Closing out the week with another edition of Artist Spotlight all ready for you! Today, we head across the pond to Southampton, England where we come across the vibrant pop-punk sounds of Who Needs Heroes. The band consists of Calum Stone on guitar and vocals, Chris Stone on bass and backing vocals, George Cooper on guitar and vocals, and Rhys Willis on drums. The band's sound is an intense, ear-piercing collection of tunes reminiscent of blink-182 and Taking Back Sunday with an absolutely impressive set of pipes that translates well onto the shores of American listeners who can clearly identify with the artists from our own country that have had a strong influence on these lovely lads from the U.K. I'm continually impressed each and every day with the breadth of talent coming out from England, and I'll be really anxious to see how these bands will perform when they perform here in the U.S. and see just how much their audience will grow exponentially after that, and these guys definitely fit the bill of a band just waiting in the wings to take advantage of that opportunity to have an impact on America coming up around the bend. Some songs for you to discover include "Traction" and "All That I Said".
