Just a Dream

Genre: Progressive Metalcore Members: Zach Holmes (Vocals/Synth) Mark Aguilar (Guitar) Maxwell Holmes (Guitar) Austin Blades (Drums) Josh Rodriguez (Bass/Clean Vocals) Just A Dream, straight out of San Antonio, Texas is a Progressive Metalcore act looking to break down the sub-genre barriers of "metal". They blend the immense energy of heavy metal music and the beauty of progressive melody creating the diverse sound that is Just A Dream. "I have always found Progressive music the most interesting in how it shows the unity between genres of music and people"-Zachary Holmes "The collective motivator and driving force for this band is to encourage people to pursue what they love and for them to express their individuality."-Austin Blades They want to encourage others to be open minded to a sound that is ever-changing, unable to be classified in one particular genre, ultimately bringing people together for an awesome live, energy-filled experience. "This group has always been jamming together in some way. I know it was Austin and Zach, then me and Austin and Josh and all kinds of groupings and we finally all came together. I just wonder how we didn't think if it sooner than we did"- Mark Aguilar Beginning in April of 2013, Just A Dream had their very first live show opportunity at The White Rabbit, and have since then played in other venues such as The Korova (San Antonio), Harmony Sweet (New Braunfels), The House Of Rock (Corpus Christi) etc. The journey of this band has been an amazing experience and they cannot wait to see what is in store for them in the road ahead. Just A Dream has performed alongside many renown artists such as Fit For a King, Darkness Divided, All Who Defy, Across the Atlantic, and XURL. Just A Dream's experiences with these other bands in San Antonio have created a family-like bond, they each support each other fully and want each and every one to prosper. Their new debut full length album "Finite/Unbound" is to be released April 24, 2015 at the Daisy Dukes 6th Festival at The Korova. Finite/Unbound was recorded at War Horse Recordings with Christopher Mora (guitarist from Darkness Divided). Just A Dream really enjoyed their experience at War Horse Recordings, though it was hard work getting the first full length album finished, it was a very professional, welcoming environment. "Recording this record was an amazing experience and we cannot wait to show the world what we have worked so hard on for so long"-Josh Rodriguez "Finite/Unbound" is a concept album, elaborating on a character discovering his tragic flaw, ultimately leading to his demise. "We're young, determined, focused and we have a long journey ahead. We have our goals set in mind and will continue doing what it takes to get there" -Maxwell Holmes Just A Dream's full length album "Finite/Unbound" is scheduled to release on April 24, 2015 and they will be going on tour around Texas with their brothers in All Who Defy and XURL this summer of 2015. Just A Dream is very active and are already writing new material for their next upcoming album. Just A Dream will be opening for Enter Shikari, A Lot Like Birds, and I, The Mighty on April 28th at The Korova. These young, motivated musicians are excited for the road ahead and eager to see what is around the corner for them. Instagram:@JustADreamOfficial Twitter: @JustADreamTX
