Vagrant Records has signed Batavia, NY's Down To Earth Approach:

Vagrant Records is proud to announce to signing of Down To Earth Approach. Down To Earth Approach was formed by Jonathan Lullo, Ryan McClurg, Peter Metzler, and John McCampbell in early 2000 in Batavia, NY.

The band played steadily throughout New York, and began to build a loyal following. After a year of playing the Los Angeles and Orange County circuit (with Piebald, Saves The Day, Koufax, Planes Mistaken For Stars, Ultimate Fakebook, and Moneen) the band attracted the attention of Vagrant Records. Down To Earth Approach is currently finishing up writing, and preparing to record their first full-length record, to be released early 2004 on Vagrant Records.
