I ve never seen that before… this is the phrase echoing from
the mouths of new fans across the country following Nothing
More s first national tour in the spring of 2013
Nothing More doesn t take the stage they storm it. Alternating
between enormous rock anthems full of technical precision and
four man percussion assaults there is nothing pedestrian about
this band. Welded from discarded truck and motorcycle parts lead
singer Jonny Hawkins percussion platform serves as a de-facto
drum kit for Hawkins to accentuate and expertly pound rhythms in
tandem with drummer Paul OBrien. From the gut-wrenching yet
sonically distinct riffs of guitarist Mark Vollelunga to the
thundering and melodic bass of Daniel Oliver or Hawkins
commanding presence and charismatic delivery of sing-along lyrics
that are impossible to ignore; Nothing More is a fierce snarling
juggernaut that holds anyone within earshot or eyeshot hostage
until the very last note
Before we had even started touring we knew that we wanted to do
more than just play our songs. We want to create a show that no
one has ever seen and we want to really connect with people in a
unique way. Jonny Hawkins
Nothing More s new self-titled album (June 11 2013) is just the
thing to match the intensity and depth of the live show. The
seventeen songs are artistically landscaped and woven together
with vast dynamic musicality. Brutally honest in its lyrics and
poignant in its delivery Nothing More are as equally at home
graphically depicting scenes of infidelity in Sex and Lies as
they are in tackling society s most controversial issues in songs
like Christ Copyright
To think you know who goes to heaven — Is just one big
misconception — Like God hates fags and communism — Create fear
to feed the system Christ Copyright
As the listener churns through the tracks rather than being
transported with idealistic escapism they are transformed by
experiencing reality through the eyes of Nothing More. Even when
confronting the darkest of subjects as they do on Ballast
Nothing More never fails to remind us of the light within that
can never be extinguished
This is the time that we let it go — These are the words that
will take us home — Singing the song that s inside us all — If we
don t open our eyes we re walking blind -Ballast
From their humble beginnings in Texas Nothing More answered the
call to serve in the militia of independent touring artists
Knowing that it would take creativity brains and balls to make
their own destiny in this world they armed themselves with the
relentless intensity of their live show and with lyrics that
connect on the deepest level. They have mastered the DIY
philosophy in every imaginable way even converting their van to
run on recycled veggie oil. Now with two full length releases
and more than 500 shows under their belts and new fans being won
every day one thing that s certain for Nothing More is that Do
It Yourself doesn t mean doing it alone
