This Rochester, NY based band isn't one for making depressing music for the emo masses. Their "Life and happiness" inspired songs are upbeat and fun to dance to, as well as make you laugh, if you listen to the lyrics. As vocalist Izzy said, "Too many lives are a birth date and a death date. Nothing in between." They decided that "[they] were all tired of sad depressing music and wanted to make people smile. [They] wanted to make a difference in the world," and one listen is all it takes to be seriously hooked on their awesome sound. Take a listen, you won't be disappointed.
