SAOSIN
Bio: In addition to releasing their well-received self-titled full-length debut from Capitol Records in 2006, Newport Beach, California-based rock band Saosin have toured relentlessly on the Warped, Taste of Chaos and Projekt Revolution tours and with artists as diverse and successful as Linkin Park, Avenged Sevenfold, AFI, My Chemical Romance, 30 Seconds To Mars and Taking Back Sunday.
Two years on the road has turned Saosin from a musically proficient band into a visually dynamic, fist-tight ensemble capable of winning over fans of multiple genres with their rapturous, powerful songcraft. On March 11, music lovers will be able to experience the sights and sounds of Saosin live when the band releases it’s first DVD and CD package, Come Close.
The DVD features 15 tracks recorded in hi-definition on November 3 at Philadelphia’s The Theater of Living Arts. Highlights include a rousing performance of “Voices,” the emotional “Bury Your Head” and the heart-aching yet equally uplifting “You’re Not Alone,” which Saosin dedicated to U.S. Troops in Iraq on Veterans Day. The band sent out a video message with the song to the soldiers through their MySpace and email list, encouraging them to put together their own Fliptrack video that expressed messages of hope, love and support for loved ones serving abroad. To date, the video posted on fliptrack.com has received almost 1.5 million page views
