background / biography
Named a 2008 Pure Volume Top 21 Unsigned Artist, with 43k+ friends, 1.6 million+ profile views, 2.8 million+ plays, and 31k+ comments, Select Start is consistently at or near the Top of MySpace's US UNSIGNED Emotronic, Power Pop and Indie charts.
Their live show blends MOOG-infused, powerpop with rock that has been getting them recognition and "friends", not only throughout their home state of Florida, but also all across the Eastern half of the US.
Since 2006, they've completed 8 Eastern half of the US tours, and it looks like they will not be stopping any time soon.
Via MySpace, Purevolume, Broadtexter, pickrset, Stickam, Eventful, Zvents and their live webcast performances from The Talent Farm, they've added "friends" from untoured US cities and from around the world.
With their internet fan base continually growing, it's easy to see why they've been included on countless playlists and have sold over 12,000 singles on /itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=294861699&s=143441" target="_blank">iTunes, Rhapsody, and Napster.
