DOOMTREE'S DESSA TO OPEN
P.O.S. has announced a headlining tour including 40 shows around North America starting on January 29th and ending on March 21st. The "Every Never Is Now" Tour will showcase P.O.S. doing what he does best- combining hip-hop with elements of rock and punk, creating a sound that appeals to a wide range of musical tastes and audiences and never loses its impact or focus.
The success of P.O.S.'s third full -length album, Never Better, has kept him very busy. Last year alone, he released four music videos: "Drumroll," "Optimist," "Never Better," and a cover of Pearl Jam's "Why Go." He received an MTV2 Discover and Download artist nod, performed at the MTVu Woodies and toured non-stop. His hard work grabbed the attention of multiple year-end lists, including Spin's "Top 10 Best Albums You Might Have Missed," and MySpace's Top 50. It's not too late to get hip to one of the most captivating live acts and best releases of 2009.
Supporting P.O.S. throughout the tour will be Doomtree's own Dessa. She will be touring in support of her soon to be released full length, A Badly Broken Code out January 19th on Doomtree Records.
Bios, photos, artwork and MP3's are available upon request.

"Minneapolis-based MC Stef "P.O.S." Alexander rocks intricate, thoughtful rhymes that cleverly namedrop Fugazi and AC Slater, while examining his identity crisis growing up as a black punk rocker." - SPIN
