BRAND NEW SIN Begins Recording New Album

February 4, 2009

Syracuse, New York hard rock band BRAND NEW SIN has entered Subcat Music Studio in Skaneateles, New York to begin recording its fourth LP. The group says, "We have released two singles since joining forces with singer Joe Sweet in the spring of 2008. This will be Sweet's first full-length album with BRAND NEW SIN. Drums, bass and most of the guitar tracks are done. Aside from the song 'Fly', most of this material has been a well kept secret since it has not been performed live... yet."

When singer Joe Altier and BRAND NEW SIN parted ways amicably in January 2008, drummer Kevin Dean put word out on the band's several web sites that they were seeking a replacement. They received e-mails from about 50 hopefuls from around the country. "We didn't have time for a cattle call like 'American Idol', Dean told Syracuse's The Post-Standard. "So we started with an e-mail with some questions. 'Have you ever been in a band? Have you ever toured? Have you been on a label?'" They picked out their favorite 20 responses and asked them to send performance footage on DVD. "They were from California to Texas to Alabama, but mostly regional," Dean said.

Upcoming BRAND NEW SIN shows:

Feb. 06 - East Syracuse, NY - Frank's Country Roadhouse
Feb. 07 - Herkimer, NY - Rides
Mar. 13 - Mattydale, NY Mac's Bad Art Bar
Mar. 14 - Watertown, NY - Fatboys
Mar. 20 - Binghamton, NY - Voodoo Lounge
Mar. 21 - Oswego, NY - D. S. Humphrey's
