       ROCKWiRED RADiO PROFiLES PRESENTS:
THE DELECTABLE POP SENSiBiLiTY OF THE DAYDREAMERS AND THEiR NEW EP 'WiTH YOUR LOVE'  JUNE
20, 2012 -
For
multiple generations of music fans, the word “Woodstock” may
still conjure up dreamy nostalgia for a dynamic musical era gone by,
but at the heart of the mythology created over the past 43 years is a
small town in New York where local bands cultivate the same dreams as
everywhere else. For twin brothers AARON (lead guitar) and WYATT MONES
(frontman, rhythm guitar) and bassist BEN CHROBOT—the core of
emerging indie pop-rock band THE DAYDREAMERS--it’s a home base that
is quickly becoming too small for their larger ambitions. Following
up the 2008 EP SOMEDAY,
EVERYDAY they released
as THE DEFENDERS while still in high school, the band is putting
Woodstock back on the map in an exciting new way with the release of WITH YOUR
LOVE,
their debut EP as THE DAYDREAMERS.Their
seamless hypnotic vibe and cool harmonies on tracks like the beachy,
grunge-pop influenced “ANTARCTICA” are testament to a chemistry
that harkens back to elementary and middle school, where the MONES
brothers, CHROBOT and keyboardist TIM POLL first met. Though they
only started playing live as The Daydreamers a year ago, AARON and
WYATT—who are now 20 -- have been playing music together since the
7th
grade. They
created a lot of buzz during their high school days as THE DEFENDERS,
releasing the EP and making it to the final round of the 2009 Break
Contest, a battle of the bands competition for a spot on the
Bamboozle Festival’s main stage at the Meadowlands Complex in New
Jersey. They’ve also played venues ranging from the famed Stone
Pony in Asbury Park and The Chance in Poughkeepsie to The Knitting
Factory and CBGBs in New York – and in 2009 were top ten finalists
for the MTV Video Music Awards’ Best Breakout contest.

LUSH holds a BA in Creative Writing from the UNIVERSITY OF
NEW MEXICO. He established ROCKWIRED on New Years of 2004 and hasn't
looked back
since. He is currently the host of all of ROCKWIRED.COM's programming
which includes such shows as ROCKWIRED RADIO PROFILES and ROCKWIRED
FREE FORM RADIO. As
program producer for ROCKWiRED.COM, LUSH is hands-on when it
comes to
interviewing and building a lasting rapport with the artists that come
ROCKWiRED's
way. As a youngster, BRIAN LUSH had no idea what kind of seed was being
planted
by reading magazines such as HIT PARADE, HIGH TIMES, SPIN, REQUEST
(remember
that one?) and even ROLLING STONE. "Those were the days before the
internet and being a rock journalist
looked
like the coolest job imaginable." says LUSH "But reading these
magazines had me
imagining that one day I'd be the artist giving all of the clever
answers to
some poor guy with a tape recorder. Well, life has a way of surprising
you.
Now, I'm the poor guy with the tape recorder and asking all of the
questions."CONTACT
