PLAYLIST: Summer Prep Fight Songs

credfm:

The weather is starting to warm up and the fine folks at Figureheads ov Pop are tuning their ears for Summer. Here’s a handful of songs that get us pumped for hot days, long nights and good times.

We made it onto a pretty cool Summer playlist (we all know Spring got skipped, ok?), along with Restorations, Swearin’, Muscle & Bone, Alkaline Trio, Paint it Black, and others! Check it out here.

Enter the Doomsday Year!

2011 has been a fun year for us. Over this past year, we went from being a small-time, “on the side” sort of project to giving serious priority to our endeavors and making an effort to construct this band into a true and constant outlet for Matt, Travis, and I. Thus, we are very excited to enter 2012 with a bunch of shows already lined up, with the likes of The Menzingers and the Ataris!

  • 1/13/12 - Charlotte, NC @ The Milestone w/ The Menzingers, the Not Likelys, Homewrecker, Young & Barren [facebook event]
  • 1/14/12 - Durham, NC @ Motorco Music Hall w/ B-Side Project, To Hell with Babe Ruth [facebook event]

  • 2/6/12 - Asheville, NC @ The Get Down w/ The Ataris, On the Take, The DiMarcos [facebook event]
