Veilside Bio:
Hailing from the suburbs of Chicago, Veilside in its' current form has been a force on the Chicago music scene since 2006. Combining influences from across the musical spectrum, Veilside is a modern melodic rock band in the vein of their influences Nickelback, Shinedown, and Black Stone Cherry. In March 2009, the band was named "Best Original Band" by Suburban Nitelife Magazine. Their first EP, "Chapter One" was released in June of 2008 and to date has sold over 3000 copies. Not resting on their laurels, Veilside once again entered the studio to begin recording a much more ambitious CD titled "This Time..." with producer Chuck Alkazian (Slipknot, Elton John, Cristina Aguilera) at Pearl Sound Studios for release in March 2011. The CD features 5 new Veilside originals and their popular hard rock cover of the Kansas mega-hit "Dust in the Wind". Veilside is a very strong supporter of children's charities, having donated time and money to the Kelsey Briggs Foundation Against Child Abuse, The Autism Society of Illinois, Headstones for Angels, and the National SIDS Organization, as well as hosts the annual "Breaking the Silence" autism benefit show now going on it's fourth year. |
