“Pop-punk’s punchiest young band offers a hot new take on the classic rock and roll theme of young hearts burning bright.” – NPR
Sleeping With Sirens released Live and Unplugged, an album that features their songs performed acoustically, today via Epitaph. The songs were recorded live during the band’s intimate, 12-city “We Like it Loud Quiet” tour in the summer of 2015. On the tour, Sleeping With Sirens performed acoustic versions of songs from their latest album Madness, fan favorites from their catalog, and a handful of special cover songs (Sublime’s “Santeria” and Goo Goo Dolls’s “Iris”) in small rooms for die-hard fans. Live and Unplugged is a documentation of the experience for all to enjoy.
Front man Kellin Quinn explains:
“Our live dynamic is very different (in a good way) compared to our studio sound. We wanted to give our fans a live experience that they could relive at home over and over! Very proud of this album.”
Since their formation in 2009, Sleeping With Sirens – Kellin Quinn (front man), Jack Fowler (guitar), Nick Martin (guitar), Justin Hills (bass), and Gabe Barham (drums) – have been sharing authentic tales of childhood woes, tender love letters, and encouragements to seize the day and triumph over heartache and haters with their diverse and devoted audience. Fans show up in droves, selling out nearly every one of the band’s shows since 2012. With album sales, streams and YouTube views well into the millions, 9 million+ social media followers, Sleeping With Sirens is ready to take on the world, or rather, take the world along with them.
Sleeping With Sirens is nominated in several Alternative Press Music Award categories, including: Kellin Quinn for Best Vocalist, Jack Fowler for Best Guitarist, Madness for Album of the Year, and Artist of the Year.
