MySpace Act of the Week: Uh-Oh explosion
Sound is…
Members… Warped tour- 50 concerts. 50 locations. 2 months. 1 great opportunity to make it big. As most musicians will tell you, one of the key elements to having a successful band is being able to promote yourself; to get out there; to get noticed. Warped tour and other festivals like it present a way to go from a small local band, to an international sensation. The only problem, of course, is making it onto the tour. While most bands would have given up hope when they did not get booked, Orange County natives Uh-Oh explosion decided that they were not going to take no as an answer. Instead, they are attending every warped tour show, and both promoting their band and entertaining fans, as well as selling quite a few copies of thier latest album, "For The Win", which was released in June. Boasting a dance-friendly alt-punk sound, bubblegum pop lyrics, and hair that defys gravity, Uh-Oh Explosion knows what they need to make it big in the music industry. And with a fan base that grows every day, they also know that they have exactly what it takes. |
