One day I was sitting at my computer doing homework while looking up bands on the center of music now, Myspace. I had found this amazing band called NeverShoutNever!. While listening to this rad band I looked through their music profile and found out the band was run by one guy who didn’t even have a record deal. I was so impressed but how many plays he had gotten on his music and wondered how he was getting that many hits without a record deal. Myspace is really spreading the word about amazing bands. One of my favorite bands Children 18:3 was found on Myspace and signed to a record deal because of their circulation. NeverShoutNever! has appeared on MTV and their music video is being played on MTV’s music countdowns. He said “If it weren’t for Myspace and my amazing fans I would not have made it this far.” The only reason he made it to the video countdown was because of the overwhelming amount of votes he got on the online contest. The people who voted for him were the fans who have found him on Myspace. Christofer never expected to get this popular. During high school he recorded his own music on the side and put it up but he never thought people would really listen to it. He said he was kind of a loner in high school, which is very surprising when you meet him; he’s a very lovable and outgoing kid. Since he felt like he didn’t fit in he decided to quit school to pursue his music. One day when I was sitting in my photography class telling my friends about NeverShoutNever! A girl in my class, Sara Hurt, yelled that she loves them. I was extremely surprised; I didn’t think anyone would have heard of them. She heard of them through Myspace. She likes that not that many people know about them, she kind of likes obscure bands. That’s what I like most about NeverShoutNever!. I never listen to the popular bands, it makes the music seem more real when they aren’t in the public eye.
