Myth & Judgment Voted Best Local CD Release of 2007
Rosemary Gates is proud to announce that Myth & Judgment
was voted the best local CD release of 2007 by fans and readers of local
entertainment guide, WhatzUp Magazine.
We are extremely proud of this award," said guitarist
Michael Archbold. "Not only is it nice to be recognized for the hard work
and effort we put into this record, but we are especially proud of it because
it represents local ORIGINAL music. In recent years, it seems, original music
has taken a backseat to party bands and cover tunes. Those things are fine and
we have been part of that scene in the past as well, but as artists, the true
joy for our band has been in writing and producing our own music. Bassist Bryan
Bankson adds, "You aren't anything unless you are laying down your own
grooves! We hold ourselves to the highest standards of writing and producing
music. We really dedicate ourselves fully to that pursuit; even more so now
than in the past."
In 2004, the band invested in its own record company and
recording studio; King James Records & Studio. This investment has enabled
the band to be more creative and eclectic in its musical pursuits. Vocalist
Christian Schult adds, "With us owning our own studio, expect more frequent
releases from the band."
Currently, Rosemary Gates has two projects under way
including a new studio album due out late 2008. The band is also working on a
video re-release of Myth & Judgment, which will include a video
presentation of the album, live performance material, and interviews with the
band.
Be sure to pick up a copy of Myth & Judgment at all
local Wooden Nickel and Borders Bookstore locations and online at
DigStation.com, Napster.com, and I-Tunes.
