Los Angeles, CA. (Top40 Charts/ Natives Of The New Dawn Official Website) - Following the success of a 35-date D.I.Y summer tour in '07 in support of their latest release Bliss, which included 15 stops on the Van's Warped Tour, and a truncated 2-week fall tour, Natives are hitting the road again this winter making 23-stops across the country.
Named as 'one of the thirteen best unsigned bands in North America' for their participation in the Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands 10 (2006), Natives appear to be a model for the newly liberated, working indie band; showing success independently in a defunct record industry where Majors continue to loose and a wide open market is allowing independent bands and labels the opportunity to take advantage of resources once not available to them without the Major's support. In the wake of this industry turmoil bands like Natives have been able to create opportunities using their resilience and ingenuity to shine light on a new dawn in the music industry.
Over the course of the Natives three-year history, the six piece Detroit-bred 'Consciously driven, Motown inspired Rock/Hip Hop mash-up,' (TMZ.com) has been nominated for 15 Detroit Music Awards ('04-'07), spent three consecutive summer's appearing on the Van's Warped Tour, and participated in the Emergenza Battle of the Bands in 2004 which took them all the way to the finals in Germany where they finished second out of over 7000 bands worldwide.
As Natives continue to shape and sculpt their own formula for success, expect to hear more from this tremendously talented and diverse live act. Natives are also tentatively scheduled to perform on the entire Warped Tour in Summer of 2008.
