New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Earshot Media) Hey have you heard of the UK band SHARKS? They were named one of Alternative Press' 100 Bands You Need to Know in 2011 and will be on the entire Vans Warped Tour this summer. Starting April 26th the band will touring the US with
Social Distortion and Chuck Ragan. See dates below.
Sharks' US debut The Joys Of Living 2008-2010 comes out April 5, in a unique partnership between their own label
Velvet Scene and Rise Records. The 14-song album is actually a compilation of sorts, showcasing the band's first 2 years worth of recorded material ('Shallow Waters' and 'Show Of Hands' EP's and the 'Common Grounds' single) as well as 2 brand new songs.
This band is seriously AMAZING!! Check out their video for "It All Relates" here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtL0gxV0aaw&feature=player_embedded
Here's another link to their song "Sweet Harness": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IDxTi_X96s&feature=player_embeddedNo at=38

Please let me know if I can send over a link to download the new record and if we can set up a review and/or interview. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks!!
