Dispatch Celebrates Release of America, Location 12 at Newbury Comics Dispatch Celebrates Release of America, Location 12 at Newbury Comics It’s hard to pin down another act from New England that has had more success than the indie-roots band Dispatch over the past 20 years. Their initial final concert in 2004 at the Hatch Shell in Boston was attended by over 160,000 people, the biggest crowd an independent act had played for at the time. They have had a few subsequent reunions and since 2011 the trio of Chadwick Stokes Urmston, Pete Heimbold and Brad Corrigan have been back at it while still venturing through their various side projects. The band’s sixth studio album America, Location 12 is being put out to the masses on June 2 and they celebrated its release with a mini-tour of three Newbury Comics stores on June 3. The stops on the tour included the shop in the Providence Place mall, Norwood, MA and Manchester, NH. “We’re wicked psyched to have America, Location 12 finally out and to be playing some of the tunes at Newbury Comics,” Urmston says about the album’s release and the unique expedition. “Providence has always been good to us. We recorded our album Bang Bang just a few miles south at Lakewest Recordings, and some of our favorite shows took place in the old Lupo’s Heartbreak Hotel.” The new album is Dispatch’s first release in five years, following 2012’s Circles around the Sun. It’s a return to form for the band with their trademark mix of acoustic and electric tunes that are adorned with harmonies and political undertones. Tracks like “Be Gone” are rhythmic anthems that encompass a triumphant vibe. “Skin The Rabbit” is a rough and rugged song that examines how people of authority prey on others for their own gain. An acoustic gem that’s an excellent example of Urmston’s poignant lyrics is “Ghost Town;” it’s stripped down and genuinely honest.

  • Brad Corrigan (Vocals, Drums, Guitar) / Pete Francis (Vocals, Guitar, Bass)
    Chad Stokes (vocals, guitar, bass) / Brad Corrigan (vocals, drums, guitar) / Pete Francis (vocals, guitar, bass) “We’ve been called the biggest band nobody’s ever heard of,” says Brad Corrigan, one of Dispatch’s three singers and multi-instrumentalists. "People either know everything about us or they know nothing. There never seems to be any middle ground." How Corrigan, Chad Stokes, and Pete Francis met in college, formed a band, and — with no radio airplay, major-label support, or significant press coverage — became one of the biggest draws on the live music scene, and arguably the biggest independent rock band in history, is a remarkable story. Though Dispatch hadn’t released a full-length album since 2000, and even officially called it quits in 2004, its music continued to capture the hearts and minds of new generations of rock fans through pure word-of-mouth. A 2004 farewell show at the Hatch Shell in Boston drew 110,000 people, including fans from Europe, South America, and Australia. Not one, but three 2007 shows at New York City’s Madison Square Garden sold-out immediately. A 2009 all-acoustic show, held at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., at the request of Zimbabwe's prime minister Morgan Tsvangirai, sold out in less than two minutes. Having repaired their friendships and reconciled the issues that led to their break-up, Dispatch regrouped for a sold-out U.S. tour last June that included three shows at Boston’s fabled TD Garden Arena, three shows at Red Rocks in Colorado, and the first-ever concert at New Jersey’s 25,000-seat Red Bull Arena.

  • Wärme Und Andere Gute Gefühle Dispatch in Der Ausverkauften Faust in Hannover
    Dispatch in der ausverkauften 60er-Jahre-Halle des Kulturzentrums Faust in Hannover: Sänger und Gitarrist Chad Umston gibt den lautstark singenden Fans ihren Einsatz. Wärme und andere gute Gefühle Dispatch in der ausverkauften Faust in Hannover 17. September 2017, Von: Andreas Haug, Foto(s): Jeff Kahra Beim Konzert der US-amerikanischen Band Dispatch am gestrigen Samstagabend im Kulturzentrum Faust in Hannover war die ausverkaufte 60er-Jahre-Halle so etwas wie ein Kleinod in der alternativen Konzertszene der Leinemetropole. Wo sonst lautstarker, kraftstrotzender Rock, Metal, Punk, Hardcore und HipHop mit zahlreichen wie regelmäßigen Veranstaltungen in der Stadt sehr stark präsent sind, ist die Mischung aus Rock, Folk, Country und Reggae mit multikulturellem Einfluss, wie sie Dispatch darbieten, schon eine eher seltene Ausnahme. Ein außergewöhnliches Konzert in einem Umfeld voller Wärme und positiver Energie. Die politisch und sozial engagierte Band um Sänger und Gitarrist Chad Umston, Sänger und Bassist Pete Francis Heimbold und Schlagzeuger und Sänger Brad Corrigan ist fast schon so etwas wie ein Phänomen. In ihrem Heimatland strömen zu manchen Konzerten Zehntausende. Dreimal füllte man den berühmten Madison Square Garden in New York zu einem Benefiz Konzert für Simbawe, zu ihrem vorübergehenden Abschied 2004 traten Dispatch beim Independent Festival in Boston vor mehr als 100.000 Menschen auf. In Deutschland spielte die Band vor einigen Jahren sporadisch Club-und Festivalgigs und brachte nach fünfjähriger Veröffentlichungspause in diesem Sommer das Album „American, Location 12“ heraus. Auf dem eigenen Label und ohne, dass dafür auf breiter Basis Werbung gemacht wurde. Kein Einstieg in die deutschen Charts, aber das treue Publikum und einige Musikkenner mit speziellem Geschmack reagieren sofort auf Konzertankündigungen von Dispatch und besorgen sich 17.
