Crossfade (American band)

---|
Crossfade is a post-grunge/hard rock band from Columbia, South Carolina. The group was formed in 1999 with singer and guitarist Ed Sloan, bassist and backing vocalist Mitch James, and drummer Brian Geiger of the power trio The Nothing. At one point Crossfade was also known as Sugardaddy Superstar.[1] The band changed its name to Crossfade in 2002, and later added singer and DJ Tony Byroads. Crossfade attracted the interest of the Los Angeles, California A&R company Taxi (Independent A&R), which ultimately led to the signing of a record deal with the Earshot division of Columbia Records.[2] They released their first full-length self-titled album on April 13, 2004 and their latest album, "Falling Away", released on August 29, 2006, with Columbia Records. Recently, they were cut from Columbia Records, with their new label to be determined.[3]
They're currently working on their third album which is set to be released in early 2009.[3]
