Rise NYC is new band that mixes the big melodies of the new wave of rock and the buzz of electronics creating a sound that is uniquely their own. Gigolo Records head supremo, DJ Hell, includes one of their songs on his collection, Gigolo Records Compilation 8, describes them as "sinister and sweet; The future of rock". Larry Tee includes one of their songs on his compilation "Gentle Electric" and describes them as "one of the most compelling new bands I've seen in NYC in years."AND with a buzz growing on both sides of the Atlantic, this new group is preparing a full-length album that shows the many facets of their individual unique artistic visions. Rise NYC is a mixed gender affair that features Shelly on hookey bass + dramatic vocals 'dark and sweet' and Mr. underground & Brooklyn ring-master/ Pat Field's 'stylist to the stars' Die J! Mars + programming & guitar. All Growing in the East Village/Williamsburg music scene that has spawned so many gold and platinum artists of late in their realm (think Scissor Sisters, Interpol, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio, LCD Soundsystem, etc.) RISE NYC has been inspired by a variety of great artists although it does not sound like anything else, it's classic. Working alongside legendary music heavyweights like producer Jim Sclavunos of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Kid Congo Powers (Nick Cave, The Cramps, and The Gun Club), Supa DJ Dmitri formerly of Deee-Lite, and Genesis P-Orridge of Throbbing Gristle, It is sure to blow up soon! They have put together a 10 song album, Mise en Scène, that puts the sound of NYC 2007 into music and are currently recording a follow-up e.p. with legendary producer, Freddy Bastone (Queen, Malcolm McClaren, Ciara). Their live show is a multi-media experience. Show includes acting, dance, artist installations, theatre, performance art, fashion and video--projections. Inventive lighting brings it all together, adding a mood that matches their mysterious sound.
