Summerlin

So summerlin are one of those bands that came from nowhere and just can't be stopped! From the very beggining they've had nothing but success and have amassed a huge group of dedicated fans!

They play that type of catchy as fuck pop punk that's absolutely perfect for this time of year; happy and light sounding perfect for listening to when you're bevvying at a BBQ.

Recently Summerlin went into the studio and recorded their debut EP, "So make your move", which is yet unreleased so you'll have to listen to their MySpace until then!

We recently caught up with Jake from Summerlin...

So, how about you start by describing your sound for anyone who's yet to hear you!

I'd describe us as catchy pop punk. Love songs you can dance too haha. We are just fun bouncy pop punk music.

For a band that is relatively new to the scene (less than a year?) your success just seems to be never ending! To what do you attribute such a success?

They are kind words so thank you. We just work hard and make sure we write really good songs that we love and that we think people will love. We had some amazing help off our drummers dad Ron Broad and we are extremely grateful.

And do you guys have any specific goals for the band in 2009?

Our next goal we have is the release of the e.p 'so make your move' and get that out there. After that i'd say just tour, tour, tour and write new music and continue just having a sweet time. We would love to hit up a sweet tour with bands such as all time low or you me at 6

Why should our readers come to see you live?

Becasue we just love to dance haha We try our hardest to put on a good energetic fun show. People will see us fall over, people will hear our wireless packs turn off, people will hear us try be funny and prance about onstage but its just fun. We love performing live and nothing beats that.

What has been your favourite moment as a part of Summerlin so far?

Possibly recording our first release 'so make your move' we worked so hard to get the songs as they are now and we are soo proud. We went through so much hassle and crap trying to find members in the begining that now it just seems so amazing to have an actual cd. Also a HUGE highlight was been featured on BBC radio 1 on the show 'switch' w/ Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw, it was amazing!

Lately I've decided to slip in a cheesy question as much as possible, something you'd findin smash hits magazine so here is yours...What I think all the girls out there really want to know is are you guys all single?

We do all have girlfriends sorry to dissapoint except Ben he's the single one but i dont think any of them would care about Ben really hahaha

Ladies?

And finally, the question we're asking every band; which bands/artists (apart from yourselves)do you see big things happening for in the future?

Bands such as Me Vs Hero and Tonight is goodbye are all sweet.

Cheers lads!
