Steve Martin (bass)
A faint sound was heard somewhere in Orlando, Florida not too long ago. It
continued to grow until it was forced to be heard. This was the sound of five
individuals creating something different, something that had not been heard in
such a manner. Blending elements of contemporary hardcore, rock and roll, and
old school metal, Hand To Hand let go of the boundaries and limitations their
previous efforts had placed on them, and played what was in their collective
hearts. With vocals that range from singing to screaming, the band disarms you
with their melodic hooks, only to knock you down with brutal emotional
breakdowns. But the band keeps growing, and at a spectacular rate. In little
over half a year, they have accomplished what most unsigned artists take years
to achieve.
Hand To Hand's debut five song EP, "Fast Forward Your Thoughts" is a stunning
introduction to their distinctive world. With Producer James Paul Wisner
(Dashboard Confessional, Further Seems Forever, 36 Crazy Fists) at the helm,
the band have created a record that stays true to the hardcore scene that they
hold dear, and the rock world waiting to embrace them.
The band has thus far spent their short life touring all over the South East
with artists like Minus Driver (Universal Records), assaulting audiences with
their intense live performance and packing key hometown venues such as The Hard
Rock Live. Drawing 300+ devoted followers to each show.
With their freshman recording under their belt, a growing loyal fan base, a
relentless dedication to getting out on the road, and the concrete support of
their new record label Life Force Records, Hand To Hand continues to leave a
trail of bloody broken guitar strings and astonished spectators everywhere they
go. They prove time and time again, that they can honor their past with no fear
of the future.
Look for Hand To Hand's debut album 'A Perfect Way To Say Goodbye', out on
Life Force Records Feb. 22, 2005!
