This time, the original series known for connecting fans to the bands they love, will be connecting the legendary Nelson to the Low Country’s premier rock n’ roll outfit, Band of Horses, for a special guest performance.

Fans around the world know that the adventurous Willie Nelson can sing just about anything – and with just about anyone he pleases. As he sees it, “The more songs you know, the more musicians you listen to, the more writers you hear, the better equipped you are to decide where you want to go next. That’s why I want to listen to everyone and everything and then decide which way I want to go. Then, of course, I might change my mind and go in an entirely different direction. But at least I have all these options.”

Willie Nelson shares his love for the American songbook with the anticipated release of ‘American Classic’, his first album of jazz standards since his 1978 masterpiece ‘Stardust’, featuring duets with Norah Jones and Diana Krall.

MySpace Music is excited to announce an unprecedented set of Secret Shows featuring the pop-punk quartet All Time Low.

The band will be performing shows in Washington DC, Chicago, IL, and Orange County, CA, all on Tuesday, July 7, 2009.

The ambitious, cross-country excursion will begin at Midnight and is set to culminate in an evening show scheduled at Anaheim’s Chain Reaction. The Secret Show performances will be held exclusively for MySpace users who were recently notified via MySpace Music’s Secret Show profile (www.myspace.com/secretshows).

Three Secret Shows in one day is a venture MySpace Music has never attempted in its over three-year history, and it’s only fitting they have chosen All Time Low as the first band to carry out such a feat due to group’s overwhelming popularity within the online music community site.

“Pulling off three shows in 24 hours with an indie band like All Time Low is a testament to the strength of the music community on MySpace Music,” explains Isac Walter, MSM Music Editor and Creator of the Secret Show Franchise. “All you need is a rabid fan base in each city and the platform to support it.”

The band’s performance and trek across the nation will be filmed for a special episode of the MySpace Music Feed, a news show that will air the episode on Monday, July 20th.

“This is going to be a crazy adventure! We have wanted to do a MySpace Secret Show for a long time, and to be able to do the first ever one to span three times zones in just 24 hours is incredible,” says Alex Gaskarth from All Time Low. “We have never played three shows in one day and the fact that they span the distance of the continent makes it all that much more fun. If you see us running through the airport to catch our next plane, please wave hello.”

Along the way, All Time Low, Hopeless Records and Ford Fiesta are teaming up to give fans an exclusive window into their three-show adventure with the band.

Fans who are looking to join the adventure can visit Fiesta Movement on July 7th to be apart of the fun with the band.

The collaboration between Hopeless Records and Ford Fiesta was engineered by Viva la Rock; a Los Angeles based creative resource agency regarded for their work in activating highly successful partnerships between globally relevant brands and leaders of the music and entertainment community.

“This is a great partnership because, like All Time Low, the Ford Fiesta and the Fiesta Movement are gaining tremendous popularity that stems from a strong online presence,” said Connie Fontaine, Ford’s Brand Content and Alliance Manager. “We’re excited to be involved in such a unique experience and to reach consumers that may not yet have heard about the Fiesta.”

The press reaction to All Time Low thus far in their career has been fantastic. Their debut full-length, ‘So Wrong, It’s Right’ landed them a spot in Alternative Press’ list of “100 Bands You Need To Know” in 2008, and they were named “Band of the Year” by the magazine in 2009 while making their second appearance on the cover. Absolute Punk, who proclaimed that All Time Low was “your new favorite pop-punk band,” also praised the album, which has scanned over 180,000 copies since its release.

In addition to their forthcoming album, ‘Nothing Personal,’ and scheduled MySpace Secret Shows, All Time Low is confirmed to perform on the Main Stage of this summer’s Vans Warped Tour on a string of dates.

Having just recently finished a tour with Fall Out Boy, All Time Low will be jumping on Warped Tour in Oceanport, NJ, and staying on it until the end in Los Angeles, CA. Prior to these dates, they will do a short headlining tour with We The Kings and Cartel, hitting several cities on the east coast.

Also, All Time Low’s video for the song “Weightless” debuted exclusively on MTV. The video features cameos from Mark Hoppus (Blink 182) and Pete Wentz (Fall Out Boy). You can see the video here: Watch video on MTV

Lead single “The Fear,” which debuted at No. 1 on the U.K. singles chart, recently topped Rolling Stone’s “Hot List.”

MySpace Music announces that one of the most respected names in punk rock Rise Against will be playing a club show at TT The Bears in Boston on October 7, 2008 as part of MySpace’s Secret Show series.

Rise Against – Appeal to Reason [Ecopack] on amazon.com

Appeal To Reason amazon.co.uk

The Secret Show is a free, exclusive performance for the MySpace community. Rise Against and MySpace are asking fans to donate food which will go The Greater Boston Food Bank for entry into the show. The band has also partnered with Peta2 for the show who will be distributing literature inside the show.

This is the first ever Secret Show in which MySpace have partnered with a charity. After talking with the band, the program realized this was the perfect band to do this with and an incredible way to kick off the release of their new album.

