Progressive Rock Band Mile Marker Zero to Release Third Full Length Album “Coming of Age” on October 4, 2024
“Coming of Age” is the third full length album from Progressive Rock Band Mile Marker Zero. Following up on their previous album “The Fifth Row”, Mile Marker Zero has shifted from a concept album focused on technology about the exponential growth of AI, to a more human reflection on growing up and the nostalgic experiences of childhood. 
“Coming of Age” is eight tracks of new music which is the band’s most mature material to date. To go with the theme of nostalgia, the full album was only released in physical form (CD) on July 6, 2024. The band played a hugely successful album release show and made the album available only via live shows, their website and Bandcamp. 
Throughout 2024, Mile Marker Zero released three singles to all streaming platforms: “Best Is Yet To Come”, “Towns to Grow Up In” and an edited version of “Bizarre”. The songs were well received, helping the band reach nearly 30,000 monthly listeners on Spotify at the time of release. The album will now be released via all streaming platforms on October 4, 2024.
Mile Marker Zero, has garnered a dedicated fan base and achieved remarkable milestones since the band’s formation. With their dynamic sound and captivating storytelling, they’ve made a lasting impact on the music scene. Their last studio album, The Fifth Row, has resonated with listeners worldwide through strategic projects. Mile Marker Zero’s song “The Architect” was featured in the acclaimed “NASCAR Heat 4” video game, introducing their music to a wide audience of racing enthusiasts. Furthermore, the band broke new ground as the first unsigned artist to be featured in the popular Harmonix/MTV Games video game series, Rock Band, which enjoyed massive success on the Xbox platform. Through their unwavering commitment to musical excellence and their ability to connect deeply with listeners, Mile Marker Zero continues to push boundaries and carve their own path in rock.
With “Coming of Age” they are widening that path and reaching ever-growing audiences. The band features Dave Alley (Vocals), John Tuohy (Guitars), Mark Focarile (Keyboards), Jaco Lindito (Bass) and Doug Alley (Drums). Mile Marker Zero is from New Haven, Connecticut, USA , and has shared the stage with diverse artists such as Porcupine Tree, Riverside, Periphery, Underoath, Spocks Beard, Adrenaline Mob and many others. They have also performed at RosFest and Progstock Festivals. 
Says Mark, “Our hope is that these songs strike a personal chord with listeners, bringing their own life experiences to the surface. We want this music to take them back to moments that mattered and in the end shaped who they've become. We're incredibly excited to let this music out into the wild, and look forward to everyone experiencing it.”

“Mile Marker Zero’s dynamic mix of a modern Steven Wilson/Riverside gloss built upon classic Rush and Yes influences has the necessary bite to engage, and enough creative decisions to earn your attention.” - Progressive Subway
“Cool prog flourishes throughout the record...but grounded in the great melodic rock style.” - Nathan on Shuffle
“These five Americans know how to write expansive, exciting and at the same time outrageously catchy songs” - Powemetal.de
To support their new release, the band will focus on playing shows regionally through the rest of this year and doing festivals and broader touring next year.
Says Mark, “Our hope is that listeners hear these songs and they resonate within their own life experiences. We hope the sounds and imagery connect them to a time and place in their lives which made a lasting impact. Looking back can help propel you forward with an inspired view to find better days ahead.”
