A new “boy band” called Allstar Weekend has an album that was released today, June 21, 2010.
I like their music. It’s very catchy and the type of stuff I can see me playing in the car on summer road trips. I also think it’s something that my kids and I can both agree on (how often does THAT happen? Ha ha).
A little more than a year ago the members of Allstar Weekend – Zach, Cameron, Nathan and Michael – were passing out flyers outside the premiere of Jonas Bothers: The 3-D Concert Experience, hoping to be discovered. Today, after a whirlwind year of writing, recording, and touring, the band is releasing their debut album Suddenly on Hollywood Records.
Citing influences from from blink-182 to Prince, Allstar Weekend enlisted the help of three heavy-hitting producers to capture their sound: Howard Benson (Daughtry, My Chemical Romance), John Feldmann (Goldfinger, Good Charlotte), and S*A*M & Sluggo (Cobra Starship, Metro Station). High energy pop-punk from start to finish, Suddenly is already #5 on the iTunes Rock Chart and features the smash singles “A Different Side of Me,” which hit number one on the Radio Disney Countdown, and “Dance Forever,” the
video for which debuted at number two on the iTunes video chart.The album is available in stores and
online now. Walmart is offering an exclusive version featuring three live performances, while fans who have already downloaded “A Different Side of Me” and “Dance Forever” can complete their album on iTunes for under $5!You can visit
