Tuesday's Rain (band)
by RADxRadio in Entertainment
Tags: Tuesdays Rain music musicians rock duo
Tuesday's Rain emerges from the studio where they are currently working with Hollywood rock legend Brent Woods (Wildside/Warrant/Sebastian Bach/Vince Neil) with a fresh new offering to follow up their debut CD "Dream Another Day" released in 2009. "We Are One" is the first single and takes a political twist as the lyrics suggest comraderie and political deception. Father and son worked out the details in their home studio and recorded the demo with help of longtime associate and live sound engineer Matt Boehm of Affordable Soundworks. Bob sought out guidance from Hollywood Promoter and friend, Joe Sutton (Key Club/Knitting Factory) to begin working with Woods last summer. Woods took his impressive inspiration and personally dove into the project voice first. Harmonies and backing vocals accompanied by thick power chords and driving bass tracks shaped the song in a new direction. Tuesday's Rain has supported several memorable acts including LOVE/HATE, OTTO'S DAUGHTER, L.A. VELVET, SKUMLOVE, DIZZY LILACS, HONEYSMASH, THEORY OF FLIGHT, ASPEN, DILANA, THE CHIMPZ, HOLLYWOOD ALLSTARS, IN MEMORY, HARLOT, and many more!
