Copeland is a pop rock group, originating in the city of Lakeland, Florida. Originally formed in from Ev Angel 2000 by singer Aaron Marsh (who also plays the guitar, mellotron, organ, and piano) with his friend, bassist and backup singer James Likeness and Thomas Blair on Guitar. Guitarists, Bryan Laurenson and brother Stephen Laurenson (joined in late 2006), and Jon Bucklew, drummer (who took the place of Rusty, ex-drummer of Copeland and drummer on Beneath Medicine Tree) give the band an original feel that makes Copeland what they are. In 2002, they signed a record deal with independent label The Militia Group and released their debut album Beneath Medicine Tree a year later. They operate out of Atlanta, Georgia and have a calm, pop-rocky sound. In 2004, 2005, and 2006 they performed at the annual Cornerstone Florida Festival in Orlando, Florida. In Motion, Copeland’s second full length CD, was released on March 22, 2005. Eat, Sleep, Repeat, Copeland’s third full length album, was released on October 31, 2006. Major label Columbia Records signed the band in late 2006.

Beneath Medicine Tree features a heavy medical theme. Aaron Marsh admits that the lyrics in this album were inspired by the hospitalisation of his girlfriend and the death of his grandmother. The album booklet includes photographs by James Likeness of hospital scenes.

On November 20, 2007 Copeland released Dressed Up & in Line a B-Sides and fourth full length album.

Lead singer Aaron Marsh has lent his voice to other bands such as Underoath on their album They’re Only Chasing Safety, Anberlin on Cities and Lydia on their upcoming album, Illuminate.

October 13th eh? Where do people come up with these dates? Just pull it out of their ass and say it? Seriously. They haven't released any news on their website, forums, or myspace about a new album. The most Aaron has said is that he is catching up watching Prison Break or some other TV show. =/ Copeland does kick ass though. =)

I don't really believe Copeland are releasing a new album so soon. I have seen no information whatsoever on that.

they aren't breaking up their 4th full length is coming out on October 13th and I'm assuming a US tour will follow that, so don't worry if you don't hear any new news by mid November then get concerned but until then keep it calm

aaron was an original member of Anchor & Braille with Stephen Christian of Anberlin but then decided to just stick with Copeland (which was a smart choice)....Medicine Tree is one of the best CDs EVER made
