Thanx 4 the add How did you find me? Let me know what you think of the music. I have a few artists that might be interested about your events. If you want to get back to me with more information, i can arrange it.
'Broken Record Tactics' is a fun little record for fans of Cartel and The Starting Line. If you're in the mood for some chirpy, melodic pop-punk with a bit of a rockier edge, you could do a lot worse than to check them out.' - Punktastic.com
I hope you don’t mind this promotional message, we promise it will be the last one for a while :-)
