| OUTFORMATION BIOGRAPHY
Outformation entered the recording studio in 2007 to record their second album, Traveler's Rest. For Outformation, recording Traveler's Rest was a collective song writing process among band members and other musical influences. The title track, "Traveler's Rest" was a collaboration between Widespread Panic and Outformation. In addition, Mickey Raphael, from Willie Nelson's Family Band, plays harmonica on the track "Winds". "We're really excited to have him on the album, his tone is unbelievable" said Sam Holt. The album is composed of songs old and new. For instance, the song "Anymore" had never been played live, "Carnac" had only been played once, and "Toy's Song" had been around since the start of the band. Outformation appeared at Bonnaroo, SXSW, Hi Sierra Music Festival, 10K Lakes, Magnoliafest, and Wakarusa. In 2007 following the release of Traveler's Rest, Outformation performed with Widespread Panic, Shooter Jennings, and Umphrey's McGee. Outformation finds themselves more mature and focused on their music. With a growing national fan base and consistent touring schedule, Outformation is ready to explore a new and exciting musical territory, which they find in Traveler's Rest. Aaron Kayce on Outformation In response to Outformation’s auspicious entrance to the music world, the rising stars were named “Best New Band” of 2005 Honest Tune Magazine’s reader’s poll, and Tennessee Before Daylight was nominated for “Best Album” by the editorial staff of the same publication. When talking to producer/keyboardist Jojo Hermann, about Outformation he is quick to reference the dynamic six-string skills of Sam Holt. “Sam's got that hypnotic thing,” says Hermann. “He kinda gets into that trance when he plays, and all my favorite guitar players have that ability to somewhat become hypnotized themselves. Mikey [Houser] and Junior Kimbrough - there was a hypnotic thing, and I think Sam has that. It's a big part of what drew me to him." Regardless of whether Holt developed his confident, “hypnotic” style by touring with Outformation, learning at the foot of Michael Houser, playing numerous times with Widespread Panic, or by simply tapping into the music in his head, it’s a driving factor to the Outformation sound. Having already played for packed stadiums with tens of thousands of screaming fans, Holt is ready to lead Outformation to the masses. Listening to Holt speak of the future, you can hear the excitement in his voice. “I definitely feel it… I see something; I’m on my tiptoes looking at something, can’t quite make it out, but something’s out there.” Although Holt may not quite be able to see it, what he’s looking at is the sound of Outformation making it. Outformation is a band on the brink of something big. -Aaron Kayce For More Details: www.foryouroutformation.com MANAGEMENT: Dottore Dubois Artist Management Phone - 615-469-7879 Email: Brandon Mauldin BOOKING: Progressive Global Agency Email: Hunter Williams PUBLICITY: Home Team Publicity Phone: 404.906.8936 Email: Andrea Craven Outformation on You Tube Outformation on Facebook Outformation on iLike Outformation on Last FM Listen to Live OUTFORMATION here SETLIST, RECORDING, and PHOTOS of OUTFORMATION SIGN UP FOR THE MAILING LIST & STREET TEAM!
