Southern Weather

Aaron Gillespie is a man obsessed. Whether he’s out in front of The Almost, his new, eagerly anticipated rock-based project, or behind the drum kit for Underoath, the Clearwater, Florida-bred songwriter/musician can’t help but throw himself into everything he does. With “Southern Weather,” The Almost lets Gillespie put a different, more melodic side of himself on display and his project’s debut already affirms he’s clearly worthy. Consider that The Almost is already confirmed for the upcoming 2007 Warped Tour and that “Southern Weather” marks the first time Tooth & Nail has partnered up with a major label (Virgin Records) for a joint release and there’s little denying that Gillespie is about to take the ride of his life. Look for “Southern Weather” to drop in stores on April 3rd on Tooth & Nail/Virgin Records.
