Meet the Band
Independence breeds creativity.
And that is very apparent in the Southeast, where Atlanta-based alternative rock band titofelix has found new life by upgrading their sound. Armed with the release of their newest full-length album, All Good Things…, the core group of Marc Cordon, P.J. Sobremonte, Robeen Dey and “BabyJay” Jay Opalia is quickly transitioning away from the pop-punk for which they are best known and moving one step closer to defining a more rock-oriented feel.
Formed in Atlanta in August 2000, titofelix briefly relocated to Tampa, FL, to record and release their debut album, Faux Pas. The band followed it up with a series of EPs and even a music video for theit first single, Man of Steel, that screened at several film festivals.
March, 2004, saw the release of titofelix’s second full-length album, Character Flaw. Recorded in Jacksonville, FL, under the guidance of renowned engineers Paul Lapinski (Yellowcard, Alicia Keys) and Daryl Phenneger (Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Evergreen Terrace), this much-anticipated sophomore effort incorporates shades of punk, classic rock and hip-hop/funk elements within the polished quality of a major-label release. Notable tracks on Character Flaw include the fan-favorite Been Around The World, as well as a cover of Usher’s Nice and Slow.
With the release of All Good Things…, the band reunites with Paul Lapinski and Daryl Phenneger once again to hit you hard with their energetic guitar riffs, catchy lyrics and tight melodies. Coupled with an energetic live show and a growing fanbase, expect titofelix to continue making a mark on the music scene in 2007 and beyond.
