If you’re in the band Simplified, the walls of your humble abode may be hard to recall and it may be tough to sleep without the rumble of wheels beneath your head.

“We play on average about 250 shows a year. We’ve done over 1500 hundred shows in our four year life as a band, probably well over that! ” remarked Chris Sheridan in a recent interview with http://www.shutter16.com/.

Just last week, Charlotte NC’s Best Band (Best of the Best of Charlotte/Charlotte Magazine) capped a week of shows by playing with Blues Traveler at The Fillmore in Charlotte and sharing the stage with friends O.A.R at Battleship Park in Wilmington.

The band, signed last month to Rockman Management, continues to focus on the big picture.”We’re focused on developing Simplified in other marquee markets so that the band can continue to build on its momentum and play more with national acts.” says Rockman’s Paul Richards.

Simplified continues to travel and tour extensively, traveling to southeastern college campuses, venues and festivals. During rare days off, Simplified is hitting The Playroom in Fort Mill SC to write and plan their next cd, scheduled for release in spring of 2010.

This year, Simplified has been awarded The Best of the Best of Charlotte by Charlotte Magazine and was just voted Best Local Band for the second year in a row by the readers of Creative Loafing. In April, Simplified finished out the national Fender Road Worn competition as one of the top ten bands in the country based on fan votes for their video “Home”. In August, Simplified completed production of a new video for the fan favorite “Sugar Tree’ and hosted a video release party at Madisons in Charlotte.
