TWICE THE SUN Ink Deal With Roadrunner Records

April 26, 2002

Miami, Florida's “alternative metal” act TWICE THE SUN have signed a full-fledged recording agreement with Roadrunner Records following the recent completion of a three-song demo with producer Michael "Elvis" Baskette (i.e. INCUBUS, STONE TEMPLE PILOTS).

TWICE THE SUN came to Roadrunner as a joint signing between R2 Publishing head Dave Bason (aka, the man who brought THE STROKES to RCA) and Roadrunner A&R guy Mike Gitter (i.e. ILL NINO, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, GLASSJAW). Says Baskette: “They're an incredibly talented young band with an amazing singer that has the potential to write anything. They will explode!” Adds TWICE THE SUN keyboardist Damien Biltres: “We're ecstatic to be with Roadrunner and can't wait to get into the studio.”

Tentative plans are for TWICE THE SUN to hit the studio with Baskette in the early fall. An early 2003 release is expected.
