Heartist (10/6/12)



In celebration of their recent signing, I thought I'd share a great band called Heartist. Heartist started in early 2011 with two guitarists, Tim and John. They had come from another band that had recently broken up, and they decided to give it another shot. They originally were going to do a couple of demos, but the more stuff they wrote, they decided to shoot for an EP. They had Matt on drums, who at the time was playing with Norma Jean, track for them.  Matt ended up leaving Norma Jean later on, after a little convincing by the group. They picked up their bassist very late last year to complete the lineup.

They are now the newest band to be signed to Roadrunner Records. The band consists of vocalist Bryce Beckley, guitarists Jonathan Gaytan and Tim Koch, drummer Matt Marquez and bassist Evan Ranallo. Their self-produced, six-song EP, Nothing You Didn't Deserve, will be available on iTunes on October 16. In the meantime, get to know the band on Facebook, follow them on Twitter, and check HeartistBand.com for updates; the band will be rolling out lyric videos for each track from the EP in the coming weeks.
