hello. (:
ages / birthdates: michael was born on august 11, 1979. he's currently 32. andrew was born on november 23, 1979. he's 32, as well. jason was born on september 2, 1978. he's 33. alex is 25, born on may 21, 1986.
hometowns: michael and jason's hometown is rockland, ny. andrew is from upstate new york. alex is from teaneck, nj.
schools: michael attended new york university and clarkstown north high school. jay attended berklee college of music and clarkstown north. alex attended wagner college and eastern christian high. i'm not quite sure about andy..
alex with jonas: alex was with the jonas brothers from may 2005 - thanksgivings day 2006.
meeting: mike and jay met in high school through an art class. andy met them through mutual college friends while alex became a member when kat heard they needed a drummer after their former drummer, kevin rice, left the band. they had him audition and loved how great he sounded, instantly asking him to become a member.
labels: they were first signed by fair isle records in 2008, recording 'a tale of risky business'.
they were then signed to 'jonas records' in the next year, recording 'fashionably late'. the record found out about them due to alex giving the jonas brother's the ep. the three members loved hs' sound and decided to sign them.
soon, the next year, 2010, they decided to part with 'jonas records', wanting to find their own sound, without having to be restricted from anything that they desired to write. for a few months, they were without a record. they actually were going to release 'a tale of risky business: part 2', without being under a label. though, they were contacted by their old manager (at the time); ned specktor and they became signed by 'fair isle records', once again.
awards: no, they haven't won any awards. though, they were named "buzzworthy" by mtv in 2009. they were also featured on mtv's top 10 at #6 in 2010. in spring 2009, rolling stone magazine named them one of the 'breakout bands to watch'.
radio stations: they are sometimes played on our radios, every so often. currently, they are being played on the radio station sirius xm on their 20 on 20. they've been played on there for about two months and are played many times a week.
popularity: they have fans in places like argentina and japan. though, no, currently, they are more of a not very well known band.
they're usually noticed by word of mouth. a lot of their fans became their fans through jonas brothers. facebook, twitter, other musicians have been a huge help with their fame.
television: they have had around 15 tv showings. six times singing the national anthem during baseball games in 2010, an episode on 'silent library', two performances on 'skate for the heart' in 2010 (same event), singing the national anthem at the nfl pro bowl in 2010, performing on jimmy kimmel live in 2009, performance on the cbs early show in 2009 and presenting an award on 'the teen choice awards' in 2009. currently, they are not popular on any channels, any of yet.
