Needmore

January 14th, 2011 in Endorsed Artists

NEEDMORE, hands down, is one of the hardest working musical groups today. Originating from Los Angeles, California in 2007, they have been writing, recording, and touring non-stop ever since.

Recently named the Number 1 Rock Band by MTV’s OurStage, NEEDMORE is one of the biggest buzz bands around. The New Music Seminar have actually teamed up with AOL Music, MTV, and OurStage to name the band one of it’s Top 5 “Artists On The Verge” of 2010. With their new single ‘Lost My Way’ quickly gaining traction, the spotlight is on them!

The band yields an exponentially growing fan-base, which was first noted when they sold out the Key Club in Hollywood for a major record label showcase. It has since grown into a national following, which is evident, given the fact that NEEDMORE has garnered over 8.5 MILLION spins on the social networking platform MySpace Music; accruing thousands of spins per day. Working very closely with TV & Film has also allowed NEEDMORE to acquire placements of their songs in major motion pictures (20th Century Fox, Lakeshore Entertainment), nationally televised commercials, and on soundtracks, along side of many accomplished and successful names in the music industry.

The new NEEDMORE single ‘Lost My Way’ caught the ear of Jeff Juliano (John Mayer, DMB, Lifehouse, Train, Paramore, etc.). It was recorded at a private studio in Washington D.C. with Tony Alany, mixed at Milestone Studios on the Atlantic coast of Delaware (with Jeff), then mastered at Sterling Sound in New York with Dave McNair (Flyleaf, OAR, Sara Barielles).

NEEDMORE’s previous self-titled album was released by DMG through Universal Music Group. It was recorded in Los Angeles with Grammy winning producer/engineer Wyn Davis (Guns N Roses, Sublime, No Doubt, MuteMath), Grammy nominated Producer Tom Keane (Kanye West, Chicago), and Grammy nominated engineer Joe Gastwirt (Pearl Jam, 311, Jimi Hendrix, S.R.V.). It features songs such as ‘Late Night Drive,’ ‘All I Need,’ and ‘Go,’ which has been placed in television commercials, films, and on soundtracks.

NEEDMORE is not just a great recording artist though, they pride themselves on their LIVE performance. The members of NEEDMORE have played in many venues across the world (from the world-famous ‘Hollywood Bowl,’ to New Years Celebrations in Mumbai, India, to national college tours across the country).

They currently support major label acts on national tours, as well as headline their own. Recently, NEEDMORE headlined two successful back-to-back national college tours! Their live show is a MUST SEE.

Their relentless touring schedule is in part due to the fact that they have been invited back to 100% of the venues they’ve played.

“It is fantastic to walk off stage, and have either the venue owner, promoter, or concert chair say “that performance was incredible! When can we have you back?” It it just so humbling as a band, and shows us how much we’ve impacted everyone that night,” says NEEDMORE’s frontman, Garrett McArthur

Their schedule is also in part due to the fact that NEEDMORE was the number 1 booked act (that didn’t showcase) at the N.A.C.A. National Entertainment Convention, and has been invited to perform at N.A.C.A. Regional Entertainment Conventions as well. It is now just a matter of time before NEEDMORE is a household name.
