They’ve been lauded by people like Tommy Lee as the next gen of rock and it’s easy to see why. This L.A. band is straight up rock and roll fun, combining the best of ’70s classic rock with ’90s alt rock and a lot of fresh modern flair (even working with lauded producer Bob Rock). They are on a real trajectory so I would love to get you in on the ground floor getting behind them before they blow up.
They just released this super catchy new track “Time To Bleed” last Friday (named a track of the week by Metal Hammer):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Nq9SZeR9T4
And it’s on the heels of the killer single “This Is For You” with Justin Hawkins of The Darkness. See the off-the-walls video here and tell me this isn’t stuck in your head: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVIny0Ap1cg
Both come from their anticipated debut album coming this year from Better Noise – Vince Neil is also slated to appear on a track.

And check out why People is calling them one of the bands to know this spring: https://people.com/music/meet-the-talented-spring-2022-emerging-artists/?slide=0c5e44cd-1085-4550-aa58-a6d87090a198#0c5e44cd-1085-4550-aa58-a6d87090a198
When they released their debut single “Give It To Me” in the summer of 2021, Classless Act were immediately praised for their ability to sound both fresh and timeless. Loudwire instantly added the song to their “Weekly Wire” Spotify playlist, identifying it as one of the top new releases of the summer. And other iconic outlets, like SPIN Magazine, were early to show support. It was a fitting public introduction to a band who embody what it means to be modern rock stars.
The band – consisting of members Derek Day (Vocals), Dane Pieper (Guitar), Griffin Tucker (Guitar), Franco Gravante (Bass), and Chuck McKissock (Drums) – initially formed in 2018 after connecting and bonding virtually by their love and passion of music. Now in Los Angeles, they’ve united on a mission to be the next great generation-defining act, drawing inspiration from classic rock acts of the 70’s and alt-rock groups from the 90’s. Their music echoes the hallmarks of previous generations – anthemic rhythms, shreddy guitars, soaring vocals – but punches its way into the future with clever arrangements, sharp musicianship, and proficient songwriting.Already making noise in the industry, the band has been in the studio with world-class producers like Bob Rock, Michael Beinhorn and Joe Chiccarrelli, who have helped craft hits for the likes of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Soundgarden, and The White Stripes. The band recently landed a deal with Better Noise Music, Mediabase and Billboard’s #1 rock label for 2020. Their debut album is expected in 2022, when the band will be hitting the road with Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, and more, on their Summer Stadium Tour.
