Attica! Attica! (ex-marathon) and The New Dress sign to Red Leader

Team Red Leader has added two new bands to their family to end the year, Attica! Attica! and the New Dress.

Attica! Attica! (A!A!) is former Marathon and De La Hoya frontman Aaron's new project. The label describes the new project's influences as "punk and hardcore, to country, folk, pop and classical" and that the record "is as much grounded in musical theater as it is in socially aware music." The A!A! debut will be available early next year and you can hear selections from it at either the band's MySpace or PureVolume pages.

The New Dress features dueling "boy/girl" vocals and promises to "break down all that can be amazing about punk rock" in their "proletariat love songs." The New Dress's debut LP is also expected in early 2007 and you can find previews at their MySpace or PureVolume pages.
