Past performer's thoughts on the Showcase Series: "In a very short time, Music Gorilla has made a huge difference in our band's career. It all started this past March... We were invited to play Music Gorilla's Live Major Label Showcase in Austin, Texas. It was there that we connected with a producer/A&R rep from Capital Records. Several months later we're excited to announce the release of our new CD, 'Take A Seat,' which was produced, recorded and mixed by Jimmy Landry! The tracks are amazing and many doors have opened. Thanks for taking a chance on a bunch of 16 year olds! You guys are amazing!" - Ned, Steve, Collin & Koz (Comic Book Heroes)
