Chart Topping Band Prepares For September 28th Release and Extensive U.S. Tour SANTA MONICA, Calif., June 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Platinum-selling hit-makers the Gin Blossoms have signed with 429 Records and are preparing for both the release of their highly anticipated new album, "NO CHOCOLATE CAKE" and an extensive U.S. tour. With total worldwide album sales topping 30 million units powered by their indelibly melodic, Grammy-nominated Top Ten singles, Gin Blossoms—Robin Wilson, Jesse Valenzuela, Scott Johnson and Bill Leen, are back and in peak form! The eleven new tracks were written, produced and performed by the band with the help of John Richardson (drums) and Danny Wilde on keyboards and additional production (of The Rembrandts). The first single, "Miss Disarray," will be promoted at Hot Adult Contemporary radio outlets (add date 8/2). "NO CHOCOLATE CAKE" is set for release in North America on September 28th on 429 Records. Four years after the critically acclaimed "Major Lodge Victory," Gin Blossoms have put together a seamless musical confection. The band continues to benefit from an innate chemistry and inspiration—a dynamic that helped catapult songs such as "Hey Jealousy," "Found Out About You," "Till I Hear From You" and "Follow You Down" into the collective musical consciousness and helped define an era as well as selling 30 million records worldwide. Says Wilson, "There's just something about the way we play and sound together. It's those songs and the sound we make that add up to something indefinable." "NO CHOCOLATE CAKE" track listing: Gin Blossoms are managed by Doug Merrick at Merrick Music Group. For more information visit: www.429records.com 29 Records is a unit of the Savoy Label Group (SLG). SLG is the North American unit of Columbia Music Entertainment (formerly Nippon Columbia) the oldest music company in Japan. The Savoy Label Group has evolved into a leading independent company consistently outperforming competitors in key music categories as monitored by Billboard Magazine. SLG is led by Steve Vining.

The tattoo is a Phoenix, as in a mythical bird of fire. My tattoo artist was the extremely cool and talented Dan Smith. The tattoo is a custom design by Mitch O'Connell, famed lowbrow and tattoo flash artist. It was a great experience to meet and talk with a talent like Dan. The producers and staff were all very cool professionals. And it was an extra thrill to collaborate with Mitch O'Connell. A second version of the design featuring a logo for the Love Hope Strength Foundation will be available as a t-shirt when the show airs, with proceeds benefiting the Love Hope Strength Foundation. Click here to view a hi-res picture of the tattoo. Here is the blog about my tattoo by artist Mitch O'Connell." Stay tuned for the airdate of Robin's episode! 4/10/2010 .

A Message From RobinHello to all friends of GBs from Robin Wilson. I’m involved in something extraordinary. In September I am climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa with LOVEHOPESTRENGTH.ORG, a cancer charity founded by Mike Peters of The Alarm. We are raising money for the Cancer Center in Nairobi, Africa and we need your help. Mike Peters and myself join Slim Jim Phantom of Stray Cats, Glenn Tillbrook of Squeeze, Cy Curnin of The Fixx and others to face the challenge of climbing to 19,300ft. You can get involved by making a donation or purchasing a prayer flag, which will be inscribed with the name of a loved one and then I will personally place it atop Mt. Kilimanjaro. Obviously this is among the biggest physical and personal challenges I will face in my lifetime. I am fortunate to have this opportunity and take none of it for granted. Frankly, I’m pretty scared. Please join me and show support by visiting LOVEHOPESTRENGTH.ORG. Sincere thanks, Robin Wilson 5/27/2009 . Gin Blossoms Voted "Best Local Band" on azcentral.comClick here to read more.
