nightly gratitudes.

So tonight is going to be a little different then most. Tonight I am going to talk about only one thing I would like to dedicate my gratitude to.

'Season Premiere video is amazing! Great stuff, would like to see more of this band'
'The Season Premiere's music video was PHENOMENAL!!'
'I love love The Season Premiere's music video! It's more than pretty amazing and the ending is golden. :) Not to mention, now I can't get Anything But Love out of my head...:)'

'Um, Loved the video. :) The videography was awesome--angles, light, everything. And the music is awesome. :)'

Above is a very small taste of some of my favorite comments left on the Glamour Kills Facebook Wall since yesterday when we released the video for 'Anything But Love'. Never did I think a year ago when Justin and I were talking across the country to each other (he in Tempe, AZ and myself in Albany, NY) that this would be happening. That this much positive feedback would be coming our way. Hell never did I think I would get a three person crew together to drive across the country with a couple hundred bucks in our pockets that we raised through Kickstarter. The boys of The Season Premiere have really changed my life...all corniness aside. I am not just referring to the video and the career opportunities...but I'm more so referring to how real, talented, down to earth, passionate, unique, and insane these boys are. Their music brings such a catchy, uplifting, 90s throwback feel that I think maybe the music realm has lost touch of. Their music isn't just about the cliches but the true and bare emotions that they personally have endured in their lives. Isn't that what music is supposed to be about? I know it used to be.

Less than a month ago I was sitting in Justin's car with Jami(part of my lovely crew), Travis, and Terrence listening to the full EP (to be released on the 23rd of August) called 'For All the Lovers' for the first time. And I remember to this moment how lost,in the most amazing way possible, that I got in the music. Maybe that's because I knew where a lot of the stories told in the melodies came from, but maybe it was also because of the sound they offer through each note Justin sings, to the smoothness of Travis's back up vocals and raw guitar talent, to Riley's insane ability to pound his heart into every beat of the drum, and Terrence's love to strum the bass. Yes 'Anything But Love' is a catchy-radio friendly-fun song, but the rest of the EP?! Pheww you better watch out.

I am so grateful for not only meeting these boys but for the opportunity of working with them and helping them live their dreams. The smile across their faces when they pick up their instruments and see a crowd in front of them is just unbelievable. If you doubt The Season Premiere at all as a band go to The Glamour Kills Facebook page and that doubt will surely disappear. I myself know from working at Glamour Kills that they seldomly get a response like that to many bands. The fact that so many people responded in less than 20 hours- over 1300 views on youtube, traffic like crazy on the Glamour Kills Blog, over 175 facebook comments, and tweets up the Wazzoo--is nuts. Quotes right from some of my good friends at Glamour Kills were 'We were so impressed.' 'What the hell did you do right for this to happen?!' Everyone keep in mind The Season Premiere is an unsigned band and I think they have proved it is possible to get somewhere in this music business even if unsigned. Mike Gentile from Hey Monday, Mark from Glamour Kills, Brian the lead singer of The Summer Set, Craig Owens of Drugs, The Gunz Show, and The Downtown Fiction are just SOME of the people already in the business who believed in The Season Premiere enough to spread the love.... That's not even including the hundreds of fans, family members, and friends who took the time to listen, enjoy and spread our hard work. Now it's your turn....what do you think? Check out our video at www.glamourkills.com/blog and you will be just as amazed.

I think we were all very lucky to meet one another and I know we all appreciate one another more and more everyday. ( Love you boys-Justin, Travis, Terrence, Riley and Matt & to my crew all the love in the world- Jami, Alex ,Dan & Joe)

I am grateful for yesterday. I am grateful for today. I am grateful for tomorrow. I am grateful for them. and I am grateful for us.

xoxo
