**Brand New Single 'Gone' Out Now! Head to Malone Headquarters now to grab your copy!**

Gone may be the days where bands will get up in their old shirt, stand there and play music that no one cares about. Not this band! Gone are the days when not only did you get great melodic music, but a band that could entertain you and put some effort into their shows. Well this band thrives on it! 'Malone' will shape the way rock music is delivered in Wellington and NZ.

Not new to the game Malone are now based in Wellington and along with their hot new act comes a new bass player. Front man, Shayne, describes Malone's new sound: "Take The Feelers and mix it with some Opshop, add a pound of U2 with a teaspoon of Coldplay, stir in Bon Jovi with a dollop of Motley Crue; and finally, sprinkle some Pink Floyd, Greenday and Linkin park and you will arrive at this original bands powerful, catchy and hook-laden songs".

Shayne initially fronted his own band under his name 'Shayne Malone' and released the album 'Real Life Games'. Real Life Games has been appropriately described as 'Bon Jovi meets The Feelers with a good old kick in the balls'. The album displays a powerful, full-on rock style with strong hooks and melodies. The video for the first single, 'Touch My Soul', has received over 340,000 views to date, which makes them one of the most viewed videos of all time in New Zealand.

Among their many accomplishments, Malone have also opened for Opshop at Shake the Lake in 2008 and performed an Auckland showcase for the legendary Ray Columbus. This band is bringing back the rock and thrive on putting on a polished and exciting live show! A definite must see for any lover of damn good rock!

With their new album due for release in mid '09, Malone will embark on establishing one of the best live shows in NZ, and promoting their world class act wherever they go.
