CORE is a four time Billboard charting Rock band based in Austin Texas with roots in Las Vegas, NV and McAllen TX. The band is led by internationally renowned guitarist Chris Iorio, founding member of Adelitas Way. After Bass Player Jarrett Smith and Chris Iorio left their former project together CORE was born. Brandon Lemond would join in the early days to round out the group in the early days. The bands first two US tours with Buckcherry would lead them to the later addition of Mark Morales, former lead singer of renowned metal band Sons of Texas. Mark’s powerful vocal sound would reach the band to new heights just in time for the opportunity to record with legendary multi platinum Juno award winning producer Kane Churko. Currently working on the next era of CORE, the guys are excited to release new music again.
CORE’s music combines elements of active rock, post grunge, alt rock and classic rock influences. From hard hitting tracks to breathtaking solos and new-rock anthems, this quartet crafts catchy choruses and delivers relatable, honest lyrics accompanied by powerful guitar riffs. CORE’s refreshing and much needed style sets them apart commercially.
Their distinctive sound and image led them to secure their first national record deal with Los Angeles-based Silverstone Records USA, alongside manager Mike Quinn. CORE’s Live performances beckon back to the days of pure rock and roll, dynamic and captivating, showcasing their talent and stage presence.
CORE welcomes Mark Morlaes, formerly of Sons of Texas, as new Lead Singer
CORE welcomes new lead singer Mark Morales! After an extensive nationwide search and grueling audition process, the band has officially announced its newest member! Mark comes from the former Razor & Tie recording group Sons of Texas and we cannot be more excited to have him on board! The band is currently in the studio with legendary multi platinum producer Kane Churko. The full length album will be arriving in 2023.
