PROMISED LAND - SOMETHING IN THE AIR

At least two acts have used the name Promised Land: 1) Shortly after his band Wang Chung split in 1990, Nick Feldman teamed with Jon Moss of Culture Club to form Promised Land. A self-titled album released by Epic Records in 1992 generated little interest, and they split soon afterward. 2) A country-rock foursome from Nashville, Tennessee Joey Scala - Bass, Vocals Sean Thompson - Lead Guitar, Vocals Evan Scala - Drums Luke Schneider - Rhythm Guitar Ricardo Alessio - Piano, Keys Promised Land emerged from the fertile Nashville garage scene — members have played with PUJOL, Denney and the Jets, and members of JEFF The Brotherhood and Those Darlins, among others — but they have quickly evolved to deploy a more varied country and soul palette than most of their brethren and sistren. In short order, they’ve managed to attract the admiration of esteemed folks like fellow Nashvillian Jack White, who is releasing a live 7” of theirs on his Third Man Records. Read more on Last.fm.
