Friday Feature: The Here And Now

The Here And Now

–Fool-hardy power pop/ rock–

Josh Lawrence
Ryan Perez
Adam Chin
Max Wrye
Joe Vidunas

Seeing these guys last Tuesday night at The Garage in Burnsville, MN was definitely a surprise!  And by surprise I mean TREAT!  Opening for Lights Out Dancing, who knew exactly how to throw down a dance party, The Here And Now made quite an impact on me with their Taking Back Sunday performance quality and their catchy harmonies.

Having a new album tentatively dropping in December called “What You Live For,” these guys really should grab your attention.  Their sound is really strong instrumentally with poppy pounding.

Best track: “Under The Influence”

Forming in Feb. 2009, Lawrence explains, “We really want to do this for a living, make our music heard.”

Take Josh’s advice and give them a listen!

  1. I really like the ending quote. This was short, snappy piece that was fun to read :)

  2. Again, I like how you related the band to another for comparison. How do you find all of these local bands? You are so up to date on the local music scene!
