Today Taco Bell® announced 100 bands that made the 2009 Feed the Beat™ lineup, which included Solid State Records’ Haste the Day. Celebrating its fourth year, Feed the Beat provides free food and marketing support to America’s up-and-coming rock acts.
This year, in addition to Haste the Day, touring bands from across the nation, including The All-American Rejects, Boys Like Girls, Forever The Sickest Kids, We The Kings, Atreyu, Owl City and more, will receive $500 in Taco Bell Bucks for free Fourthmeal, the late night meal between dinner and breakfast. More than just free food, bands also receive important marketing support for their music. Haste the Day is giving back to their community by donating a portion of their Taco Bell Bucks to a local Indiana non-profit, Wheeler Mission Ministries. For more information on this mission, visit their site http://www.wmm.org/.
With their Taco Bell® Bucks in hand, Haste the Day is hitting the road starting on Friday with the Napalm & Noise Tour beginning in Illinois (dates/markets below) with All That Remains, The Devil Wars Prada and Story of the Year. Haste the Day is available for interviews and tour reviews are available upon request and approval. Contact: Lori Mahon for media inquires. For more information and tour locations visit the band’s MySpace (www.myspace.com/hastetheday) and Twitter: @hastetheday.
