Cartel

Where: House of Blues

Atlanta rockers Cartel gained significant promotional boosts from Yahoo!, MySpace, AOL, AbsolutePunk.net and PureVolume.net, leading to their successful single 'Honestly,' which in turn earned them more exposure via their music video on MTVU and Fuse. They also made the lineup on the 2006 VANS Warped Tour. No wonder Alternative Press called Cartel "a band you need to know." The Boston-area band Boys Like Girls has been able to develop a devout following by focusing on making lasting connections with its fans. "I like to listen to music that makes me feel a certain way--either it reminds me of something important that happened or a certain time in my life," says Boys Like Girls frontman Martin Johnson. "If kids are feeling that way about our songs, I couldn't ask for anything more." Cobra Starship features Johnny Depp, Dave Grohl, Ron Jeremy and Mayor McCheese.

Fall Out Boy

Where: Soma

Date: 2007-12-01 18:00:00

Type:

Drawing influences from a healthy wealth of rock, pop and hardcore, Fall Out Boy has constructed a distinctive sound of unforgettable melodies and quick stop-and-start breakdowns that mischievously flirt with clever lyrics and multi-faceted guitar hooks. Having paired off in other local combos -- Shaant and guitarist Jeff Czum in one, bassist Fred Cimato and drummer Tom Falcone in another -- Cute Is What We Aim For came together in January 2005, driven by the four members and their desire to cast their own upbeat spin onto modern pop. Plain White T's are an up-and-coming Chicago band. Along with their rapidly growing fan base in the Midwest, the band has toured the South from Texas to Arizona and played up and down California with some great bands. Melding elements of rap, rock, R&B and funk into one cohesive and melodic sound, upstate New York's Gym Class Heroes show musical some real dexterity.
