Allstar Weekend

Disney旗下的流行搖滾組合。 This foursome may be young, but they have the talent, nerve and off-the-chart charm needed to go all the way! 樂隊組成 Zach: Vocals, Guitar Nathan: Guitar, Vocals Cameron: Bass Michael: Drums Zach and Cameron have been friends since middle school, but the Allstar Weekend didn’t form until Nathan met Zach later in high school. Though a year apart, they started a string of garage bands together. "Then Zach and I decided to take our abilities somewhere else," remembers Nathan. "We wrote songs and recorded in our bedroom, then put the music up on Myspace." Not long after, first Cameron and then Michael came on board. With idols like Queen and Blink 182 in mind, the band wasted no time getting serious about their music. "It wasn’t just the artists who inspired us," recalls Zach, "but the producers. We tried to figure out how they made things sound the way they did. It was a trial and error process, and when we first met, it was our entire life. We’d sit there all day figuring out how to get certain tones out of the guitars, how producers tracked vocals, how drums were mixed." Still, they found time to perform locally and build a fan base. "Our biggest asset was our self -promotion," says Zach. "We were going out and plugging our band. It’s what got us noticed." The Walt Disney Company sure noticed. The band was chosen to participate in Radio Disney's Next Big Thing program, and the reaction was so positive, Hollywood Records grabbed them. So far, they've racked up more than 2.5 million Myspace plays and 50,000 YouTube plays for their video of Journey To The End Of My Life. In concert, Allstar Weekend has shared the stage with bands like Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez and Savanna.
