   About ADVANTAGE



We are Advantage - Brass City Rockers.

From the sea of music regurgitation, like a beacon Advantage shine their light into the world with a fresh blend of pop punk, ska reggae and rock to get you moving.

'Advantage have transcended and progressed to create their own unique sound and style of Brass Rock.'

We stand by our right to do what we want and enjoy and to do what we can to break away from the monotony! Advantage were formed in March 2009.
Get on the beat !

Advantage Press Release ...

Advantage are primed to explode onto 2009’s underground music scene with the release of their self-titled debut EP through Cash For Pigs Records.

With a songwriting blueprint that blends a blistering and celebratory punk rock redolence with an effortless pop knowhow, Advantage exhibit a zeal for their music as energizing as it is compelling.

Formed in the Midlands from the ashes of ska punk outfit Grown At Home, Advantage are eschewing the syncopated rhythms of old and boldly pioneering their own genre – brass rock.

Their EP sees hook-splattered hits in waiting crafted by airtight rhythm sections, sordid distortion-laden guitars, and infectious smatterings of brass.

Having already fluttered their fledgling wings with extensive tour dates across the UK and Europe, Advantage are gaining momentum fast.

It can’t be long until this broiling concoction of big guitars and danceable brass spills over into mainstream success.

REBELLION FESTIVALS UK 2009



"A combination of a powerful brass section, driving riffs, furious percussion and a strong vocal trio, these were the hallmarks of their well constructed sound...." "It's like a chance meeting in a dancehall between Fallout boy and Less Than Jake!!" - The Metro

"Awesome and Refreshing" KKKK - Kerrang!

'Soulful and driving. 8/10' - - Rocksound

"an awesome and eclectic brand of Ska Pop Punk based anthems" - Big Cheese Magazine

"Refreshingly broad and inventive, with a new and really exciting sound. You MUST see this band." - Bananatown.co.uk

"Uniquely accessible and genuinely fun, it would take a very cold and cynical person, irrespective of musical tastes, not to get swept away by their infectious, up-tempo sound - However the real key to their success is the quality of their material – witty, well-written and expertly arranged their tracks are literally packed with hooks and unfold at a tremendous pace, delivered with really seen levels of showmanship and technical ability."
- BBC Radio 6 Introducing.

"one of the most energetic bands you could possibly hope to have the pleasure of listening to.... a truly exciting EP" - Alt-UK.com

"leaves you itching to put it on again" - The Stafford Post

"if you want to hear a band in the ascendance, buy this" - Punktastic.com

"Tonight's headliners have one thing on their mind: having fun. From the moment Advantage grace the stage, a smile adorns this six faced behemoth. The crowd banter is entertaining ("You want to hear a story? No?") and the Brass fueled Pop punk is of high quality. Favourites 'Never Say Never' and 'Kick in the Beer Can' practically have the Underworld itself jumping. The audience emulates the band with equally as big smiles and some manic dancing. " - SkaCommunity.co.uk

"get ready to dance until your feet bleed!" - KillTheNoise.net


"Whether its brass members Sam or Willis giving it some welly or Paul aka 'Cookie' on guitar going...well...fucking mental, they give ska-punk a good name and leave us feeling how we should do after a gig; sweaty, happy and like we had a damn good time. Hell yes."
-Sarah Cakebread. Big Cheese Magazine

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked the stock boy, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?'

The stock boy answered, 'No ma'am, they're dead.'
