Get Active
From: Los Angeles, California, United States
For a band from sun kissed Los Angeles The Active Set sound (and look if the picture on the left is how they typically dress) remarkably British. This may be the influence of lead guitarist Wayne Russell who dropped out of university in rain soaked England to move to the sun of Los Angeles (sensible chap). Or it may be that their influences are predominantly British.
The foursome's subtly poetic, cheery power pop sounds like a less angular Bloc Party sunbathing in the LA sun with a less arty XTC. It's a 180 degree change in direction from the full on Clash mimicking punk of lead singer and bassist Matthew Stolarz previous band The Briggs.
The band have their new single 'Let The Games Begin' out now which, if you're reading Lord Coe, would be a great theme tune for the London 2012 Olympic Games. Check it out below or by visiting the Active Set website.
It's time to get active with the Active Set.
