Align in Time: Energetic and inspiring instrumental alternative rock.


Align in Time is the solo project of composer and guitarist John Russell Boles. His debut release, Me and My Arrow, was written over the course of six years before being recorded during the summer of 2011 with producer Bryan Russell (The Academy Is..., Envy on the Coast, Straylight Run), additional tracking by Mike Poorman (The Receiving End of Sirens, Therefore I Am, drummer of Hot Rod Circuit) and mastering by Mike Kalajian (Moving Mountains, Ace Enders).

The album is an amalgam of styles and moods, equal parts rock anthem and film score. It is the story of an individual experience, instantly accessible to listeners across genre boundaries and distinctions.

Based out of Washington, DC, Boles assembled a full band to take Align in Time on an East Coast tour, the first time the music had been played live, in the summer of 2012. After receiving numerous stellar reviews for both Me and My Arrow (including being selected as one of AbsolutePunk's albums of the year for 2011) and the band's live show, Boles has plans to make a music video and is actively looking to book another tour in early 2013.
