Say Anything have signed a new deal with Civilized Artist Management. This news comes ahead of the band’s new music and touring plans.
In other news, frontman Max Bemis has also relaunched his Song Shop. As such, he will be offering fans personalized songs, one‑on‑one creative experiences, custom video messages, etc.
Bemis commented:
“I’ve been writing tens of thousands (never counted, but ballpark) of songs for people who appreciate my music since 2009. We call it ‘Song Shop.’ We’ve attempted to open more selectively, but when I do start to sing and write them again (at the same time; they’re improvised and recorded all at once), it does a lot for me. It’s a distillation of the connection between a musical artist and the person listening to a song, but removing the middleman — i.e., the literal experiential gap; you’re not just hearing a song that, for example, reminds you of wanting to die or how much you love your girlfriend. You’re hearing the specifics of your own life through my own voice and (hopefully) empathy and seeing how (hopefully) one of your favorite songwriters can actually relate to your experience enough to sing about it.”
