The Score

About Me

The Score started in 2007 as the full-ensemble project of singer/songwriter Arison Cain. Since then, The Score has worked to reclaim and redefine familiar pop and alternative sounds without the threat of swoopy bangs, insincerity, or lack of street cred.
"Songs For A Halfway Home", is our debut full length album. The record was produced by Matthew Corey and Ace Enders. (The Early November) The album was mastered by Ed Brooks. (Pearl Jam, Harvey Danger, Death Cab for Cutie)
PRESS:
"Mixing the slightly off-kilter vocal delivery of bands like Say Anything and Weatherbox with an undeniable talent for hooky choruses, The Score are surely a band to know. With a new EP out, titled Steady Fingers!! Steady Fight!!, The Score shouldn't lie in obscurity much longer. OK, enough with the lame, press release-style sentences. These guys play fun, quirky pop-rock that occasionally takes new paths on its way to catchiness." - Blake Solomon, Absolutepunk.net
"Immensely friendly and down to earth, these guys are definitely a breath of fresh air from today's internet bands." - E-Minor Music Blog
"With their thoughtful lyrics and catchy hooks, their pop-rock sound has just enough of both pop and rock to make you want to listen - even if you're well past puberty." - Cassandra Baber, Utica Observer-Dispatch
