Gotham Rocks Star Logo

Gotham Rocks is New York City’s premier modern rock showcase series. In 2009 alone, Gotham Rocks put on over 40 live shows with over 100 bands, in front of more than 10,000 fans in and around NYC. We put some of the best new local, regional and national bands into packed houses in front of fans and industry alike. We give people who live and breathe rock music a chance to hang out, connect and build together– all while catching some of the best bands and blazing performances to be seen in NYC.

Our bands have played thousands of shows all over the northeast and mid-atlantic and everywhere we go, people complain about their local rock scenes the same way. ”Its dead”, “There are no good bands” or “This isnt the place for our type of music”. Well come to a showcase and you will see that the real rock scene is not only alive but thriving here in NYC, and that there is no better place to see it and be a part of it than Gotham Rocks.

Gotham Rocks partners with companies that feel the same way we do about supporting new and independent bands and music. Companies that work with us to award prizes, endorsement deals, marketing help and national exposure that our bands both deserve and want. In 2009 we have worked with Fox 5’s Fearless Music, Six Flags Great Adventure, Spector Guitars, DR Strings, Reverbnation.com, Musicsubmit.com, Soldouttour.com, Revolver Magazine and many others.

Shadows Lie

For music, videos and more pics go to: www.myspace.com/wheretheshadowslie – Rising from the NYC underground is SHADOWS LIE. Their music is a unique mix of Days of the New-style acoustic guitars, Portishead-like electronics and heavy-guitars reminiscent of Staind and Linkin Park built around a powerful singer whose vocal style ranges from Alanis Morissette, to Incubus. Their debut LP entitled “Echoes” is written, recorded, produced and performed by Kira and CT. The fusion of Kira’s lyrics and vocal melodies and CT’s guitar bass, programming and production work form the basis of a fresh sound that uniquely melds sonic strength with emotional truth and vulnerability.

Shadows Lie site among their diverse influences Incubus, Alice In Chains, Bjork the Crystal Method and Sevendust. The often times aggressive yet hauntingly beautiful music that results, invokes comparisons to fellow female fronted rock bands Evanescence and Lacuna Coil.

Live and for music to come, they are joined by Marco Britti on drums and Frank Grullon on guitars. “Echoes” is now available at iTunes and: CDFREEDOM.COM/SHADOWSLIE.

Karmacycle was busy in 2002-2003 creating their first recording effort, “Scared”. The next two years were spent promoting the album and honing their live show by playing Northeastern colleges, festivals and club venues. In 2005 they finished their EP titled “Save Yourself”.

They worked with Producer/Engineer Bill Klatt (Days of the New) and NYC producer Cary Tamura (Shadows Lie, Grayzone, Heidi Fly), this collaboration demonstrates a more mature sound; sonically, they found their niche. “Journals of a Jaded World” was not a departure from, but rather an evolution of their strengths. Guitarist Stephen Sannicandro knows the band’s forte: “You can expect certain elements from a Karmacycle track: strong melody, intricate drum phrasing, dynamic guitar arrangements and a grooving bass.” The new songs also emphasized singer Luke Ambrose’s vocal prowess and sentient lyrics. His voice often cries out in empathy and anger, making a strong emotional connection with fans.

Last August, they showcased with BMR; the evening’s Master of Ceremonies was K-ROC’s own Julie Slater. The band has been featured on websites such as Kings of A&R, Myspace, Friendster and Gargageband. They have played some of Manhattan’s most popular festivals: MEANY FEST, The Nokia Core Tour, and Emergenza.
