Listening to Oklahoma City rock band Aranda is something like hearing an explosive hybrid of the atom bomb and all of Woodstock combined. They are an experience.

Brothers Dameon and Gabe Aranda have been writing, playing, and singing music together since they were kids, and even at a young age, they knew that music was going to be a major part of their lives. Dameon grew up to work with such artists as Jessica Simpson and the Backstreet Boys, as well as Grammy-nominated producers Sam Watters, Louis Biancaniello, and Mark Ronson. After years of playing shows all over the country and working with some of the biggest names in the music industry, 2009 finally saw them get their due.

2009 saw Aranda’s first single, “Still in the Dark,” climb into the Top 30 in rock radio across the country, and American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson decided to cover two of the band’s songs on her newest album, All I Ever Wanted. One of the songs she covered, “Whyyawannabringmedown,” is Aranda’s follow-up single to “Still in the Dark.” The high-energy song is an in-your-face rebellion, and was selected by the WWE as the official theme song of their event The Bash.

Their CD/DVD set Aranda: Deluxe Edition featured the long awaited “Live from OKC” DVD. Whether you were at Aranda’s CD release show in Oklahoma City or only heard about it, this jam-packed DVD will make you feel like you’re there! It’s the ultimate must-have for any Aranda fan.

Following the success of their debut CD/DVD set Aranda: Deluxe Edition, the band collaborated with Grammy-nominated Producer Johnny K. (Three Doors Down, Sevendust) on their 2nd album “Stop the World”, set to be released in early 2012. The first single from the record is called “Undone” and is currently climbing the active rock charts.

With the brothers’ flawless harmonies and passionate onstage performances, Aranda is a live show you’ll never forget.

“We want to create high energy, keep rocking, keep everybody entertained. We want to involve the audience and make it fun for them,” guitarist Dameon says. “Our hope is that you’ll keep coming back for more.”
