Picture Me Broken - No Apology Necessary! Powerhouse Bay Area Foursome Breaks Ground on Their 'Melodic Hard Rock/Screamo' Vibe With Their Debut Indie EP 'Dearest (I'm So Sorry)'

LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/ Luck Media & Marketing) - Picture Me Broken gives us another reason not to take song titles too literally. The explosive title track from the debut EP by the Northern California-based powerhouse may be called 'Dearest (I'm So Sorry),' but with the massive buzz they've been building, this ruckus-raising foursome has NOTHING to apologize for!

Everyone's been talking about them earning a VMA as MTV's 'Best Breakout Bay Area Band,' an award co-sponsored by the network and popular indie artist site www.ourstage.com. The exposure their video got on MTV2 as finalists this summer sent the listens on their MySpace page (www.myspace.com/picturemebroken) up to 6,000/day.

They've rocked the house everywhere from San Francisco's Bottom of the Hill and Blake's in Berkeley to the Knitting Factory and Whiskey A Go Go in L.A., grabbed an opening slot at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, CA, for Linkin' Park's Projekt Revolution in 2008 and played the SF stop of the 2009 Warped Tour. On Sept. 18, PMB became a featured band on Pure Volume (www.purevolume.com), an indie music and social networking site that's been credited with helping the careers of platinum bands like My Chemical Romance and Panic! At The Disco. 'Dearest (I'm So Sorry)' was recently the No 1 download on the site for nine days straight!

Fans of all ages are blown away when they realize these intensely talented and dedicated musicians - lead singer Layla Brooklyn Allman, lead guitarist Nick Loiacono, bassist Austin Dunn and drummer Connor Lung are just 16 years old.

Layla recently did a promo spot on 'The Turntable' for the new McDonald's Channel with Justin Mustaine. The two were a perfect match for the segment, as both are kids of rock legends� Mustaine is the son of Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine, while Layla's dad is Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Gregg Allman from the legendary Allman Brothers Band.
Five tracks on the EP were produced by Avenged Sevenfold's producer Mudrock. The EP is now available on iTunes.
