LOS ANGELES, CA– Rising Nashville-based rock band Afterlife Parade releases their new album, Rebirth, on August 8th, 2011. Following their January release, Death (produced by Jeremy McCoy of The Fray), Afterlife Parade returns with the appropriately titled second album, Rebirth.

Afterlife Parade features singer/songwriter Quinn Erwin on his new musical journey. After 12 years as a solo artist, Erwin’s passion for music had given him new direction and perspective in life. “I couldn’t recall if I had ever heard any songs about death that were triumphant and celebratory,” Quinn explains. With a vision in mind, his verses turned into lyrics and songs, which led to the birth of a new band, Afterlife Parade.

Rebirth is the second of a two-part concept album. “Death, as a project, is deep, dark and atmospheric,” Erwin says. “Rebirth is the exact opposite – it’s upbeat, percussive and a bit electronic.” The concept was to first release an EP about death as no one had seen it before; a celebration of life, and then release a second album about being reborn, hence the name Afterlife Parade. Rebirthwas produced by the production team I Am the Actor (Jason Morant, Jeremy Lutito of Leagues, and Dan Brigham of Canon Blue). The first single off the album is entitled,“Black Woods, White Beach.“

* Afterlife Parade’s two-part concept albums, Death and Rebirth are now available on iTunes. Visit the band on Facebook.
