Melinda Sutherland is a 17-year-old, grade 12 student from Ontario Canada. Her biggest dream is to meet Taylor Swift (I've seen this girl act out Taylors entire set from her last tour. Not even joking), and in doing so, help an extremely worthy charity. Melinda will donate $500.00 to the Canadian Cancer Society. She is up to $2000.00 with people agreeing to donate on her behalf if she meets Taylor. I know Melinda, I work with her. In the year that I've known her she's had to deal with a lot of unnecessary bumps in the road, especially for a seventeen year old.

Please take a minute to watch this video she made and "like" her Facebook page, facebook.com/melindatomeettaylor. Melinda is one of the most hard-working, respectful teenagers I have met in a long time and if anyone deserves to meet their idol, it's her. - Jen

With lots of new news to announce, Toadies have had a change of plans regarding their upcoming release PLAY.ROCK.MUSIC, originally slated as an EP release for May. The band will now release a full length with the same title on July 31st via Kirtland Records. The change stemmed from the vibe during the recording session says vocalist Vaden Todd Lewis: "The plan was just to record some demos with (producer) Frenchie Smith. It went so well we decided to compile the songs into an EP. But then we were having such a good time, we decided to keep the ball rolling and make a full-length record. A lot of this material was written on the fly in the studio. It was a very exciting and scary process."

To coincide with the release of PLAY.ROCK.MUSIC the band will be on a two month North American co-headline tour with former label cohorts Helmet (Dates TBA.) Toadies are presently out on the road with Social Distortion.

Congratulations to State Champs, the newest members of the Pure Noise Records family!

Pure Noise Records has announced the signing of Albany, NY pop punks State Champs. The band will release an EP late summer 2012 and will follow it up with a full length later this year.

Frontman Derek DiScanio says, "We couldn't be more excited to announce our signing with Pure Noise Records. We will be releasing a 7" EP this summer and following it up with a debut full length record later this year. Though it seems like a high pointed accomplishment, this is only the beginning of a long road ahead. We plan to continue having fun putting in the work we do to write songs and connect with those who care enough to listen and follow this path with us. Cheers to the next step. Thank you!"
