Pants Are Overrated

About Me



View the complete Pants Are Overrated tour schedule
Pants Are Overrated. An idea. A way of life.
Three pantsless dudes and one pantsless dudette playing music that makes them happy. Of course, given the fact that they all have the attention spans of retarded goldfish, it can be a little hard to pin down one particular style of music. Songs range from fast Social Distortion inspired punk rock to quieter Barenaked Ladies type ballads.
Over all, Mutt Rock seems to be the best way to sum up this Southeast Iowa quartet. It's made up of a little bit of everything, but damn it's cute.

Get your Pants Are Overrated T-shirt at our next show!
