Pasco, WA | June 5, 2015 – Fans of Washington-based pop-alternative rock band Night Argent (for fans of X Ambassadors, Imagine Dragons) have been anticipating the band’s debut EP since they unveiled their single, “Nothing More Beautiful” in celebration of winning the Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands earlier this year. Today, Night Argent announced that they wrapped up in the studio and their debut self-titled EP will be available for free, exclusively to warped tour attendees this summer. Fans can get their copy by purchasing an item at Night Argent’s merch tent, or simply taking a selfie with the band and tagging them on social media! The EP includes the infectious single “Nothing More Beautiful” and four captivating new songs. In the meantime, fans unable to catch Night Argent on Warped Tour can anticipate the second single from the EP, “Comet (Light it Up)” [available for pre-order] and more before Night Argent EP is available digitally everywhere (date TBA). Night Argent has released this statement about the EP:
“We’ve spent the past year trying to find out who we were going to be as a band, and in the process of writing the songs for this EP we were able to find our own unique sound and voice as artists. The first single we released, ‘Nothing More Beautiful’, was the first song we wrote as a band where we felt “this is who we are”. Not who we wanted to be, or who we were trying to be, but who we were meant to be. Self producing this EP has allowed each of us to explore sounds and ideas that we love and bring them together to create something we feel speaks honestly to our fans. Finally being able to give this music to the people that have supported us over the past year, and those who will continue to support us, makes all the time and energy we’ve put into this project worth every second.” –Night Argent
Hailing from Pasco, WA, Night Argent consists of vocalist Chase Manhattan, guitarist Jeff Stachofsky, bassist Evan Taylor, drummer Zac Burrell, and Shane Santanna on keys. Together, the band’s infectious melodies and lively performance complete their impressive, breakthrough sound. Night Argent has opened up for Imagine Dragons, and played alongside Andy Grammar, Parachute, Andrew Belle, X Ambassadors and more. Their music has won Grand Prize at the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, and awards from the Billboard World Song Contest and ISC. Night Argent‘s music has been featured on MTV, Bravo, and Showtime and their cover of Imagine Dragon’s “Radioactive” had over 2 Million views on YouTube. This year, Night Argent won the Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands, played at SXSW, and will be making noise on select dates of Vans Warped Tour this summer (6/20-6/28, 8/1-8/8).