For their fifth studio album, ‘Appeal To Reason,’ Rise Against teamed up with Bill Stevenson (Black Flag, Descendants) and Jason Livermore to record at the Blasting Room in Ft. Collins, CO – the same production team and studio used for “The Sufferer & the Witness” and “Revolutions Per Minute.” First single “Re-Education (Through Labor)” is already a top 5 Modern Rock hit.

Rise Against are vocalist Tim McIlrath, bassist Joe Principe, drummer Brandon Barnes and guitarist Zach Blair. In spring 2001, the band released their debut CD ‘The Unraveling’ on Fat Wreck Chords. After two years of solid touring, Rise Against recorded Revolutions Per Minute (2002), followed by Siren Song Of The Counter Culture produced by Gggarth Richardson (Rage Against The Machine, Melvins, Sick Of It All). The Sufferer & the Witness was released in 2006 and debuted at #10 on the Billboard Top 200 chart.

The Greater Boston Food Bank’s mission is to help end hunger in eastern Massachusetts. To achieve its mission, The Food Bank feeds more than 320,000 people annually in nine counties in eastern Massachusetts.

MySpace Music has organized more than 150 Secret Shows since the franchise launched in February 2006 with artists like Gnarls Barkley, The Offspring, Neil Diamond, Slayer, Fran Ferdinand, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs performing in cities around the world.

MySpace announces that the behemoth metal band Trivium will be playing a club show at the legendary Los Angeles rock club Whisky A Go Go on September 22, 2008 as part of MySpace’s Secret Show series. The Secret Show is a free, exclusive performance for the MySpace community.

The Florida band will be previewing songs from their upcoming album ‘Shogun’, due out on Roadrunner Records on September 30, 2008.

Revolver named ‘Shogun’ as one of the most anticipated albums of 2008. Additionally, Rolling Stone deemed Trivium “…one of the few contemporary metal bands that matter.”

Fans of metal will be in for a real treat, as Trivium shows are known to be “off the hook” events where plenty of headbanging ensues! Further proof of the fact that Trivium were crowned “Best Live Band” at the Metal Hammer Golden God Awards in 2006.

Spiritualized released their long awaited sixth album, ‘Songs in A & E’ this past Spring. Serious illness struck Spiritualized frontman and songwriter Jason Pierce – aka J. Spaceman in 2005, and his time spent in intensive care interrupted the completion of the recording, but inevitably perhaps, the setback turned into an inspiration as critics and fans alike have recognized the album not only to be one of the band’s best work, but its most personal too.

Pitchfork said of the new album that it was “Spiritualized’s best work in ten years.” Pierce recently wrote and recorded the soundtrack to the new film, Mr. Lonely, directed by Harmony Korine (Julian Donkey-Boy and Gummo).

Spirtualized is recognized as one of the most original bands in the world. The band’s 1997 album ‘Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space’ was bestowed “Album Of The Year” honors by NME in 1997, beating out Radiohead’s ‘Ok Computer’ and The Verve’s ‘Urban Hymns.’

MySpace Music has organized more than 150 Secret Shows since the franchise launched in February 2006 with artists like Gnarls Barkley, The Offspring, Neil Diamond, Slayer, Fran Ferdinand, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs performing in cities around the world.

MySpace Secret Shows is pleased to announce that The Hold Steady, one of the most critically lauded bands of the last decade, will play a small intimate show at The Railyard in Billings, MT on Thursday, July 24, 2008.

The Secret Show featuring Hold Steady is a free, exclusive performance for the MySpace community and is one of the only shows of this nature that the band will play on their current U.S. tour in support of ‘Stay Positive’, the new album released July 15 on Vagrant Records.

Opening for The Hold Steady is the hook-heavy punk rock band from Philadelphia The Loved Ones who released their latest album, ‘Build & Burn’ to glowing reviews on Fat Wreck Records this past February.

The Hold Steady celebrated the release of the ‘Stay Positive’ by appearing on Late Show with David Letterman playing a song as well as taking part in a comedy skit.

Rolling Stone recently opined, “Right now, no band displays the ranting soul, haunted heart or diseased liver of the American rock myth with more truth and empathy than the Hold Steady.”

MySpace Music has organized more than 150 Secret Shows since the franchise launched in February 2006 with artists like Gnarls Barkley, Neil Diamond, Slayer, Franz Ferdinand, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs performing in cities around the world.

MySpace Secret Shows is pleased to announce that Jason Mraz, one of modern music’s most inventive and compelling live performers, will play a stripped down set in Hartford, CT at Webster Underground on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 at 8 PM.

Mraz will be accompanied by percussionist/vocalist Toca Rivera. During a break from his worldwide tour in support of his latest album, ‘We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.’, Jason Mraz will perform a very intimate show at the 200-capacity Webster Underground.

The Secret Show is a free, exclusive performance for the MySpace community.

Released in May 2008, ‘We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.’ skyrocketed to #3 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Charts, the highest charting album in Mraz’s career.

The album sees Mraz continuing to tread his own distinctive artistic path, melding a variegated musical tapestry with passionate, personal lyricism. Among the highlights are collaborations with British tunesmith James Morrison and MySpace phenom singer/songwriter Colbie Caillat.
