“Whiskey & Wine, Volume 2" Out March 17, 2015
& New US Tour Dates
NEW YORK, NY - Antigone Rising (AR), the New York
based all-female rock band, has announced
the release of "Whiskey & Wine - Volume 2” in
conjunction with new tour dates. Volume 2 will be available on iTunes and AR’s
website on March 17th.
The fab four comprised of Nini Camps (lead
singer), Dena Tauriello (drums) and founding sisters Kristen
Henderson (bass/vocals) and Cathy Henderson (guitar/vocals), are
showing no signs of slowing down!
Since releasing "Whiskey & Wine - Volume 1” on
iTunes and the band’s official website last year, the band has not only kept
busy with a non-stop touring schedule but as well with long studio hours to
complete the highly anticipated Volume Two of the double EP project.
"With W&W Vol. 2 the songs have gotten much more personal, the
productions a little more elaborate. These songs all have something to
say.” says Kristen Henderson. "It's important to
the band that we write songs that say something about who we are and what we
stand for. We are looking forward to touring and performing the songs for a
live audience, getting the crowd's reaction and visiting cities we haven't been
to in quite some time. It's going to be a great year for Antigone Rising.
The massive success of Volume One kept the band on the road for the most
part of 2014 . The first single “That was the Whiskey”, co-written with
Nashville songwriter Lori McKenna (Faith Hill, Little Big Town, Hunter
Hayes), premiered on CMT trending in the Top 10 and was
nominated in the "Country Song" Category at The 13th Annual
Independent Music Awards.
Antigone Rising have toured with such A-listers as Aerosmith and
The Rolling Stones; were appointed as cultural ambassadors by the United States
government to tour Israel and the Middle East; and have also played a part in
LGBTQ advocacy, making news when Kristin Ellis-Henderson appeared on the cover
of Time Magazine with
wife Sarah Kate Ellis-Henderson (president/CEO of GLAAD) for a feature on
marriage equality.
The girls have consistently been turning up everywhere from the
pages of Curve Magazine, Billboard, Out Magazine, Buzzfeed, AfterEllen and the
Huffington Post to appearances on The Today Show and The Tonight
Show, among others.
No one can deny the momentum behind Antigone Rising!
Known for their unique & electrifying live performances
featuring toe-tapping beats and powerful vocals, Antigone Rising is not just
good; they are insanely good and best experienced live. And whether
on stage or on an iPod, Antigone Rising continues to make a lot of noise!
