JIMMY EAT WORLD TOP THIS WEEK’S ROCK CHART

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008
US rock band Jimmy Eat World comfortably tops this week’s Fabchannel rock chart. On 8th February 2008 Jimmy Eat World performed in Amsterdam. We had the honor of recording them as our first Universal band. Ever since, their concert could be found high up in our charts. 

Jimmy Eat World was founded in 1993 by singer/guitarist Jim Adkins and drummer Zach Linden. Joined by guitarist Tom Linton and bassist Mitch Porter (later replaced by Rick Burch) they formed their own rock band.
The four from Mesa, Arizona broke through in 2001 with the hits ‘The Middle’ and ‘Sweetness’, taken from the album ‘Bleed American’ of which they sold 1.3 million copies.
After 2004’s ‘Futures’, their sixth studio album ‘Chase This Light’ was released in 2007. For the recording of ‘Chase This Light’ Jimmy Eat World teamed up with top producer Butch Vig (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins). The band’s repertoire varies from alternative to indie rock and pop to punk.

First Universal concert on Fabchannel a fact!

Friday, February 29th, 2008
We have already announced it earlier this week and now it’s official: the first Universal/Fabchannel concert recording is a fact! Earlier this month we recorded Jimmy Eat World’s amazing Paradiso concert, which is now out there for you to watch on www.fabchannel.com/jimmy_eat_world

We really wanted to make something special out of this one, so we threw in a bunch of extra camera’s and let our editors go crazy. To the satisfaction of both band and label, who were thrilled by the result.
