Produced by Matt Grabe (The Maine, A Rocket to the Moon), the album has additional production by Matt Squire (3OH!3, Taking Back Sunday, Panic at the Disco) and also features a track co-written with Dave Katz and Sam Hollander (Metro Station, Boys Like Girls, and Gym Class Heroes). The infectious sound of The Summer Set's power hooks, swirling synth lines, and catchy lyrics is apparent on the first single "Chelsea," which is currently available on iTunes.
The Summer Set has toured with bands including Sing It Loud, We Shot The Moon, Everybody Else, Mercy Mercedes, The Pink Spiders. The band is currently on tour with A Rocket To The Moon through mid October, and then will head out in support of Cartel through the month of November.
The band formed in 2007, when brothers Stephen and John Gomez, still in high school at the time, decided to start a band with local friends Brian Dales, Jess Bowen and Josh Montgomery. Before they even graduated, the young band self-released their first two EPS and sold over 20,000 copies of both to date. The Summer Set's music has quickly created a large following for this young band with over 7.5 million plays and over 2 million profile views on MySpace.
