Source: Detroit Free PressSept.迷你倉 19--It isn't easy getting noticed in the music industry. Sometimes it's just about being in the right place, at the right time, with the right product.That's the case with Detroit rockers Pistol Day Parade. Big-name producers, management, agents, mainstream radio airplay and more are putting the group on track to be the next breakout band from the local scene.But before it blows out of here, the group will celebrate its first full-length release with parties Friday at Diesel Concert Lounge in Chesterfield Township and Saturday at the All Around in Taylor.The band formed in 2009 and soon released its debut EP, "She Wants More," recorded at the Lava Room in Cleveland by Mike Brown (Velvet Revolver, Breaking Benjamin). Local rock station WRIF-FM (101.1) began spinning the band's first single, "Rockstar's Girlfriend," a hook-laden track that's easily compatible with the station's format."That's basically what got everything started," says bassist Jason Lollio. "We recorded the EP in Cleveland and we brought it back home, and next thing you know, Mark Pennington was playing it on WRIF. That song paved the way for where we're at right now."The song also got the attention of noted metro Detroit engineer-producer Tim Patalan, and the group began recording its first full-length at the Loft Studios in Saline with Patalan at the helm. "He really believed in the band," says Lollio. "We literally recorded three different versions of every song to try and figure out the best version of each song. It's catchy guitar rock. That's one thing about working with Tim Patalan: He's known for working with guitar players and pulling out the best in them."From there, the group worked with another noted metro Detroit engineer-producer, Chuck Alkazian, on a remix of the album to cater specifically to radio. The result is a blistering 12-track project titled "Burn," released last week via local label Goomba Records. "It's hooky rock 'n' roll about relationships, which everyone can adapt to," says Lollio.Last month, the band debuted "Not Today," the first single from the new album, which is also being spun on WRIF. The video can be seen by clicking here.The band -- which also features vocalist Dave Fuller, guitarists Rob Banks and Steve (Guido) Johnson and drummer Jason Hartless -- i儲存倉 managed by Rick Smith and Dana Haddad at Wild Justice, joining a roster that includes acts such as Volbeat, Saving Abel and Eye Empire.In October the group will head to Las Vegas where it will showcase at the annual rock radio conference called Radio Contraband. "We could pick up a lot of stations with just this one gig," says Lollio. "That could make or break this band if we could pick up a few more markets."Opening Friday's show are Through Our Eyes, Seven Ways West and Psycho Circle. Doors at 8 p.m. for all ages.
