Full Descriptionsoulful passion, raw energy and lyrics that explore the cultural anomalies created by southerners living in Hollywood combine to make this one of the most exciting live acts on the club circuit today.The Dead Rebels have just recently completed their debut album, recorded by legendary producers Dee, Joe and Bruce Robb at Cherokee Studios; mastering was done at Capitol Records in Hollywood. (The Robbs have produced albums by such top rock icons as Paul McCartney, Keith Richards, David Bowie and Rod Stewart, to name just a few).Four tracks from the album have already been chosen by MTV/VH1 for use in the networks' fall line-up of shows. (Including Pimp My Ride- and an as yet untitled John Mayer special.)Head rebel Lance Palmer (who handles lead vocals, guitar, and songwriting duties) grew up in the Deep South in Thomasville, Georgia. Although he worked as a drummer in a barrage of local bands while in high school, he chose to pursue the business of film after completing graduation; this precipitated a move to Los Angeles where Palmer first developed an interest in songwriting.Through the film industry Palmer then relocated to New York, where his interest in music continued to grow. He became a constant presence in some of Manhattan's most prestigious clubs as a solo performer, and his honest, insightful approach to lyrics quickly earned him a following. His first self-released CD gained the attention of several record label talent scouts. (Including David Fitch of RCA, whose last coup' de tat before retiring was signing current indie favorite The Strokes.)Needing a change of scenery, Palmer once again relocated - this time to Nashville, Tennessee, where he met and began playing with native son Greg Walker.
