Silversun Pickups Alt Rock Hit, Playing Kimmel

04/09/07
. (PR) The little Silverlake band that could, otherwise known as Silversun Pickups, has broken into the Top 10 on the Alternative Rock Chart, with "Lazy Eye" moving into the #9 spot, up three slots this week. Due in part to the arresting lead single from their Dangerbird Records debut, Carnavas, the album has generated impressive sales of more than 110,000 to date and has remained in Billboard's Top 200 chart for weeks. Captivating audiences nationwide with their electric performances, the Pickups will stop by the Jimmy Kimmel Live show, Tuesday, April 17th to perform several songs on their outdoor stage. This will serve as a prime opportunity to warm up for their Coachella performance, Friday, April 27, on the Main Stage.

The foursome is at the tail-end of their national tour with Snow Patrol and will play sporadic headlining dates on both coasts before heading to the U.K. in support of their May 28 release date. Dangerbird Records has secured an ex-North America license for the band with Sire Records/Warner Bros but undoubtedly remains the band's home in the U.S.
