We're now 4 days into the PacTour and so far each show has had an amazing turnout! Saosin, InnerPartySystem and P.O.S. are all great artists and we're so excited to be out touring with them.

Anyway, we wanted to thank everyone that entered our twitter contest on Friday. The contest had such an great turnout, we decided to start another Twitter contest that we'll be running the entire length of the PacTour.

To Enter:

-Attend one of the PacTour shows

-Take a picture of us at the show.

-Post the picture as a TwitPic on Twitter along withe text "@EyeAlaska on the #PacTour in (city of the show)."

-Promote your TwitPic to encourage people to comment on it!

Each Friday we will pick one winner that has the most comments on their TwitPic that will get an Eye Alaska prize pack that includes a t-shirt, a signed copy of our new album, Genesis Underground, and a poster.

Then, at the end of the tour, we will take all of the weekly winners TwitPics and host a Twitter picture poll. The picture with the most votes will get a $50 gift certificate to PacSun!

Let the TwitPicing begin!!

Hopefully we'll see you all out on the PacTour soon!

PacTour/What Happens In Vegas Tour

PacTour dates are finally up and I can't wait to get back out on the
road. To kick things off Saosin asked us to play with them at our
favorite place in the world, Chain Reaction, on September 12th. From
there we will be hitting pretty much everywhere in the continental
U.S. and doing a lot of acoustic PacSun in-store performances along
the way.  For a full list of tour dates, check our Myspace page.
Tickets are going on sale soon and they will sell out, so please get
them in advance.

Also, for those of you that missed our last tour, the What Happens in Vegas Tour, check out the video below to get a feel for all that went down on the tour.  We had such a great time out at all the shows, and we know the PacTour is going to be just as much fun.

Can't wait to see you all again.
Much Love

Pac Sun Tour W/ Saosin

It’s official. Eye Alaska is going to be doing this years PacTour w/ Saosin! I really couldn’t be more excited about it. I grew up listening to Saosin and going to all their shows so to be going out with them is a dream come true.

Also Innerpartysystem and the rapper P.O.S. are going to be out with us. I’m so excited about the diversity of the lineup. Again, I always say it, but it just proves that the Genre is a thing of the past in the music of the future.

It all just goes to show that if you want it bad enough you can get it. Don’t let anyone ever tell you otherwise.

This is only the beginning

Love

Genesis Underground is Out Now!

As you may know "Genesis Underground" is finally here. For me, and all of Eye Alaska, this means a lot of things are about to change. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Change is my drug of choice. I need that constant sway to keep me on my toes. To keep me truly alive.

This last year getting signed, being on tour, making a record have opened up my eyes to a world that needs change. Musically, but most of all personally. We’ve been given this platform, this chance to have a voice, and however big that platform may be, we want to use it. A lot of bands are so concerned with being "rockstars" that they forget they have a chance to make a difference in people's lives.

This album may take a couple listens for some people to understand, but when people DO get it there is a connection on another level. Eye Alaska is about so much more than music and I hope people can see that vision.

I'm excited to start the journey with all of you.

Thank you for believing and understanding

Much Love -brandon

Album Art, Track Listing & iTunes Download

I feel like the underground music scene used to be a place where one
could experiment and make art through music. It seems now there has become
this mold that never before existed.
There is a small movement of people starting to break this mold again.
I started calling it the "Genesis Underground". It's the people who are
willing to step out of the box first and influence those around them
to do the same.

With that being said, "Walk Like a Gentleman" is now going to be
available for all of you to download at the iTunes store. We really
thought this song dabbles in many of the elements found on Genesis
Underground. However, I don't think a person can fully understand who
or what Eye Alaska is by listening to one song. Every single song is a
part of a story. Each individual track is a piece and a feeling like a
score of a movie.  The album is meant to run the gamut of human
emotion. The highs and lows and everything in between.
We hope that you can see the vision.

Thank you for believing

Much Love
-brandon

Track Listing:
1. Walk Like a Gentleman
2. Show Me DaLuv
3. Mutiny off the Aleutian Coast by Rorrim Ehtni
