The hardest-working, hottest young rock band in Southern California – ACIDIC – is at it again! They’re releasing their biggest, best, rockiest, rowdiest, and most critically- acclaimed album yet on March 19, 2013. The CD Copper Man is produced by multi- platinum award-winner John Ryan of Chicago Kid Productions (Styx, Santana, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Badfinger, Allman Brothers). Motley Crue’s Nikki Sixx kicked off February on his nationally-syndicated radio Side Show by naming Copper Man his “Sixx Pick of the Week”! ACIDIC kicked off 2013 with a new distribution deal with SONY/RED through a special arrangement with MegaForce Records. They’re now on the road on an ambitious tour schedule coast-to-coast with Trapt, and the just-announced national tour with Hinder, to support Copper Man.

ACIDIC led up to this point with a smash 2012 national tour schedule supporting Candlebox and Fuel, plus their summer hometown triumph headlining a packed show at the legendary Doug Weston’s Troubadour. ACIDIC’s previous CD, Chronic Satisfaction,” also produced by John Ryan, was released in Autumn 2011 to wild and enthusiastic response! The first single, “Uninspired,” got airplay on FM and internet rock stations across the U.S. and Canada. Chronic Satisfaction helped inspire Music Reviews to name ACIDIC one of its “12 Bands to Watch in 2012.” ACIDIC has also toured with such heavy hitters as Alien Ant Farm, Hawthorne Heights, Filter, and Marcy Playground, and performed in Kosovo and Germany, rocking US troops with Armed Forces Entertainment. ACIDIC has been featured at such prestigious gigs as the 2012 Winter NAMM Show at the Anaheim Convention Center; SXSW ’10, ‘11, and ’12; Florida Music Festival ’12; two Sunset Strip Music Festivals; and Bamboozle Left. ACIDIC won the Alternative category in the 18th Billboard WorldWide Song Contest in 2011 for their power rocker “Strata Red.” ACIDIC consists of lead singer/guitarist Michael Gossard, bassist Ted Dubrawski, and drummer Matt Whitaker. The band tours and records as a four-piece with guest guitarists.
