Punchline's New CD "Just Say Yes" In Stores Today!

Punchline's New CD Just Say Yes is in stores today!

Over the years the Steel City quartet has continued to build a loyal legion of fans who proudly call themselves "Punchkids." After successful tours with bands such as Fall Out Boy, Coheed and Cambria, Good Charlotte, Brand New and Sum 41, Punchline's brand of catchy, upbeat alt-pop has never sounded better than on Just Say Yes!

After making the tough decision to part ways with their previous label (Casa de Wentz aka Fueled By Ramen) in order to break out from the shadow of that label's current stable of pop punk poster boys, Punchline got the boost they needed to forge ahead after winning a $25,000 grand prize from Heavy.com where their videos, over the four-month contest period, were streamed online almost 1.2 million times. In classic DIY fashion, they used the prize money to fund the recording of Just Say Yes and to launch their own label, Modern Short Stories.

Pittsburgh Punchkids should note the band's hometown CD release show will be September 27 at Diesel Club Lounge. The band is also scheduled to play a series of free in-store acoustic sessions this week, the first of which takes place tonight at Looney Tunes Record Store (31 Brookvale Ave) in West Bablyon, NY. Fans can also catch the band performing at FYE stores in Philadelphia on 9/17 (100 SOUTH BROAD STREET) and Pittsburgh on 9/18 (100 ROBINSON CENTER DR STE 1490) as well as at Hot Topic (Colonial Park Mall) in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on 9/19 (see full itin. below).

Just Say Yes was produced by Jamie Woolford (The Format, Gin Blossoms) and Sean O'Keefe (Fall Out Boy, Hawthorne Heights, Plain White T's).
