‘100 ACTS OF SUPPORT–CONCERTS FOR TSUNAMI RELIEF’
Merging eclecticism with a pure pop sensibility to arrive at a disarmingly catchy sound, SUNDAYRUNNERS will release their self-titled, self-produced debut album March 22 on indie Machine Records.
The Chicago-based group–RANDY DIDERRICH (vocals, guitar), MASON BROWN (guitar, backing vocals), RICK DIDERRICH (bass), DAN REINHOLDT (drums) and AARON GRANT (keyboards, backing vocals)–will preview songs from their new CD this Thursday at the “100 Acts Of Support–Concerts for Tsunami Relief” sponsored by Virgin Megastore. Among the songs they’ll perform: the album’s haunting first single ”Memories Left At Sea,” which will be heard on the top-rated FOX TV show “The O.C.” February 17.
The tsunami benefit will begin at 5:00 PM at the Virgin Megastore in Chicago, IL (540 N. Michigan Avenue, 312-645-9300). The show is free, although, fans are encouraged to donate a minimum of $2.00 to aid the cause. SUNDAYRUNNERS will perform at 7:30PM.
SUNDAYRUNNERS was created by lead vocalist/guitarist RANDY DIDERRICH, formerly of Midwestern alternative bands Front Of Truck and Mas Optica. “I always put events from my life or how I’m affected by the events of the day into my songs,” DIDERRICH says, “but I try not to get too specific, so the songs can be interpreted differently by whoever is listening to them.”
The complete track listing for SUNDAYRUNNERS is as follows:
1. Elected
2. Memories Left At Sea
3. Everlasting Sun
4. Half My Height
5. Into Your Head
6. 1993
7. Finally
