in
February/March and then the East Coast in March/April.
With songs such as Goodbye Im Sorry, the band hopes to relay the
message that we are not alone in our hardships. Getting through
tough times is something the band knows well, and the fact that
they have messages such as where to get help via a suicide hotline
only emphasizes the notion of hope and maturity. With supportive
families and fans, JS tries to give back meaningful songs
retaining that edge theyve developed. And with a firm foundation
in place, Jamestown Story is moving forward with a team only
looking out for their best interests as they set out to assert
what theyve worked so hard to develop.
