7th Sun Press Release
7th Sun has just finished recording their debut record, which has now been mastered, pressed, and ready for release. 7th Sun is a Los Angeles based rock group whose supernova musical roots run the gamut from classic rock, progressive rock, funk rock, alternative rock, and jam band. The high energy concept album is entitled From the Beginning, and the band's instrumental firepower, with lyrics that juxtapose both the uplifting idealism and the unknown darkness of modern-day culture, is driving this album into the subterranean rock market of the music industry.
JT Curtis, 22 years old, is the band's lead vocalist, lead guitarist, and chief songwriter. Armed with his Les Paul Gibson, Curtis' energetic guitar playing, singing, and burning desire to play music has turned heads from California to Austin, Texas to New York City. Curtis has also written production music for CBS television, and other music houses in LA and in NYC. Adam Kury plays bass guitar and his melodic influences and intense rhythms drive the band; he shares lead vocal duties. Kury also plays with the grunge band Candlebox. Stephen Quadros is the band's drummer extraordinaire; intensity, precision, and originality are just a few adjectives to describe his abilities. He also provides backup vocals. Quadros is known throughout the world as "The Fight Professor," a broadcaster for mixed martial art shows, including Showtime and EliteXC. Michael Russeck is the band's very talented young keyboardist, playing organ, piano and lending a hand with vocals. Russeck is also an accomplished painter and aspiring actor.
Steve Isreal, syndicated music critic and reporter for the New York Herald reviewed the band:
"7th Sun really rocks. The band is an original rock 'n' roll blues band featuring the powerful songwriting and musicianship of JT Cutis. Its music is rooted in the classic rock of honest artists like the Allman Brothers, Pink Floyd, and Derek and the Dominos, but with its spiraling guitars, driving rhythms, and gutsy vocals, the quintet led by JT Curtis soars into a new future of rock 'n' roll."
