9/11 – Still Remember You

The day has come that Dad has gone over the top. He’s actually starting to get into music besides Elvis Presley and Little Anthony & the Imperials. I’ve really come to appreciate the music of these young men. You can catch a glimpse of them this September at the Break Away II Sports Lounge, in Hagerstown, Maryland.

vs. the earth is a rock act from the mid-atlantic region that has a unique sound. They combine guitar-driven rhythm, real lyrical content, and infectious hook and melody to make a musical style unequaled in the region. Their exciting stage presence and high energy live set make them an act not to be missed.

And no I haven’t completely lost it. I fell in love with the music of these young men when I heard them play their original hit song "Still Remember You", a tribute to 9/11 wittten by the groups own Adam Marino.

Here’s a clip of one of their concerts playing their award winning tribute to 9/11 "Still Remember You"

Baltimore native Adam Marino of vs the Earth recently received the honor of being named a Finalist by the Song of the Year ( http://www.songoftheyear.com/ ) songwriting contest. Song of the Year is an international songwriting contest supporting VH-1’s Save the Music Foundation. The Song of the Year judges are some of the biggest names in music including

Song of the Year is excited to recognize Adam for his exceptional songwriting ability for the song Still Remember You. Adam competed against songwriters from all over the world for this honor. When asked what inspired the song Adam commented that “9/11 was his inspiration”. “I just wanted to give something back to those who had lost so much”. “I went out on the porch on September 11th and the song just wrote itself”.
