Artist of the Week: Ace Enders & A Million Different People

Here's the deal, I know it seems like I just had this band as my Artist of the Week, but it's actually been almost 2 months. Either way, I just had to have them on again cause they just put out a new album. It's practically the first rule in the book. The unwritten book of Artist of the Week that is. Not to be confused with the unwritten book of the road. But enough about that, lets get to know the band a little better.
See, although this band is relatively new, two of the guys behind it have been around a bit longer. It all started back in 2001 when Arthur "Ace" Enders (Vocals, Guitar) and Sergio Anello (Bass) formed a band called The Early November along with two other friends. The band had some moderate success releasing two albums and three EPs. Then in March of 2007, the band posted on their website that they "will be taking an indefinite hiatus". That same year, Enders took out a loan to build a music studio, and after only three weeks of construction, Pink Space Recording was born. After the studio's completion, Enders didn't waste any time spending two straight days making demos that would later be named "From a Daze" and "Emergency". He soon signed on with manager Lucas Keller to work on his new project. Then on June 13, 2008, Enders released an 8 track album which was, and still is, free to download on the Fuse.tv website titled The Secret Wars. Since it wasn't a full album release, it didn't really have any singles or videos. But one song on the album that I found myself really enjoying was Bring Back Love (2020). A couple of months ago, front man Ace Enders had an idea. He thought that in times like these, sometimes people need something to hold on to. Even if that something is as simple as a song. So with the help of some friends; Mark Hoppus (Blink-182), Matt Thiessen (Relient K), Kenny Vasoli (Starting Line), Craig Owens (Chiodos), Alex Gaskarth (All Time Low), Aaron Marsh (Copeland), Duane F. Okun (Socratic), and Bryce Avery (the Rocket Summer), Enders set out to record a song that might just do that. Then in December of 2008, he released Bittersweet Symphony with all the proceeds going to VH1's Save The Music Foundation. After spending most of the summer touring, the band started working on a new album. Unlike their previous release, this was to be a full album. Then on March 17, the band released When I Hit The Ground.

"The Only Thing I Have (The Sign)" is the first single of the album, and I have to say, it's some of their best work yet. So much, that I think I'll be listening to this album for quite a while. That being said, this week's artist is Ace Enders & A Million Different People with their song The Only Thing I Have (The Sign),enjoy.
