Vaeda is a four-piece rock band from New York with a mission
to spread their knowledge of the truth by creating timeless music.
The band's powerful, uncompromising sound is a whirlwind of emotion,
evoking the same reactions of all who hear it; feelings of
exhilaration, aggression, and astonishment, as well as feelings of
power, passion, and visions of a better world. Their songs blend
diversity and accessibility, featuring heavy grooves with ambient
guitar textures and potent lyrics that touch on everything from
political and social unrest to personal struggle and the human
condition.
Vaeda formed in early 2003, fresh out of universities the likes of
Princeton, Hofstra, Stanford, and the University of Pennsylvania.
The band quickly emerged from the industrial wastelands of Brooklyn
with songs inspired by the world around them and the transgressions
of daily New York City life. After several fortunate chains of
events, the band's music caught the ear of producer Kyle Kelso (Tony
C and the Truth, Lava/Atlantic) and they immediately began a working
relationship. As of the middle of 2004, the band has almost
completed their debut album and has played over 60 shows in a matter
of months. Just recently, Vaeda was chosen to be a part of the AMP
Energy Drink 6-Pack National College Radio campaign, which will
provide exposure for the band to more than 300 college radio
stations. The band will also be featured on the Spike TV
show "Dangerous Curves" in September, with more television and film
placements pending. Vaeda recently performed a highly successful
outing at the Six Flags Rock and Ride Festival in Louisville, KY,
playing in front of thousands at the largest unsigned band festival
in the nation. They also begin a national radio campaign with
McGathy Promotions (Nirvana, System of a Down, Chevelle, Nickelback)
this summer and fall.
Vaeda is emerging as one of the premiere bands of the New York rock
scene. Due to their educated backgrounds, they aspire to do more
than just create mosh pits; they actively seek out worthy causes with
whom to form alliances, such as War Child (www.warchildusa.org), an
international group that provides relief to children who are victims
of war. Given the chance, Vaeda will inspire a new generation of
music fans who search for truth and knowledge in their own lives and
the world around them. With the help of management from Idol Roc
Entertainment, Samantha Cox from BMI, and legal representation from
Howard Sadowsky of The Law Offices of Howard Sadowsky, Vaeda is
poised to lead music into a new era, one in which knowledge is the
key and where every person has the potential to make a difference.
