MORROW’S MEMORY: The band started as a creative rock project between long time high school friends and former band mates, Zach Novak (Drums) and Joe Wolford (Lead Guitar). Additional members were added in the following order: Tony Fitchett (Lead Vocals), Brian Sasanas (Vocals and Guitar), Scott Sarnia (Bass) and Mike Fritz (Keyboard).
HOW DID THE NAME “MORROW’S MEMORY” COME ABOUT.
MORROW’S MEMORY: We went through a very tedious and vigorous process of compiling band names between the six of us and some of our friends, which left us with over two-hundred names to work with! It was important that we came to an agreement on something that we all liked. We narrowed it down further and further and ended up with “Morrow’s Memory”. That particular name was one of Joe’s ideas. It stemmed from the concept that everything in life becomes a memory of tomorrow.
IS AN EP OR FULL LENGTH IN THE WORKS AT THIS TIME? IF SO, WHEN WILL IT RELEASE?
MORROW’S MEMORY: Currently we have written ten songs and recorded six of them at Minx Recording Studio (Farmington Hills, MI). We will most likely skip doing an EP and go straight to releasing a full length album. We plan to record the remaining songs in a few different sessions throughout the year and hopefullyrelease the album this year (2011).
WHO PRODUCES YOUR BAND’S MUSIC?
MORROW’S MEMORY: We write our music using a collaborative approach in which we all have a say. Members will write individual parts or songs and present them to the band. We then decide (as a band) whether or not we want to move forward with each particular part or song. After that, there is often some fine-tuning involved before it fully exemplifies the “Morrow’s Memory sound”. We don’t have an outside producer, but we do respect the opinion of whoever is recording us, as long as our tastes align.
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR MUSIC TO THOSE WHO HAVEN’T HEARD IT YET?
MORROW’S MEMORY: Sophisticated rock accented with strong musicianship and melodic vocals. Our professionalism and need for perfection shows in our songs. The music we write is something that we want to really hold up against the test of time and hit home with a lot of people. It needs to feel good, be empowering and sometimes even “hurt so good”.
WHAT IS A LIVE MORROW’S MEMORY SHOW LIKE?
MORROW’S MEMORY: Fog machines, sounds you wanna turn up so loud it blows out your windows, custom lights, and people moving to our music and singing along. Once you have heard people cheering for “one more song”, there really is no going back…ever. It’s addicting to us! Our first show opening for a national act (Cold) will be on April 2nd at Harpo’s and it’s going to be intense! We will also have a CD release party sometime in June. Watch www.MorrowsMemory.com or Facebook.com/MorrowsMemory for details.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS AS FAR AS RADIO PLAY?
MORROW’S MEMORY: We are currently receiving some airplay from 89X (88.7 FM) and have also been featured on some internet-based stations. We plan to work toward getting our music out to a mass amount of college stations, internet stations and other major stations.
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU’D LIKE TO ADD?
MORROW’S MEMORY: We’d like to say thanks to Detroit Live Magazine for this awesome opportunity, but more importantly we’d like to thank each and every single one of our fans for coming to our shows and being so supportive and patient while we record this first CD. It’s only with their help that we have become as popular as we are now. You guys rock! Keep spreading the word!
Additionally, we wanted to say that we are truly in this for all of the right reasons. It’s because we love the music and want to share our passion. We want people to listen to the meanings in our songs and walk away feeling that natural high you get from a good tune. None of us could ask to write and perform with a better group of guys!
