BOSTON, MA--(Marketwire - Sep 6, 2011) - PAID Inc. (
USA Today recently hailed "Get It Daddy," as their single Pick of the Week stating, "On this gloriously noisy groove-shifter, guitarist Tony Smith and Alex Kandel come off like Jack and Meg White's more playful cousins as they carom between breakneck syncopated sections and a singalong power-pop chorus."
Those who pre-order the album via the band's website before its September 27, 2011 release date will also receive a Sleeper Agent t-shirt that will arrive with their CD. Album package pre-orders are available on http://sleeperagentmusic.com/, with fulfillment handled by PAID Inc.
Hailing from Bowling Green, KY, Sleeper Agent is Tony "Tutone" Smith (Guitar, Vocals), Alex "Kidd" Kandel (Vocals), Justin "Keyser" Wilson (Drums), Josh "Junior" Martin (Guitar), Scott "Saga" Gardner (Keyboard, Synths) and Lee "Grizzlee" Williams (Bass). The band describes their music as akin to "The Ronettes on speed," and make hook-laden scuzzy garage-pop rooted in both soul and Southern rock. The band has spent the year winning over audiences while touring with Cage the Elephant, Biffy Clyro, Manchester Orchestra and more. Sleeper Agent will perform at the DeLuna Fest on October 14th, tour with Circa Survive from October 16th-26th and embark on the Weezer Cruise January 19-23, 2012. Look for more dates to be announced.
Sleeper Agent's first album has also impressed numerous others...
The Boston Phoenix has just named Sleeper Agent as the best new band from Kentucky in their list of the best new bands from each state.
"Sleeper Agent are about to sneak up on rock 'n' roll and take it over... [Celabrasion] is a dreamy, deep collection of tunes that is as hypnotic as it is hook-y. Harmonies... careen with a sunny stomp that exudes indie grit and attitude at just the right moments. They've got boundlessness a la The Pixies with a modern panache that makes for one of the best debuts of 2011. It's unforgettable alternative... "
Artist Direct
"These co-ed garage-rock saviors-in-waiting offer two minutes that sound like the most original -- and forceful -- introduction to a new band we're likely to hear all year."
Esquire
"A dozen deliriously catchy gems... it's the sound of high fives and Makers Mark spilling from the speakers."
