Tooth & Nail Records is pleased to add My Epic to its global roster. The band — Aaron Stone [guitar, vocals], Tanner Morita [guitar], and Nate Washburn [guitar, bass] — was formerly signed to Facedown Records. They’ve shifted and grown, and their sound accounts for lots of lived experience.
The band will release its label debut (and fourth album overall) Loriella on June 28. It’s now available for pre-order.
“Loriella is a record about progression, joy, and the confidence that can only grow after the loss of innocence,” the band states.
“It’s the soundtrack to a hard-won optimism that comes from a commitment to living with ‘open hearts and calloused hands.’ Massive in dynamic, with intention in every detail, we’ve never worked harder and can’t wait to share these songs.”
The time to share these songs has arrived, as the band has dropped the video for the expansive, room-filling, and darkly atmospheric first single “Northstar.”
“We don’t keep the peace, we make it,'” the band says, referencing a key lyric in the track. “‘Northstar’ is a future forward production of a classic My Epic formula: Powerful melodic hooks, interspersed with moody dynamic shifts, all culminating in a massive ending. It’s a song about how making peace with the past is the most powerful way forward.”
