GO SEE FIXER LIVE NOW OR KICK YOURSELF LATER

How many times have you suffered utter disappointment after seeing a band perform for the first time because their live show didn’t capture you the same way their album did? You fell for one of the music industry’s secret weapons: overproducing a band to make them appear to have more talent then they actually do. It’s the reason why every band on the radio sounds the same and the days of history making tours ala Phish and the Grateful
Dead are gone. But if Fixer have their way, things are going to change.

("These boys are out to take over the world." - New York Waste)

The power of Fixer’s live show has yet to be captured by any producer. The enthusiasm and ramshackle charm with which they bound around the stage never seems to impede their always tight-yet-supple, unpredictable performances. One show is all it will take to convert you. You’ll see why Fixer are the next level of the touring rock act. They bring back the glory days of Guns ‘N Roses and Stone Temple Pilots, when blazing guitars, heavy drums, and thunderous bass combined with the powerful vocal chops of a seductive frontman drove crowds wild and sold out shows. The ability to pack hundreds of fans into CBGB, in their hometown of New York City, without the luxury of a labels’ backing, is one reason why Fixer is a record label’s answer to the current decline in sales.

("There are literally thousands of bands in New York City; Fixer are rock stars, they just don’t have a platinum record yet. What I love about this band is that they treat every fucking show – even a Thursday night in Brooklyn – like it was a CD release party, a photo shoot, and New Year’s Eve all rolled into one.” - Jersey Beat)

Hype is one thing, but the facts on Fixer justify the buzz. After all, how many other bands are there that have recorded five albums, nabbed top notch producers, toured from New York to California, played the Rock ‘N Roll Hall of Fame, opened for national acts, and appeared on movie soundtracks completely on their own? There’s a reason why music video directors are competing to be the first to capture the craze surrounding Fixer, and labels are now throwing offers their way.

("Fixer are the epitome of rock ‘n roll...galvanizing showmanship...heavy guitar and drums...Saffer’s vocals are astoundingly melodic." - GarageRadio.com)

The east coast is already ahead of the game, and this June, Fixer will return to California for a mini-tour to preview their upcoming release, Mixing In With My Blood, for west coast fans and press. Tracks were recorded with Jeff Tomei (Smashing Pumpkins, Matchbox 20, Jerry Cantrell) and Brian Howes (Closure, Hinder) at Cock of The Walk Studios in Kennesaw, Georgia and at Nickelback vocalist Chad Kroeger's Mountain View Studios in Vancouver, Canada.
