Artist Spotlight: Two O'Clock Courage

Starting off your week with a brand new installment of Artist Spotlight! Today, we venture down to Trumbull, CT and uncover the explosive sounds of Two O'Clock Courage. The band consists of James Davidson on lead vocals, Nate Cartier on bass, Mike Ruotolo on drums, Rico Ruotolo on guitar, and Dan Stewart on guitar. The band's music is an eclectic mixture of pop-punk rhythms faintly reminiscent of Brand New and Taking Back Sunday with an extreme emphasis put on melody and audience participation, something which is an essential ingredient for the success of any upstart band. One thing that hit me almost immediately upon first hearing their music was the genuine and heartfelt sincerity that emanates strongly from the lyrics, and you can tell that these guys feel very strongly about what they do for a living, and have a strong, resonating connection with their fans that almost feels like they are a part of the band, and contribute greatly to the overall musical makeup of the group. A terrific and promising act that is destined for greater stardom beyond the confines of their hometown. Some great tracks for you to discover include "Wyoming" and "We Were Evergreen Oldboys".

For more information on the guys in Two O'Clock Courage, head on over to their Facebook page located here and find out for yourself what these boys are all about. The gents are on Twitter as well from over here and interact with them to see if they'll be making their way to your hometown sometime soon. Their music is available for public listening consumption on their PureVolume page right here.
