SUMMARY:Saving Abel
DESCRIPTION:On their self-titled Virgin Records debut\, Saving Abel bo
	ast a cool\, alt-rock\, Southern-tinged sound that’s instantly famil
	iar and irresistible. With songs ranging from the intense rocker “Ne
	w Tattoo” to the sexy groove of the first single\, “Addicted\,” 
	the quintet from Corinth\, Mississippi are radio-ready. Singer Jared W
	eeks and guitarist Jason Null met in late 2004\, and by 2005 were reco
	rding acoustic demos with producer Skidd Mills (12 Stones\, Saliva\, S
	ubmersed). Saving Abel then moved into a more rock/electric direction 
	with a full band lineup\, while “Addicted” garnered local radio su
	pport that led to a 2007 deal with Virgin and the 2008 release of Savi
	ng Abel. With influences including Lynyrd Skynyrd\, the Seattle sound\
	, Johnny Cash\, and AC/DC’s Angus Young\, Null explains that Saving 
	Abel has been “compared to the Black Crowes\, Nickelback\, 3 Doors D
	own\, even Incubus--everyone seems to hear what they want in us. We’
	re just trying to connect with people.” Adds Weeks: “And we’re g
	oing to keep doing what we do until they don’t want to hear it no mo
	re!”
