" I Am are a melodic hard rock outfit from Baltimore, Maryland. My favorite song I’ve heard from them so far is “Close My Eyes” and I felt worthy for it to be in the playlist. I enjoy the music mixed with the smooth vocal style of their lead singer and guitarist Mendi Baron. Check them out on their MySpace page. They have a full tour schedule this coming summer, starting in their home town and ending in NY with many stops in between! Maybe you’ll be able to catch As I Am in your home town. Look for them.
