Check out some behind the scenes video from our video shoot for the new single, "Chariots" HERE, courtesy of our friends over at Northwest Motion Pictures. If you are in the market for video we highly recommend these guys. Total pros! Huge shout out to everyone over there as well as to our dear friends Frank & Kerrigan Kalange for the use of their home for an impromptu house set (and for the fish tacos)! Finally to everyone that came out and rocked with us, thanks for the support and for throwing down on an epic night with us! Stay tuned for the finished video!
New Single, "Typecast", debuts on 100.3 the X!
The first single from our new album, "Have Hope" made its' debut on 100.3 the X's Xclusive Sunday, May 14th! The track, "Typecast", combines the heaviness of our new material with the melody and breakdowns that our fans have grown to love. Huge shout out to Big J for rockin' the new single on his show. We're excited to finally be getting the new music out there and everyone at the X has been extremely supportive. Receiving radio play as an independent band is extremely helpful and we are fortunate to have a station like the X in the Treasure Valley. Thanks to Big J, Nic, Adam, Dan, and Randy for your support. You can call the X and request "Typecast" at (208) 287-1003 and listen live at www.xrock.com.

New Album - "Have Hope" Mixing Finished
Near the beginning of 2016, we began recording what would become our second full length album, "Have Hope". Today we are pleased to announce that we have completed the mixing on the record and have sent it to be mastered. With the help of our good friend and co-producer, Jason Ringlestetter, at Tonic Room Studios, we are ready to release the next step in the sonic evolution of Faded Leroy. "Have Hope" is 40 minutes of rollercoaster-type highs and lows, full of the dynamic range that Faded Leroy fans have come to love. There is enough crushing heaviness and dreamy atmospheres to satisfy even the pickiest of Leroids. The recording process has been an emotional journey for us and we are excited to share it with you. We will be announcing a release date as well as dates for an album release party soon. In the meantime, you can get your Leroy fix by catching us live on Sat. May 6, at the MayDay Micro Music Festival in Garden City, Idaho, where we will be raising funds for the Boise Hive and the Idaho Suicide Prevention Hotline.

Studio Update 2017 - Tracking Complete
It's a new year and we're preparing to release a new record! Last week we finished tracking on our upcoming sophomore album. This is by far our best work to date and represents a more collaborative song-writing effort. The new material is definitely heading in a heavier direction, but retains similar dynamics to our first record, with plenty of ups and downs throughout. For the new album we went back to work at the Tonic Room Studios with our good friend Jason Ringelstetter engineering and co-producing with us. We definitely wanted to up the ante and approached the production from that standpoint. When we started tracking last January, Jason and Beau took extra care to get a giant drum sound (the studio even bought a new preamp/compressor to use specifically for the drums on our record). Throughout the guitar sessions we tried several different combinations of amps, mics, and effects, even running a direct guitar through some plug-ins and reamping through P.A. speakers to get a particularly sweet nastiness. Over the last month we took the opportunity to add all sorts of ear candy including plenty of color guitar work, vocal harmonies, extra percussion, and even a little synth. We also had an opportunity to invite a few of our biggest fans to join us in the studio for a group vocal part (video to come).
We're on the home stretch now! With just a few minor postproduction tasks to finish, the album should hit mixing in the next week or two, while we move forward with artwork concepts, new design and new merch. We're excited to share the new recording with you and and will continue to update here and on social media. In the meantime, you can catch us performing the new songs at any of our upcoming shows!! Much love and thanks for the support!
