LOS ANGELES (Top40 Charts/ Summer Set Official Wesbite) - Today pop-punk rockers The Summer Set's first full length album Love Like This (Razor & Tie) is in stores and the video for the first single "
Chelsea" debuts on MySpace Music. The band is set to kick off a fall tour with
Cartel and This Providence on October 22 that will run through late November (full tour dates below).
Produced by Matt Grabe (The Maine, A Rocket to the Moon), Love Like This has additional production by Matt Squire (3OH!3, Taking Back Sunday, Panic at the Disco) and also features a track co-written with Dave Katz and Sam Hollander (Metro Station, Boys Like Girls, and Gym Class Heroes).
The Scottsdale Arizona The Summer Set formed in 2007 when brothers Stephen and John Gomez, still in high school at the time, decided to start a band with local friends Brian Dales, Jess Bowen and Josh Montgomery. The young bands music has quickly created a large fanbase selling over 20,000 copies of their first two independently released EPs and an online following with over 7.5 million plays and over 2 million profile views on MySpace. They have spent the last few years touring with bands including The Cab, Sing It Loud, We Shot The Moon, Everybody Else, Mercy Mercedes, and The Pink Spiders.
