The Real You
The Real You is a piano-driven Pop/Rock four-piece from Seattle, WA. Since their conception in early 2007 they have not only toured relentlessly, but have also achieved many notable accomplishments for an unsigned act. After 2 self-booked full US tours, 2 self-booked West Coast runs, and a short stint in Hawaii with Lifehouse, The Real You were asked to participate in the annual South-by-Southwest music conference in Austin, TX. For 3 nights they showcased their unique style of blending catchy hooks with a fresh take on the Pop/Rock genre. The Real You were also asked to perform at this years annual Sundance Film Festival in Park City, UT to give movie fans a chance to get out of their seats and rock! With their new EP "Better Now Than Never" produced by Jim Wirt (Jack's Mannequin, The Rocket Summer) coming out in December, only time will tell the big things in store for these guys!

The Scene Aesthetic
After being friends for a short period of time, Eric Bowley and Andrew de Torres got together in January of 2005 to write a song, which later became Beauty in the Breakdown. They realized its potential immediately and headed to the studio to record the single. With catchy guitar riffs and dueling vocals, it became an instant success among the online communities of Myspace and Purevolume.
Over the course of the next year, the boys continued writing. In the winter of 2005-2006, they had enough material to record their full length record. They teamed up with producers Tom Pfaeffle and Brandon Metcalf for the job.
Throughout the year, the band has played shows all over the country, with independent promoters flying them nationwide to play. Now, nearing 2 million plays on myspace, the band has more touring plans in support of their new record, “Building Homes From What We’ve Known.”
There are high expectations set by these two. Be sure to stay in touch, and keep your eyes on this band. We're excited to see what the future has in store.
