Up and Coming Young Artists Embrace Rock Music with a Blend of New and Old Delta, B.C., July 26, 2005 - Munch Music, Inc. - www.MyMunchMusic.com and www.RockandRollDream.com presented a live in-house acoustic performance on the evening of Friday, July 22, 2005 featuring local talent, Geoff Mason accompanied on guitar in several songs by Munch's co-founder and Director, 16 year old Taylor Van Zant. The newly opened classic rock themed recording studio and music facility will be providing an onstage venue for new artists to perform live in front of small intimate audiences. Friday's acoustic performance was a sharp contrast to the recent hard rock live performance at Munch's launch performed by "White Noise", evidencing the diversity and blends of rock music. (More info about White Noise: http://www.mymunchmusic.com/NR/news_release_071905.htm) Recent Event: Geoff Mason Acoustic Performance On Saturday night at 7:30 pm, Munch Music presented a solo acoustic performance by Geoff Mason - a Tsawwassen resident, and South Delta Secondary School student. Geoff played a raw and edgy, alternative acoustic set, a mixture of original material and covers. Geoff has been playing guitar for 1 ½ years and claims influences such as The Pixies and Nirvana. He has been a singer and bassist in various bands for 3 years, is currently the front man for the local band, The Affiliates, and his goal is, "to take this as far as it goes and to have fun while I'm doing it". Taylor Van Zant (musical accompaniment for many of the songs performed that evening) is 16 years old and has been playing guitar for two and a half years - his goal: to be the next in a long line of famous Van Zant musicians. Coming Events: Friday, July 29th, 2005: The Eclipse 7:30pm Saturday July 30th, 2005: The Heck 7:30pm The Heck is: Bryan Steeksma - guitar / lead vocals, Parker Bossley - bass / vocals, and Amanda Hamilton - drums / vocals. The Heck is melodic hard rock, influenced by guitar greats Jimi Hendrix & Joe Satriani with three way vocal harmonies performed by three musicians with an average age of 17. The Heck is represented by Peter Karroll at TKO management and they have also signed a deal with Bif Naked's label: Her Royal Majesty Records. The band has already shot a video for their lead single "Insane" (directed by Stephano Barberis) and their debut album is due from HRM records via Warner later this summer. Plan to arrive early for the Munch Music performance, as we expect a full house.
