Sky Tells All

Sky Tells All Brings Pensacola Rock Scene to National Attention “I saw a desire and hunger in them that resembled mine when I first started boxing.” – Roy Jones Jr. Sky Tells All is Pensacola’s fastest rising band, recently signed to world-champion boxing legend Roy Jones Jr.’s bhe ROCK Records. This five-piece band is comprised of vocalist Josh, Blake doing double-duty on guitar and vocals, guitarist Brian, bassist Tyler, and drummer Alec. Each of the band members grew up in musical households, dreaming of the success they are now on the road to achieving. The bands’ early influences are diverse—citing artists like Jimi Hendrix, Atreyu, Death Cab for Cutie, The Police, and Blink 182—which easily explains the broad range of styles in Sky Tells All's powerful, modern sound. The same can be said for their writing process, which can begin with a simple melody or brainstorming session. This sense of variety and egalitarianism allows each band member to shine, as their process of writing and performing takes the best from each of them and combines it into the hard-driving rock that Sky Tells All consistently delivers to its loyal fans. The fans are a constant source of inspiration for Sky Tells All. “There is nothing better than being on stage and looking out into the crowd and seeing people sing the songs we have written, or seeing a kid at the mall wearing our T-shirt,” says Josh. Blake agrees that performing and helping people through music is “the most indescribably amazing feeling in the world.” Inspiration goes both ways, and Alec hopes to inspire listeners with the songs of Sky Tells All. Brian says, “I hope to have some songs that remain around forever” because “people need something real that they can relate to.” Josh echoes the band’s desire to touch people with their music: “I would love it if someone could listen to our record and really feel alive.” The band may soon be getting their wish. With their album set to release in Summer of 2009, Sky Tells All is going nationwide. And they have the support of more than just their fans: "If there is going to be a band to break out of this town, it’s gonna be Sky Tells All," says Mark the Shark, a DJ at Pensacola’s top rock station, TK101. Looks like Pensacola’s favorite sons are ready to take on the world! “The album is amazing and they poured their hearts into each and every song. To hear it is to see their souls.” – Natlyn Jones, bheROCK Records “I look forward to nothing but the best of success for the group in the near future." – Roy Jones Jr.
