| |
| 2008 is shaping up to be a very successful year for Pop Evil which has |
| steadily built a grassroots following since forming in November of 2001. |
| Leigh Kakaty (lead vocals), Dave Grahs (Guitar), and Dylan Allison |
| formed the early stages of the band in Grand Rapids, Michigan. They |
| recently signed to upstart record Label Pazzo Music run by 25 year music |
| veterans George Cappellini and Charlie Brusco. |
| |
| After continually playing shows throughout the Midwest Pop Evil decided |
| to go into the studio with Al Sutton (Kid Rock) to record. In 2005 the |
| band released their first EP entitled ôReady or Not.ö Already having |
| sold over 12,000 copies throughout the Mid West the band is ready to |
| release their upcoming debut album. Leigh claims that ôIt is amazing to |
| see the level of support that we now receive in areas other than our |
| home town (Grand Rapids). Everywhere we go fans know the words to our |
| songs. It feels really good to see people relating to and embracing the |
| music that we have created.ö |
| |
| In 2007, the band recruited Muskegon natives Tony Greve (Guitar) and |
| Matt DiRito to help compliment the bandÆs sound and stage show. Soon |
| after, the band teamed up with Al Sutton, and Marlon Young (Kid Rock), |
| to help lay the foundation for their new album ôLipstick on the Mirror.ö |
| In May of 2008, the band finished recording ôLipstick on the Mirrorö at |
| Pearl Sound with producer Chuck Alkazian. The album hits stores August |
| 12th, 2008. |
| |
| While the word is getting out due to a tireless touring schedule that |
| sees the band playing well over 100 shows a year, the members know they |
| owe it all to the local people that supported the music from the |
| beginning. In the fall of 2006 their song ôSomebody Like Youö hit the |
| radio waves and currently has over 1200 total media base spins on the |
| most popular rock station in the area, 97.9 WGRD, and is currently the 1 |
| most requested song in the city of Grand Rapids. Dave Grahs recently |
| indicated, ôFrom the beginning it meant a lot to see our friends embrace |
| what we were doing, but it didnÆt really set in just how much our local |
| market stood behind us until I was driving down the road and heard our |
| single (Somebody Like You). |
| |
| Due to that demand more Pop Evil music is poised to soon start playing |
| on rock radio stations around the country. Their music video for the |
| track æSomebody Like YouÆ was shot by Jason Honeycutt and features Rossi |
| Morreale and Britt Koth of MTVÆs show 8th and Ocean. Soon after it was |
| picked up by MTV Latin America, the video was a mainstay in the top 10. |
| MTV has been increasing its support of the band, recently featuring the |
| music on the hit show MADE. More support is sure to come in the near |
| future. Pop EvilÆs album "Lipstick On The Mirror" produced by Al Sutton |
| and Chuck Alkazian who has worked with Kid Rock for 10 years hits stores |
| later this year. The first single ôHeroö is currently charted at the |
| Rock format. With so much momentum, the band is excited about touring |
| throughout Michigan and is looking to book dates throughout the United |
| States |
