Northeast Records signs Punk Is Dead

The world’s only Punk rock band that exclusively plays Grateful Dead covers, Punk Is Dead, has signed to Northeast Records. After playing a series of sold out shows in LA and generating a huge buzz, the genre-bending Los Angeles-based quartet will be entering the studio in June to record their debut album. The yet-to-be-titled full-length is set for a Sept/Oct 2010 release.

Singer & guitarist Jeff Abarta had this to say: “Mike and Garry are close friends of ours, and we are proud to be a part of the Northeast Records family. The opportunity to make a record for our friends makes perfect sense for us. We are joining a stable of very cool Punk bands that do one thing that we appreciate: keep it real…even if what they do has never been done before (that would be us).”
