Unsigned Showcase: My Favorite Highway

[Jason Tate]

People often ask me who my favorite unsigned band is, and with Sherwood recently getting signed, the torch has been passed to My Favorite Highway (http://www.absolutepunk.net/myfavoritehighway). We've put together a very special ABSOLUTExclusive and our first ever "Unsigned Showcase" (dedicated to getting the band signed and to highlighting this band here on AP.net). If you check out their AP profile (http://www.absolutepunk.net/myfavoritehighway) you'll find 4 previously unreleased songs streaming for your listening pleasure. ATTN: Record labels - listen up, sign this band.

I've been following these guys for awhile now. I'm surprised they aren't signed yet, but they are doing great things musically.

[average_jane]

Great guys, great band. Jason, thank you so much for showcasing these boys - they deserve it more than anyone.

[Bruycker]

This really sounds good, more then just good

[CalamityRecords]

All my friends in bands in the area keep talking about how nice these guys are. I've yet to meet them, but they sound pretty good. They were *this close* to playing a show with us tonight, too. Bummer...

[YourMusicSucks]

Wow, that band is awesome. This website never ceases to be awesome.

They sound like decaydence/FBR should be jumping through hoops to sign them.

[SimpleFriction]

Yes I love My Favorite Highway! They're amazing live also. Good choice :)

[ParisInFlames55]

they'll get big. the singer has a voice similar to relient k. the music is straight up pop music. some record label will come drooling over them soon. they'll offer them lots of money, and they'll tour as they are marketed. a band like this could go in a more pop direction easily and tour with more pop star oriented acts. they could also go the other route and be the next big pop punk band to blow up and end up going on arena tours with all american rejects or relient k. either way, i guess this is where i buy in and scream i luvvvvvv this band. i'll continue being my cranky self though, and say i'm burnt out on music like this just as much as music along the lines of screamo.

[evannn]

I am digging this band. Nice rec!

I hope to someday impress Mr. Tate with my band, so we can get this kind of sweet hook up haha

[GoodbyeBlueSky]

The first song is pretty cool, then it starts getting annoying. I'm afraid the "straight pop" music needs to be reserved for those with a bit more creativity i.e. The Format, The Pale Pacific, etc... I'm sure that they'll get signed, maybe make enough money for a few years, but music like this doesn't tend to last long. It's not THAT good.

[Troy will Fall]

An Irony Massacre (http://www.myspace.com/anironymassacre) is pretty awesome. As is the escape frame (http://www.myspace.com/theescapeframe).

[backstagebethy]

yay mfh!

[knux]

Jason how can you like a band whos influences are Kelly Clarkson, your arch nemesis. :P

ps these guys are reallly really good.

[watchmyheadspin]

Come To The Dc Warped Tour And Hang Out With Them!!!
Come Visit The Merch Table If You Like Them I Want To Be Your Friend!

[ishotthepilot]

good band. unfortunately they hate my favorite song of theirs 'Counterfeit' :(
the rest of the stuff is also good though.

our first ever "Unsigned Showcase" (dedicated to getting the band signed and to highlighting this band here on AP.net).

lol. ABSOLUTPunk, manipulating thousands in a single post. i love it.

[joeshmoe909]

Love these guys so much real talented dudes with awesome songs. Would love to see these guys get bigger. Theyre a steal for any record label to pick up.

[shtjames]

i can dig on these songs..theyre certainly a little refreshing anyways

[(joeyman)]

yess these guys have been good for a while. they definitly deserve it all.

[TheVinylQueen]
