TRAPT
TO PERFORM FIRST SINGLE “STAND UP”
ON JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE
SEPTEMBER 9
TRAPT will debut their blazing first single “Stand Up” on Jimmy Kimmel Live’s outdoor concert stage Friday, September 9, just four days before the band’s new album SOMEONE IN CONTROL (Warner Bros.) hits the streets. TRAPT will launch a major Fall U.S tour with Blindside and Aphasia September 22 in Chico, CA.
SOMEONE IN CONTROL is the follow-up to TRAPT’s nearly two million-selling self-titled debut, which spawned the juggernaut #1 single “Headstrong” and earned the group two Billboard Awards for Best Modern Rock Track and Best Rock Track of 2003.
For SOMEONE IN CONTROL, TRAPT teamed with the esteemed Don Gilmore (Dashboard Confessional, Pearl Jam, Linkin Park) to co-produce. The first single “Stand Up”–impacting radio now–reveals the group’s strong sense of melody, soul-searching lyrics and ethereal guitar tones. Other standout tracks such as “Lost Realist” and “Influence” prove that TRAPT–“…not only evocative and versatile but also wise beyond their years” (Guitar One, May 2003)–are impressively evolving.
