Armored Dawn

Find a concept, work with the right partners and invest in the potential to pursue your dreams. From this perspective, Armored Dawn was born in 2014 and within a few years became relevant in the Brazilian metal scene. After all, they toured alongside great bands such as Saxon, Megadeth, Scorpions, Whitesnake, Europe, Hammerfall, Rhapsody, Fates Warning, Sabaton, Tarja Turunen, in addition to joining Motörboat, the cruise of the legendary band Motörhead.

The first two albums, Power of Warrior (2016) and Barbarians in Black (2018), were produced by important professionals such as Tommy Hansen (Helloween, Jorn), Bruno Agra (We Are Harlot) and Kato Khandwala (The Pretty Reckless, Papa Roach). The third, Viking Zombie, was produced, mixed and mastered by Rodrigo Oliveira and Heros Trench, who is a veteran producer, with more than 200 bands under his belt and a Latin Grammy winner.

Presenting a sophisticated and versatile metal, the group collects great works in music videos, such as the very special production “Sail Away” and “Beware of the Dragon”, shown in all movie theaters in Brazil during the trailers for the 2018 Aquaman movie. Besides, “Ragnarok” and “Animal Uncaged” (recorded at the Rockfest festival, at Allianz Parque, São Paulo, when they played to around 37,000 people) have millions of views on YouTube.

During the pandemic, they released the single “Stronger Together”, very well accepted by the fans, as well as the most recent, “S.O.S.”, which came out last July.

The new single ‘Aly May’ from ‘Doctor Tongue’ with it’s epic, majestic and beautiful rock sound is on the Hollywood playlist now.

The head of music for Hollywood FM Digital said he loved the new single ‘Aly May’ from ‘Doctor Tongue’ with it’s epic, majestic and beautiful rock sound, melodic vocals and delicious guitar playing and solid Rythm section, that combines Rock and Pop with country and beyond. This amazing and classic sounding single is now on the playlist and will be played every day + as a special spotplay daily at approx 6 PM Pacific Time for a month or more.

“Aly May” is the new single from Doctor Tongue. Embodying a genre-inclusive approach, Doctor Tongue emits an inimitable and irresistible frequency tuned into rock, alternative, funk, country, pop and the kitchen sink.  “Aly May”  was written through spontaneous jam sessions, and over time, it was formed into a complete song and produced by Mark McMaster and George Panagopoulos at Sanctuary Recording Studio. Aly May is the second release, it references the singer’s wife, and their beautiful story told in a universal context. It’s about a long journey of self-discovery, exploration, disappointment, struggle, faith and the personal humanity we all go through on our search through space and time before we finally find someone worth singing about. ‘Aly May” will be available on Oct 21st on all digital platforms and streaming services on Jetpack Records.

“We live in a world where everything is categorized; music has become data that must fit into a genre. Things are looped and edited, and the art of performance and true musical expression is being lost. Doctor Tongue shows how to break through and create something that lives in all of us .” 

 –New Music North 

Doctor Tongue is – George Panagopoulos [vocals, keys], Codi Maki [bass], Dylan Mathews [guitar], Tyrone Ramsey [Guitar], Mark McMaster [drums], and Tom Bigas [percusion].  The band members form a prolific writing force that has created dozens of songs quickly. The first two releases, “Below” and “Aly May,” speak to their boldness. They are not here to sell you anything; they are introducing listeners to an experience they a willing to share.  

“I am an audiophile; this is the first time I’ve been excited over a band playing songs like this in a very long time. Its sonic artistry with musicality and vocal performances that are something to write home about ” – Roots Rock Magazine

“Aly May” illuminates the scope of the band’s musical prowess both in songwriting and performance.  Ethereal, complex yet sublime cross-speaker guitars blend above a steady beat and give way to a silky verse and the first chorus that eventually gives way to a crescendo into the vocal performance that is seldom heard. 

About Jetpack Records and Sanctuary Recording Studio: Jetpack is an independent record label founded in Hamilton, Canada, in 2016 by Panagopoulos and McMaster. A few years before the two met, McMaster had purchased a century-old inner-city church and converted it into a premiere recording studio outfitted with top-shelf analog gear.  The two started writing and recording together, and by the end of 2014, they became partners in Downtown Hamilton’s Sanctuary Recording Studio. Bringing their collective vision to life, the two incorporate a hybrid of the best of old-school and modern technology and methods, both in the recording studio and Doctor Tongue’s songs. 

“People are going to fall in love with this band. Doctor Tongue is the real deal.”ROSS HOGARTH — Six-time grammy award-winning producer/engineer.

With a love for defying convention, ‘Sachiko Tiana’ drops her new single ‘You Got it’.

Sachiko Tiana seems like an unlikely candidate for a Pop/R&B body positive anthem, but it’s exactly her love for defying convention that created this mirror pep talk turned self-love mantra embodied in song. As Sachiko gives herself permission to love and appreciate her 37-year-old post-baby, bell’s-palsy-having imperfect face and body, she gives everyone who listens the same permission to have unapologetic self-love for whatever shape or size they see in the mirror too. Plus, try not to get the chorus stuck in your head; I dare you! 

Independent artist, entrepreneur and podcast personality Sachiko Tiana released her first single in over 4 years that’s already a fan-favorite! The 37-year-old toddler mom, fresh out of a several-year trauma healing journey wrote most of this pop/R&B tune while giving herself a post-shower pep talk in the mirror. “My 14-year-old self, who had a raging eating disorder, would be AMAZED at the good things I have to say about my post-baby bod today!” The single was released on Septemer 16, 2022, days before Sachiko Tiana’s 10 Year Wedding Anniversary.

Sachiko Tiana is not only a different kind of artist but she’s also a role model – creating a sense of safety and acceptance for people of all walks of life. Music has always been present in her life like it has for many others, but she takes it a step further to make sure the art she creates always tells a story of triumph over trauma. While the song speaks of a transition to self-love, Sachiko has had to work through unspeakable tragedy in order to have a healthy relationship with herself. Far from perfect, she wants to be a glowing example of what’s possible as people lean into their own healing journey and embrace their deepest and most authentic selves…but make it spicy!

“You Got It” was released September 16, 2022 on Spotify, iTunes and other popular platforms.
