Official Press Release:
Taperjean Records is proud to welcome Perth’sCalerway to their ever growing roster which features some of
Australia’s most promising acts Fifty Sixx, Closure In Moscow and The
Mission In Motion, and a host of internationals.
After touring as
much of their hometown as possible, and more, CALERWAY embarked on
the Blood.Sweat.Years tour in mid-2008, deservingly scoring supports
alongside the likes of Something With Numbers and Angela’s Dish. It
wasn’t the heavyweights though, who took all the attention at the
shows, with Calerway walking away from 12 shows in 10 days with smiles on
their faces and a legion of new fans behind them.
Fronted by the
unique voice of Jaun Paul Rebola, CALERWAY’s music has been
compared to one of Perth’s greatest exports of recent years,
Gyroscope, as well as the more experienced tones of Jimmy Eat World and
Anberlin. “I think there are two types of bands,”explains Rebola. “There are the bands that follow what has been
done, do it very well and achieve success for the duration of a fad; and
there are bands that create their own thing. Our intention has always been
the latter.”
With this attitude, as well as some of
Australia’s freshest and finely-tuned music behind them in the form
of debut album Midnight Mercenaries which will be available
nationally Sat September 20th and features a bonus disc of videos, acoustic
tracks and more. To Coincide with the release Calerway will be hitting the
road nationally with The Matches
(USA).
