Buzz Track: Too Late

Indie pop-act Dinner And A Suit are building a buzz with their latest release “Since Our Departure. To capture their musical focus, Dinner And A Suit split their time between First Street Studios in Cleveland, TN with producer Tyler Orr (Copeland, As Cities Burn), then with Matt Goldman (Anberlin, Underoath, Cartel) at Glow in the Dark Studios in Atlanta, GA.

Dinner And A Suit recently became a MTV Buzzworthy Artist, one of Seventeen’s “17 Bands Everyone Should Be Talking About” and named a “Rising Tide” by Billboard Magazine as they prepare to launch a six-week US tour in February 2013.
