Fueled By Ramen Potentially Filing For Bankruptcy!

Posted in News on June 22nd, 2009

According to an article on mi2n.com t(w)een favorite Fueled By Ramen maybe be filing for bankruptcy.

A source says the financial expenditure going into these bands has not so far proved profitable and that in an effort to keep the label above water, there is currently talk of dropping several bands or bankruptcy could be a conceivable outcome for Janick and Co.

Other labels have show intrests in some bands like This Providence and VersaEmerge. Tours are still scheduled for multiple bands through the summer, even though there hasn’t been any word yet about Hey Monday‘s speculated arena tour, The Academy Is will be performing at Six Flags stages across the country. It is possible that if the label doesn’t drop bands and/or increase sales soon, they may face bankruptcy this fall. Even though some other labels have shown interest in some of their bands, a lot of the bands on Fueled By Ramen could end up with out a label. So far Cobra Starship‘s new cd and The Cab‘s new EP (which you can stream now on purevolume.com), are still on track for release.

The Cab Gains a Tour, Loses a Member!

Posted in News on June 4th, 2009

Suitably, the Sin City boys are calling the tour The “What Happens In Vegas” Tour.

But, unfortunately, the line up of the band has undergone a sudden, but major, change.  Alex “Singer” DeLeon has posted to his blog to let fans know that guitarist Ian Crawford has left The Cab.

Ian’s rocking riffs and wild hair are definately something near and dear to The Cab’s fans, and he’ll definitely be missed.  However, DeLeon offers an explanation and some words to soothe the fans:

 He has made the decision to leave the band, but before you guys get mad or anything.. I need you to listen. Ian is one amazing dude. He is a class act, and obviously one of the most talented musicians down. I am proud to have gotten to stand next to him on a stage for as long as I did, and I wish him nothing but the best. This was not easy for us, or for Ian, but it needed to happen. I don’t have to say much about him, you know how Ian is. He is a free spirit, and was born in the wrong era. Ian should be playing next to Jimmy Page or John Lennon. His heart was simply not in this genre of music. He didn’t want to play pop or music suitable for the radio. I was heartbroken when I heard the news, but how can you be mad at someone for following their heart? How can you be mad at someone for following their own dream? We’re young, we’re still growing and figuring out who and what we want to be…Ian is no different. We wish him the best and always will.
