The Speaks

stereotypes, making believers out of naysayers, destroying everything in their

path, and acquiring legions of new fans every single step along the way. From

winning every major music competition they’ve entered, to rocking crowds of

25,000+ people, to gaining major support from DC101 (one of the most influential

radio stations in the country) -- The Speaks are easily shaping up to be one of the

most exciting, talked about rock bands to hit the music scene in years.

If you had to try and characterize these “rockstars-in-training”

take the explosive live stage show of Velvet Revolver, add the eternal

rock/anthemic appeal of Pearl Jam, and throw in the raw & emotional lyrical

intensity of the Foo Fighters for good measure. In a changing new world where

music seems to be erasing any existing racial boundaries, The Speaks -- whose

members are all American-born, but of Asian heritage“ are poised to further prove

that music is, indeed, the one true universal language.

Much like Jimi Hendrix, Living Color, Sevendust and Hootie and the Blowfish

(c’mon admit it, when you first heard their music, you thought Hootie was a

white dude!) have all changed the face of rock -- and Eminem and The Beastie

Boys have changed the face of rap -- The Speaks are opening people’s minds and

broaden peoples’ horizons with their driving, emotion-filled music in a unique,

unprecedented package. Find out why industry people and fans alike are saying

they are the next stage in musical evolution!

The Speaks’ amazing live performances and infectious sound have created a loyal

and dedicated following within the local, national, and international music scene

with fans all across the globe, the numbers are growing fast in the tens of

thousands. Over the past 6 years, they have outlasted numerous growing pains

to hone their craft and establish their current line-up. This knack for hard work

has paid off for the band in January 2005, The Speaks acquired an international

distribution deal overseas with Warner Music (Asia), with re-release of their

independently-produced album “Life’s a Joke” in April 2005. Constant radio airplay,

supported by two popular musicvideos in regular rotation on MTV Asia and MYX

Music Channel, have established the band as one of the breakthrough acts of this

year and it’s only a matter of time before record labels, and the rest of the world,

takes notice.
