 STARS GO DIM:
BRINGING BACK THE LOVE
Stars Go Dim is a great new group that consists of Joey Avalos and Chris Cleveland. Their music is cutting edge, romantic and alive. In some ways the music is aggressive and something that could easily be played on Smallville or One Tree Hill.
Joey and Chris not only have an intentional sound, their album art is gorgeous yet simplistic at the same time. The look will attract the eyes and the sound will capture the heart of faithful listeners.
If you’re like me, you probably appreciate a good love song well, SGD’s Come Around is just one of three of their perfect love songs. Check out their first three releases only available digitally through http://www.amazon.com, key word MP3 Downloads – Stars Go Dim. iTunes or visit www.starsgodim.com for ringtones and more.
