New CD by Headshine hits iTunes + more tour dates announced
•
The
debut record "Better Things" by Headshine
recently caught the attention of CBS radio. "Headshine, create music
which conjures up these quintessential California moments with warm-bodied
Latin acoustics, Bob Marley-inspired reggae riffs, persuasive percussion,
and a fearless fader scratching that gives their sound an understated
edge. Much like the typical native Californian, Headshine is a musical
mosaic of melodies effortlessly melting into each other, supported by
luminous lyrics prompting the listeners towards self-compassion and
positive action. This sound transmuted into feeling is the kind of experience
that has prompted many a youthful daydreamer into finding their own
dreams with the peaceful churn of the Pacific Ocean as their soundtrack."
-KROQ
Word of mouth kick-started the Huntington Beach artist toward the national stage and now Headshine is traveling cross country, and opening for iconic artists such as Ziggy Marley, England's renown English Beat, Jamaican reggae legends The Wailers, pop-punk’s Less Than Jake, the national rock band Lit, The Supervillians, Sashamon, and Al Anderson's Original Wailers.
Headshine recently performed live on television at Sundance Film Festival and also headlined the Morro Bay Beer Festival. Headshine performed at the grand opening of Villa San Juliette Vineyard hosted by TV producers Ken Warwick / Nigel Lythgoe, and was also featured in a new commercial by Metrolink. Headshine received 2 nominations from the 2012 OC Music Awards and was recently interviewed by KROQ after returning from a US tour to open for The Wailers @ House of Blues Anaheim.

"Headshine
realize their dreams with chill, acoustic “Cali” rock. After being nominated
for Best Acoustic Band for the OC Music Awards last year, Headshine
embarked on a massive tour around the country which culminated with
a show with The Wailers" KROQ.com- • “The band sounded great. Guests enjoyed it, people were definitely engaged." -Sr. Operations Manager, House of Blues Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, Nevada
Press | Media Highlights
• “People have trust in my ear, they are going to dig what they hear so keep me posted when you’re coming thru Vegas again and I’ll send folks to go with me to further scope you guys out." -Senior Account Manager, CBS Radio, Las Vegas KMXB Mix 94.1 FM
• "The guys were amazing. Nothing but positive and amazing reviews from students, colleagues, and staff. They were professional, on time, great to work with, and shared amazing talent. We will be putting this down in our records as a band to bring back in the very near future." -USU Events, Cal State University Northridge
• "The students loved Headshine. There are requests for CDs and another performance. It was a pleasure having them perform for us." -Associated Students of Idaho State University
• "This sounds great! I'm gonna give it a spin on my show tonight!" -91X FM, San Diego
•
"The Huntington Beach singer/songwriter has cultivated a surfer/acoustic
sound with a touch of reggae and California sunshine. With the backing
of major-label producer, Jim Perkins and with the premiere of his first
single "Better Things" on San Diego's 91X, things are definitely looking
up..." -Performer Magazine
• “When you hear of a local band opening for Bob Marley’s legendary The Wailers, presumably you have high expectations for that band’s talent. Without any doubt, Headshine is the right band to get you in the mood. They provide a fresh smooth-mood sound of their native Huntington Beach, and are one band not to miss in Orange County." MusicInPress
• "They were great, and people definitely liked them." -Management of SoHo, Santa Barbara
• "They were amazing." -On The Rox, Roxy Theatre Hollywood
• "Headshine keeps it poppy and positive, very refreshing for a modern rock band. In 2009, a song written and performed as a one-time demo reached the ears of major label producer Jim Perkins and that kick-started the Huntington Beach, Calif., band toward the national stage. Now the group is traveling cross country.." Illinois Times
