Starting Over Fresh!

South Florida natives "Every You" have been hitting the indie rock scene on and off since their creation way back in 2009.  Often compared to "The Dangerous Summer," the band has taken some time to sit back and rethink/develop their sound and overall image.  Shooting for something a little more along the lines of early "Jimmy Eat World" or "The Foo Fighters," the three guys are looking to fill some big name shoes.

After less than a year together Every You released their debut EP - "A Change of Scene" circa 2009 which is where the band gets the majority of their press and following.  After the release the guys of Every You were named one of PureVolume.com's "Top Unsigned Bands of 2009" and were added to the list over at AbsolutePunk.net known simply as "Top 100 of 2009." With all the hype surrounding the band and their current release they took the momentum to get out on the road and really push everything as far as they could.

But wait, wasn't this all released years ago? Why am I talking about this? Well it is always good to know where a band came from before you check out what they are doing now.  At least in my opinion!


With such early success, it is easy to lose sight of what you wanted out of a project or the direction you really wanted to take everything.  Every You understood this and rather than push the project and end up where they ended up, they took the time to analyze themselves and because of that began to redevelop themselves musical and just overall. However it isn't enough for a band to rethink things and come out swinging, there has to be some sort of game plan, or everything will have been for nothing.  Every You has been hard at work crafting their new sound and writing loads of new material which is slowly getting unveiled one song at a time via AbsolutePunk.net.  They have set up weekly releases of their new music exclusively on AP to ensure both exposure, and maintained press.  The new songs are only up for a week, and then replaced by the next.  It is this kind of new thinking that will ensure people get a chance to see/hear exactly what the guys have to offer.

The three week campaign will end next Thursday with the third and final track going up.  Only time will tell if this exclusive release campaign will pay off, but one thing is for sure, new and old fans will defiantly be getting just a taste, and left wanting more!

New Comer Releases Another HUGE Track!

Madeira is a relatively knew band based in Orlando, FL and although new to the music scene, they are in no way just getting started!

With the release of their first demo late last year, Madeira has gotten significant exposure and recognition from some of the heavy hitters in the industry.  Purevolume.com has been long known for helping break new bands and give just about anyone a place to showcase their music.  The team over at PureVolume really took a heavy liking to the guys in Madeira and after just short time voted them one of the top unsigned bands of 2010! If you follow the link provided Madeira was not only on the list, but actually managed to land a spot in the Top 5, ending up in the forth position.

The success of their first release has been felt all over the Florida music scene, with the band headlining the Daytona Winter Jam 2011, as well as making an appearance on Orlando Live, an online television show where they where voted to play an encore by the viewers.  Madeira will be playing the Florida Music Festival April 7th where they will be debuting their new single "Enemies."












Madeira has taken account of the current trends in the music industry and rather than spend months at a time recording an entire album where only a handful of songs might be heard, they will be releasing singles to ensure that all of their music is heard!

Enemies is the first new single since the release of their first demo, and has already started to create quite a buzz around the industry.  It is currently available for purchase on iTunes for only $1.  If you are interested in the band I strongly suggest picking it up.  The rest of their music can be streamed and downloaded via their PureVolume Account.
