Last One Picked

A sonic explosion full of hooky pop/punk dealing with relevant issues with lots of youthful energy and exuberance, Last One Picked invigorates with energized emotional anthems like "So Bright (Stand Up)," a guitar-driven call to remain surefooted against life's wicked winds, and "Hero," a life-giving lesson about how even small acts can reap huge rewards in a wounded person's life.  The poetically-transparent "One and Lonely" - inspired by the inner-struggles of a girl the band met on tour - tackles the shaky insecurities in facing one's self-identity, while "Real" was written in direct response to a 12-year-old girl's letter describing the bitter pill of being young and unpopular.  On the other end of the spectrum, the punk-inspired "High School" delivers biting narrative about adults who still think life is one big popularity contest.
