Hawthorne Heights write music and lyrics that intimately touch many different types of people. They perform with a down-home honesty that is so lacking in our cutthroat society. [They're] a band that you can call your own. |
It is not about where you start. It is about where you finish. |
They are a great band and even greater people. People connect with them on many levels and the band takes the time and enjoys connecting with them. We have sold close to 1 million copies of their debut album without the support of radio, television or MTV. It has happened because real people care about a real band. |
Whatever we come out of the gate with will be fine. This is not a sprint. This is a marathon. The fact of the matter is we have to roll up our sleeves and work harder than we have the last 20 months getting the first [Hawthorne Heights] album to go platinum. The larger media and broadcast outlets are not independent-friendly. |
