THE FAME

Throw yer homework on the fire

About Me



Three minute songs. Two guitars. One vision. Seems like a simple enough equation. Together, they make a glorious sound. THE FAME is a band from New York City but the songs they write sound just as good driving through L.A, Tucson, Cleveland, Orlando, and Green Bay as they do riding a subway car from Williamsburg to the Lower East Side. These are songs to blare from car stereos in high school parking lots across the country. Homework is thrown on the fire. The car is taken downtown. Heads bob. Feet tap. It's Rock N' Roll. It's pop music. It gets in your head and stays there for a long, long time. Turn up the volume and enjoy.
