Who is the biggest ACM fan?

Tell us the most you can about the history of A Cursive Memory.

How did they meet? Who played what? names of old songs....old shows/ tours they did...etc.


Who knows the most, and is the most accurate? smile

Ready go!

Re: Who is the biggest ACM fan?

It started with you guys in High school before graduation.
The BriBri Bolen days.
Shaun banged on those drums and sang. While BriBri did guitar? I think.
then he left and ... was never heard from again
Then there were 3.
Then Dillan came along in 07?
Taking over the drums.
Then Shaun to guitar and still conquering vocals.
somewhere along there was some Projects... prepuberty?
toured with The High Court and Weatherbox way back when. And a few shows with hgb in spring 07.


I can put more details, but i dont want to risk being more momo.  . .

Re: Who is the biggest ACM fan?

Weeell... Colin and Shaun met and an Eighth grade birthday party and became friends. Then, they started a band called Sincerely Me with Mark and Brian. Shaun was on drums. They started covering songs and then wrote some of their own. They put out some eps which included songs like lights, camera, action, and the piano song. After a while, Bumin Murray found them randomly on purevolume. He put their songs in some commercials. Club revolution remix was in a cell phone commercial (I forget which one!).

So then they're in high school, playing some shows in california, going on tour with HelloGoodbye, and writing songs for their first album Changes. They played perfect company on The Simple Life. Theeen, brian left the band so they had another fill in for him. Shaun switches to guitar and Dillan comes in on drums.
 
Oh hey, it's times for A Cursive Memory to graduate. Instead of going to college, they made the decision to sign with vagrant records.
Their cd Changes was released February of 2008 with their extremely catchy single "Everything." The video for Everything consisted of them running around LA and getting as many celebrities as they can into their video. This project was called Bandarrazzi. It took them six months to finish the video. After that, they made another video for their song "Perfect Company." For this, they went all the way to Alaska and put as many animals into their video as possible. This was known as "Band vs. Wild"

While they weren't making music videos or writing songs, they were touring. In early 08', they went on the Bamboozle roadshow with Armor For Sleep, Saves the Day, Metro Station, and Set Your Goals. ACM and set your goals covered Blink 182s "the party song during Set Your Goals' set. After that, they went on the road with The medic droid. Then they toured with some other bands, but their last tour was with Automatic love letter, and A Rocket to the Moon. During this tour, the Phoenix sow date was cancelled at last minute which made a girl named Rachel Cepeda very sad.

Now, A Cursive Memory is finishing up their sophomore album. So far, the new songs are "Ciao Bella," "The year," "Breathe," and another one that I can't remember. Their are two guests on the record; Jayme, and Ken Oak who is playing strings.
If you look on Imeem.com. you can hear older songs like "Mr. White," "I was wrong," Deal the cards," and "Lights, camera, action."

When they play live, they like to play covers. Some of the songs they have covered include "Such great heights" by The Postal Service, "Come clean" by Hilary duff, "A thousand miles" by Vanessa carlton, and "Disturbia" by Rhianna.

Mark is stage right, Colin is center, and Shaun is stage left.

Woot Woot big_smile I bet you guys were bummed you couldn't tour cause you were still in high-school sad so then y'all were all like lets write music and make an album!!! big_smile and you performed the song "Changes" At a Cutthroat Kiss reunion concert. Changes landed a spot on "The Simple Life" (Saaaaaaaaaaaaweeet:) ) And then you guys joined Hellogoodbye:D on some tour dates on the west coast (west side baby:) ) Then Brian left to pursue other things (thats what my boyfriend said when we broke up..TMI much?) Then you guys got your big break OMG! You signed on too vagrent records:D big_smile They put out RESPEAK EP that included 4 flippen sweet songs that were gonna be totally wizard and they were gonna be on their debut album<3. Mishka Bier filled Brians spot till they found Dillan!!!! Then you all toured around the US of A:) Woot.! Changes came out on Feb. 18, 2008:D It was wizard. And it included 3 remastered songs!!! yikes like woah! JACKPOT! Then you guys got your ghetto blaster (Love love love:) ) and your camera and made Banderazzi!!!!
