"There's this Bruce Springsteen quote that always inspired me," explains Brian Dales, frontman for The Summer Set. "He was talking about how 'Thunder Road' was the first song on 'Born to Run.' He said it was an invitation to a story. I've always held on to that thought."
There is a story - actually, a lot of stories - that went into the making of "Everything's Fine," the second album by the Scottsdale, AZ upstarts The Summer Set. It's a story about a band that made its mark as teenagers but has since grown into adulthood and faced some uncertainty along the way. It's a story about a band reinventing itself... without losing touch with what made them stars in the first place.
"Everything's Fine" presents a more nuanced story of The Summer Set. Even the sad face on the album's cover is a hint that there are several new sides to the group. "The title is a bit sarcastic," admits Gomez. "Our first record was just one emotion. "Everything's Fine" is yin and yang. We've had some ups and downs recently, some breakups, some general trials and tribulations. This is a record that says we're young, but growing up and experiencing new things. So in a way, it's optimistic, too.
Inspired by groups such as Fall Out Boy and Panic at the Disco, Las Vegas quintet the Cab was founded by then-students Alex DeLeon (vocals) and Cash Colligan (bass) in 2005 after the two met during high school. The duo began recording demos and broadcasting them via MySpace, but it quickly became evident that a complete band would be needed for them to realize their full potential. DeLeon and Colligan recruited Alex Johnson (drums), Alex Marshall (piano), and Ian Crawford (guitar), began playing shows locally, and built up a fan base before sending a demo to Panic at the Disco's Spencer Smith. Smith was so impressed with the band that he helped them sign to the Decaydance/Fueled by Ramen label in 2007. The Cab's debut album, "Whisper War," was produced by Matt Squire and released in 2008, followed by several national tours alongside the likes of Hey Monday and the Hush Sound. The band recently celebrated the release of their second album, "Symphony Soldier," in the summer of 2011.
