Clock Strikes XII + Band in Leesburg, VA

SEEKING

ABOUT

Clock Strikes XII is a high-energy alternative metal band from the VA/MD/DC area; featuring a 7-piece group of "anything goes" musicians, which put on a killer stage show - giving it 110 percent at your club or music festival. Rock with us at the "2013 CBGB Music Festival in NYC" this coming October.

CSXII brings a brand new flavor to the alternative metal genre. Modern metal core elements are blended with melodic multi-harmony guitar, keyboard, and vocal arrangements; setting the band apart on many levels. The band’s unique songwriting style and sound has been compared to that of popular alternative metal bands; “Avenged Sevenfold, Alexisonfire, Bullet for my Valentine” by PureGrainAudio.

Clock Strikes XII released the video "Enter-In" this year, which won the "2013 Best Alternative Metal Video of the Year" at the World Music & Independent Film Festival (WMIFF) in Washington D.C. "Enter-In" can be seen on be, over 75 rock/metal video websites (PureGrainAudio, Gotham Rocks, etc.), and on several regional broadcast and cable TV channels (Knockout Live, Ovation TV, Rebel Access TV, etc.). The video was directed by Sean Babas (Monster, BET, E!, MTV #1 Video - KDrew - "One").

The band’s soon to be released album "Gasping for Air" is scheduled for a Spring 2014 release. The album was produced by Don Debiase (Studio D/Standby Records) and Rob Skyler (Studio North Recording).

Members Of Band

Band Member Ages 20-25: Dusty Skyy, Nate Garrison, Chris Peters, Sam Athanas, Nestor Idler, Jonah Amster, and Zy Entorf.

Accomplished musicians with no issues whatsoever. Down to earth great group of guys.

***We are looking for talented musicians to fill-in from time-to-time at live shows and festivals, when a permanent band member is just not available to perform. If you are a great musician, willing to learn the song set, and we like you, there is always the possibility of advancing to a permanent position in the band in the near future.

We have shows lining up for this fall and winter and will have opportunities available for you to play with the band. Travel (East Coast) may be required upon receiving sufficient notice. Shows booked include Empire-Nova w/ Ill Nino, CBGB 2013 Music Festival NYC, etc. We are also planning an east coast mini-tour (1-2 weeks) in November.

CSXII will be releasing a 12-song album "Gasping for Air" Spring 2014 and heading back to studio to record a second album early next year. We are not signed with a record label just yet, but well on our way. We have a national video and radio promotional campaign with Rive Promotions and The Syndicate in progress, an agent through Standby Records, and other exciting activities underway.

Band Members and management are very serious about taking the band to the next level nationally.*** I can't think of a better opportunity to play and perhaps join a band that has a great shot in the music industry ***. Call Band Manager Rob Skyler at (703) 431-7291 to schedule an audition and/or send your demo to: rskylernxtstp.

We look forward to you joining our team!!! Click on the video link (to left) to see the band members in action recording the video "Enter-In" in Nashville, TN.
