London pop punks The Famous Class release their ‘Make Or Break’ EP on TFC Records on April 5 2010.

News

Press Release:
The Famous Class are on a mission to bring a little bounce, a little cheer back to the masses. From the insanely catchy first single ‘Emily’ to the driving groove of ‘Losing The Game’, each of the five tracks on their imminently released debut EP are paeans to positivity.

“Lots of bands shy-away from making upbeat music,” says frontman Stoo, “But at times like these, there is more demand than ever for something more uplifting, and we love what we do, and we hope people will hear that in our music.”

Growing up on a diet of American pop-punk, this quartet have combined this much loved sound with a distinctly British twist to create something as driving and danceable as it is infectious and melodic.

The EP will be distributed online via i-Tunes, and will include their first single ‘Emily’, which will be supported by a music video. Also CD copies will be sold via the band’s online store and the flagship Oxford Circus HMV.

The band, consisting of Stoo on vocals and guitar, Justin on bass and vocals, Ben on guitar and Joe on drums, are looking to hit the road again and travel to all four corners of the UK, in support of their debut ‘Make or Break’ EP.

The Famous Class take great pride in being a completely D.I.Y band, having total control of everything they do, from writing the music, to designing their own CD packaging and T-shirts, and making their own music video.

“We’re just four guys making music and getting it out there,” says Stoo. “There’s no label, no management. Nobody making choices for us. That gives us the freedom to be who we are and make a band that we, ourselves would want to hear”.
