Saving Abel has emerged in recent years as one of the most successful rock bands in the United States. The band is widely known via multi-format hits at radio, and has taken the stage at hundreds of venues across the U.S. Like many of their rock brethren, a true picture of who they really are individually and collectively is just beginning to take shape as critical mass builds. When that picture comes in to focus, the colorful, yet truly down home, altruistic, and sincere personalities of these five men will emerge.
Saving Abel formed in Corinth, Mississippi in 2004. Four years later on March 11, 2008, the quintet's major label debut was released by Virgin Records. One year and five days later on March 16, 2009, it was certified gold by the RIAA.
In looking forward towards their second studio album MISS AMERICA, the band is optimistic that their evolution and experience will serve them well. Guitarist Bartlett observes, "We are creating the new Southern Rock. Not to say we are pioneers, but it is VERY exciting. We are five unique individuals with five dominant personalities. This is typically an ingredient for disaster, but we make it work and wouldn't have it any other way." Drummer Dixon continues, "We've become better writers and musicians. You go from working a 9 to 5 to playing music all day every day, and you get better." Bassist Taylor adds, "The heavy's are definitely heavier, but this album shows how much we have improved as writers and musicians." As guitarist Null sees it, "We are evolving into our own as a band, and picking up where `Addicted' left off. Singer Weeks adds, "The second album is definitely going to bring more of an in-depth Southern Rock sound, and it is going to show more of who we are as a band. Totally excited about this one!", ISBN13: B003DU50NQ ISBN10: B003DU50NQ Material Type: audioCD
