About

-Three-fourths of Attention once comprised the core of Atlantic Records recording artists Gratitude, a band that achieved international success playing such major events as Coachella, Reading and Leeds, and toured with heavy hitting bands like My Chemical Romance, Jimmy Eat World, Razorlight, Minus the Bear, Straylight Run, and Funeral For a Friend.

-Attention recorded the "Stand Strong" EP at Seedy Underbelly studios in Los Angeles, CA. The tracks were produced and engineered by Grammy Award winner Chris Testa (Dixie Chicks, Jimmy Eat World), mixed by Grammy Award winner James Harley (Lucinda Williams, Quietdrive, Lucky Boys Confusion), and mastered by Vlado Meller (Kanye West, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Oasis).

-Without the help of a label or booking agent, Attention completed a very successful US tour with Victory recording artists The Forecast and Spitalfield, as well as Icon Mes recording artists The Graduate.

-In May of 2008, Attention toured the UK with ex-Gratitude and Far singer Jonah Matranga. The coming months will find Attention returning to Japan, where the band already enjoyed a successful headlining tour and has two releases on Bad News Records (Bright Eyes, Limbeck).

-The band is currently in the studio recording a full length record to be released in late 2008.
