FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, PLEASE

New York, NY (July 28, 2011) – The music video for “Rise Above 1,” the first single from the album Music From SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark, is now available to view on Vevo. Directed by Aaron Platt and Joseph Toma and shot in New York City, the video includes a look into the making of the Broadway musical SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark, including Reeve Carney training for his roles as “Peter Parker/Spider-Man.”

The single, produced by Alex Da Kid, is available on the album Music From SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark out now on Interscope.

SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark features creative consultation by Philip William McKinley (The Boy From Oz), original direction by Tony® Award-winner Julie Taymor (The Lion King, Across The Universe, Frida), music and lyrics by 22-time Grammy® Award-winners Bono and The Edge, and book co-written by Taymor, Glen Berger (Underneath The Lintel) and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (Fantastic Four and Spider-Man comics, “Big Love”).

Inspired by over 40 years of Marvel comic books, SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark follows the story of teenager Peter Parker, whose unremarkable life is turned upside-down when he's bitten by a genetically altered spider and wakes up the next morning clinging to his bedroom ceiling. This bullied science-geek suddenly endowed with incredible powers soon learns, however, that with great power comes great responsibility as villains put both his physical strength and strength of character to the test.
