CANOBLISS is a San Diego, CA based modern hard rock/metal band that breaks boundaries. Consisting of five diverse members with experiences, backgrounds, and influences bridging over multiple generational and style gaps, the result is a band that has been declared "One of the most unique independent metal bands making music today." -- Derric Miller (HardRockHaven.net), as well as "one of the best bands to come out of the US in the past few years." -- Steve Green (Live4Metal.com).
The band was originally founded in 1997 by long-term friends Samson Pedroza and Chenzo Vidalez. After releasing the album Wicked Necessary in 1998, there were years of turbulent times and multiple lineup changes until the band added brothers Mike and Jon Russo in early 2004. The band released their second album Demon Angel later that year. Unsatisfied with their vocalist at the time, Canobliss began looking for a new front-man in early 2005. After an exhaustive search and hundreds of auditions from hopefuls all over the world, Canobliss added Johan Maldonado in the summer of 2006. His talent, versatility and range as a vocalist complimented Canobliss’ style and sound perfectly.
With their newly found line-up, Canobliss independently released their full-length album Liberation of Dissonance on July 21, 2007. Beginning in March '08 Canobliss launched a successful national college radio campaign to promote L.O.D., and hit the number 1 slot at KSLU-1 (St. Louis, MO) and KSAU (Nacogdoches, TX) in addition to breaking the top 10 at several others. L.O.D. was also nominated for the San Diego Music Awards Best Hard Rock Album 2008!
Canobliss then recorded a 7-song EP that was released on July 19, 2008. The EP, entitled Psychothermia, was the sophomore release for the existing lineup and the band feels that it is their strongest release to date. The title track “Psychothermia” was one of 12 to make it onto the Rock 105.3 Loud & Local compilation CD, narrowed down from a field of 135! Canobliss is proud to have completely self-produced their last three albums from start to finish including all tracking, editing, mixing as well as layout and assembling of the artwork. Already, Canobliss has begun writing for a new album with a release scheduled for spring 2010.
Despite many excellent reviews of their albums, it is their high energy live show that fans say keep them coming back for more. In order to spread their sound, Canobliss completed a very successful Southwest USA tour in spring ’09 along with a Northwest USA tour in the summer of ’09. Because of the excellent fan response, they headed out on a return trip across the Southwest USA on their “Desert Debacle” tour in October '09 which ended up surpassing the spring tour in every way. Proof of Canobliss' growing prescence across the Southwest was shown as the band obtained distribution at Zia Records stores in Phoenix, Tucson, & Las Vegas, along with developing connections with several southwest Hot Topic stores.
Over the past few years Canobliss has exhaustively spread their name and music by touring, playing hundreds of live shows, selling thousands of albums, handing out over seven thousand free demos, tagging up countless stickers, developing a strong online presence, receiving radio airplay across the country and creating a full line of merchandise. By exercising extensive promotion and the ability to market themselves, Canobliss has developed a broad and continuously growing fan base without compromising their musical integrity.
PRESS::: Canobliss has been played on over 160 radio stations and podcasts across the country. Canobliss has also enjoyed many radio plays, interviews and appearances on San Diego's Rock 105.3 Loud & Local Show in addition to TV appearances on KOCT in Oceanside, CA and the cable show Music Choice Metal. Canobliss songs have been featured on several extreme sports DVDs including Thunderstruck 8, winner of the 2009 “Xtremey” for Best Snowmobile Film. Their albums have received excellent reviews by several dozen webzines based across the world.
PERFORMANCES::: Canobliss has three tours and hundreds of shows under their belts at a variety of Western USA clubs including but not limited to House of Blues (San Diego), Six Flags Magic Mountain (Valencia), Six Flags Discovery Kingdom (Vallejo), Six Flags Over Texas (Arlington), Whisky A Go Go (Hollywood), The Knitting Factory (Hollywood), Blake’s On Telegraph (Berkeley), The Blvd (Spokane), The Grizzly Rose (Boise), The Rock (Tucson), The Sets (Phoenix), Cheyenne Saloon (Las Vegas), Burt's Tiki Lounge (Albuquerque), & Headhunters (Austin) with excellent response to their energetic live shows.
