Long Island, NY (Top40 Charts/ Island Music Lab) With a busy summer set, lead singer Ryan Cullinane is ready to greet the world, as he states, *this is my hello.*
On Tuesday May 15thrd, 2011, indie-rock formal, Given Human Attributes, will kick off the official release of their debut LP, Critical Mass, with a live in-store performance at world-renowned, Looney Tunes Record Store on Long Island. With their first two singles, *(Give 'em) What They Want* and *Dimensions* finding regular New York radio rotation and creating a buzz in the college community, GHA and production label Island Music Lab have much to be excited about. *There has been more then just effort spilled into this pot,* explains management, *and we cannot wait to give back to those who have been so patient with the project.*
The ten(and a half)track album will feature a special touch for listeners. Explained as *when patience pays off,* according to producer and song-writer Scott Byrne, *the element of this album that is unique is the transitions make you think. You'll find the experience relative to a live performance.* Fans will go *gha-gha* for G.H.A. when they embark on their Northeastern tour this summer. From June to September you'll be able to visit, watch and/or request them at your city.
