Coinciding with the announcement of their third "Aurora" single "Beautiful In White" and new national tour dates, Antiskeptic welcome back their original bass player. After searching for nine months for a bass player to fill the void created by Sean Daly when he left the band in 2003, Antiskeptic can finally announce that they have found the perfect replacement in a renewed Sean Daly. After experimenting with a few other bass players during their "Aurora" album launch tour, recently Sean came back to fill in for a few shows, and after much discussion and contemplation, he has decided to rejoin. Seans time away was important for all members to redefine the core focus and direction of the band. Things are just hotting up, so expect some exciting things to happen in the future.
First off the blocks will be the upcoming shows, including the Pushover Festival (Melbourne) and the release of the new single "Beautiful in White". In an effort to keep the summer festival circuit alive and the kids happy, Antiskeptic will soon be embarking on the all ages "Renegade Tour". This touring mini-festival, proudly presented by Revolution Industries and Custom - Made Touring, will feature Antiskeptic as the headline act alongside two other touring bands and three local bands in each state.
After great success with the first two singles "Nothing to Say" and "Clear to Pass", two national tours and media support from the likes of JJJ, MTV, Video Hits and Hot Tomato, the band are confident that "Beautiful in White" will be the one to take the critically acclaimed sell out album "Aurora" to new heights. Beautiful in White will be available from March 1 through Toupee Records and MGM Distribution.
