The shores of Long Island NY are known for producing some of the most influential names in rock. TAKING BACK SUNDAY, BRAND NEW, BAYSIDE and many others have been born into notoriety out of the Long Island scene. Welcome The Sleeping, here to shake things up with and insert some sincerity and originality back into the underground rock world. After releasing their first full length album, Chicago's Victory Records immediately took notice of The Sleeping and their ever growing fan base, signing them to the roster of legendary Long Island artists including STRAYLIGHT RUN, BAYSIDE and ACTION ACTION. The Victory records debut "Questions and Answers" showcases the bands originality amidst a myriad of cleverly positioned choruses, technical breakdowns while the vocals alter between soft melodies and hair pulling screams to peak the drama and intrigue of every song along the way. The Sleeping are on tour non stop in 2006 to support Questions and Answers and will share stages with the likes of BAYSIDE, FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND & SILVERSTEIN.
