The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Heats Up the 10th Annual Sennheiser NAMM Dealer Appreciation Party

The concert event of the 2008 NAMM Show is sure to be the Sennheiser Dealer Appreciation Party, which this year will feature red-hot pop-punk/screamo band The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, plus young soul/R&B singer Ryan Shaw. This tenth annual event is being held Friday, January 18, 2008 at the House of Blues-Anaheim, located just a short walk from the Convention Center in the Downtown Disney District of Disneyland.

One of the hits of this summer’s Warped Tour, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus have been touring hard behind the release of their debut album, “Don’t You Fake It,” which was certified gold at the end of last year. The band and their engineer, Casey MacGregor, were already Sennheiser fans when they recently signed-up to outfit the entire stage with 900 Series evolution microphones, including e 935 evolution wireless microphones for the five band members, who all sing. “They sound spectacular, and the guys really love the wireless. I’m very happy with the product,” reported MacGregor as the band prepared to wrap up the year with radio concert shows in Tennessee and Virginia.

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus – who first got together in Middleburg, Florida in 2003 yet, still have an average age of just 21 – and their engineer can’t wait to get back to Anaheim. “I took the two guitar players, the drummer and the drum tech to NAMM last year for the first time,” said MacGregor. “We didn’t know what to expect but we had a really good time there. We met a lot of people and it was a lot of fun. We’re looking forward to the show and to a great party with Sennheiser.”

Also on the bill at Sennheiser's 10th Annual Dealer Appreciation Party will be Ryan Shaw, a 26-year-old singer/songwriter from Decatur, Georgia who is out to revive the passion and soul of the golden age of rhythm and blues. Shaw’s debut album, “This Is Ryan Shaw,” presents the singer’s original tunes alongside classics from the likes of legends Wilson Pickett, Jackie Wilson and Bobby Womack. Shaw’s powerfully expressive voice, which reviewers have compared to the great Otis Redding, is a must listen to at the Sennheiser party!

Anyone wishing to attend this not-to-be-missed event should visit the Sennheiser Booth #6579 and ask one of the sales reps for an invitation. The party starts at 7:00 p.m. Friday, January 18th and will go until 11:00 p.m. at The House of Blues, 1530 South Disneyland Drive, and will include complimentary food, cocktails, and entertainment. From the convention center, it's only a ten-minute "zip-a-dee-doo-dah" walk, a $5 cab ride, or a $3 Disney shuttle ride round trip (purchase tickets in advance via your hotel).
