“Across State Lines” is the debut record by Dead Fish Handshake, a rock band based out of the Northeast United States. Slated for a March 5th, 2011 release, the six song collection ranges from the guitar driven riff rock of “Undercurrent” to the ballad-esque melodies of “Changes” and “I Know”. The release will be available through online digital retailers as well as physical CD via www.deadfishhandshake.com and on tour-dates. The band has road tested the material playing the club, college and festival circuit as well as opening for a national act on more than one occasion. This introduction to the DFH sound, produced by guitarist Rob Ferreira, boasts guest performances by a handful of talented musicians from the NJ area in an effort to feature one of the more promising local scenes on the East Coast.
