Decatur, IL’s Icon For Hire have released a new video for Off With Her Head, which comes from the band’s 2011 debut Scripted. The video can be seen below.

The group spent two days in Compton, CA [South Los Angeles] working with some of the hottest underground artists to create an otherworldly interpretation of the song. Frontwoman and fashion designer Ariel said recently, “We are pushing the boundaries, creatively and visually, to create a fashion-forward work that we can’t wait to share with our fans.”

The band caught the attention of Tooth & Nail Records in 2009 and signed later that year. The group then released, Scripted, in 2011 which shattered first week sales becoming the highest new artist debut in Tooth & Nail‘s history.

In support of Scripted, Icon For Hire has spent the past 18 months touring around the world.

Currently, the group is writing a new record for Summer 2013.

Female fronted and hailing from Decatur, IL, Icon For Hire is comprised of Ariel (vocals) Shawn Jump (guitar) and Adam Kronshagen (drums). Since 2007, the band has been establishing their strong following by touring extensively across the nation. From the beginning, the band has written music with a positive view without downplaying the hardships in life. They released their Tooth & Nail Records’ label debut Scripted in 2011. This release debuted on the Billboard Top 200, at No. 4 on the iTunes Rock chart and No. 19 on the iTunes overall albums chart. They were also the iTunes Discovery Download artist for their street week. Not only has the band been successful with sales and touring, they have been featured in publications like Revolver Magazine, J-14, Alternative Press, Decoy Music and Campus Circle. Ariel also has a fashionista side as she has her own Etsy store where she sells clothes and accessories she makes. The band sports her fashion creations on tour as well.
