| Crossfade Debut Album Continues To Climb To Platinum Sales Status As Crossfade's watershed self-titled debut album quickly approaches the RIAA platinum mark, Columbia Records is celebrating the band's third hit at radio with the new single and video "Colors." By far, one of the biggest artist development successes of 2004 and 2005, Crossfade, has performed on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and "Late Night with Conan O'Brien." The band will next appear and perform on CBS' "Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" on Friday, July 22. er "Cold," the first single from Crossfade, made music history as radio's #1 Most Played Rock Song of 2004. The track spent a record-breaking 65 weeks on the Active Rock chart while spending more than a record 45 weeks on the Modern Rock chart. Both "Cold" and its follow-up single, "So Far Away," were Top 10 records at Active Rock Radio. With its immensely catchy chorus, "Cold" has now crossed over to Top 40 radio with a special acoustic version (available on the recently released DualDisc edition of the album) as well as mash-up versions featuring Club Nouveau's early 90's hit "Why You Treat Me So Bad" and indie socialite rapper Ms 86. Originally released on April 13, 2004, Crossfade was a #1 Heatseekers before entering the Billboard 200 bestselling albums chart in July of that year and began its steady climb up the chart. The album continues to sell upwards of 15,000 copies per week. The album was written, recorded & self-produced by Crossfade, with post-production by Randy Straub (U2, P.O.D., Metallica) and recorded at the band's garage studio in Columbia, South Carolina. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Jazz News :: home page |
