   About Special D
In the modern day music industry with dime a dozen sound-a-likes and flash in the pan overnight sensations, there’s something to be said about an act with unceasing work ethic and commitment to artistic expansion instead of merely following the latest fad. For western Kentucky alt-rockers Special D, that latter formula can perhaps be chalked up to its Midwestern upbringing (no glitzy west coast plastic or east coast attitude here) or maybe it stems from members’ unwavering commitment to the creative process on its brand new CD Over and Over and the evolving live experience over the past two and a half years. But no matter what the reason, the rollicking foursome has cultivated a fervent fan base from its region and beyond, performing for countless thousands of fans on the main stage of such prominent festivals as AtlantaFest, Rock The Light and Unity Festival, plus sharing the bill with the likes of Toby Mac (Forefront/EMI), Skillet (Atlantic), Family Force 5 (Maverick), Jars of Clay (Nettwerk), Third Day (Essential), Jason Morant (Integrity/Epic) and DecembeRadio (Slanted), amongst many others. In concert or on Over an Over, the ambitious outfit is known for its slicing guitar sounds, soaring melodies and infectious party appeal, which merges the dynamic worlds of The Killers, Switchfoot and U2’s most recent era to empower, enchant and entrance with unending charisma every step of the way. Add in powerful production from Ainslie Grosser (known most recently for his work with Warner Brothers’ breakout band MuteMath), plus a lyrical dichotomy packed with reality-based reflections that provide hope in a seemingly dark world and Special D’s astute leaps forward are undeniable. But the band will let fans be the judge on an extensive 2008 tour in support of Over and Over, which thus far includes main stage slots at Rock The Light and Rock The Universe, amongst many others.

I just realized that your bass player name is Joel and he plays a Warwick bass. My bass player's name is Joel and he plays a 6 string Warwick bass cool. Keep up the awesome song writing and ministry. I look forward to seeing you guys live one day- all the way from San Francisco.
