(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, January 02, 2014 ) St. Paul, MN -- MAC Music Accessories-sponsored indie punk band, The Manchester Social Club has struck a chord with punk/indie music lovers with it's first full length album, Soapbox Standards. The numbers tell the story:
#19 spot nationally on The CMJ Radio Top ADDs charts in its first week of distribution #1 Indie Punk band in the band's home town of Santa Barbara, California #48 Indie Punk band in the U.S. #75 Indie Punk band in the world
And the album was just released three weeks ago!
Blending American and British indie punk/alternative, The Manchester Social Club (TMSC) has been compared with Social Distortion, Green Day and Dropkick Murphys. Fronted by Nate Beck, The Manchester Social Club kicks off its tour at the legendary First Avenue/7th Street Entry in Minneapolis, MN on January 12, 2014, followed by Santa Barbara CA in February, Austin TX for SXSW in March and back to L.A. and Orange County CA for spring gigs.
TMSC's "Soapbox Standards" tells the story of the many different Americas that only a punk band would know intimately and expose proudly. From every angst-ridden teen's anthem "Rude Boy" to the life-lived-on-big-city-streets story told in "Sidewalk Prophets" and the anti-establishment challenge of modern-day big government in "One by One" with lyrics like "…you and me versus Washington DC" and "One by one we're done; 1600 Penn won." TMSC is true to the spirit of punk music. Rebellion. Angst. Anti-authoritarianism.
Fans can listen for free to three of The Manchester Social Club songs on ReverbNation or tune in to their local indie radio station. The tunes are also available for sale on iTunes.
