The New Forward

Here comes the letdown...

About Me

Check out this awesome fan video of "I’m Gonna Front It ’Til I Feel It"! Thanks, Irina!
The New Forward is two guys, two girls and a whole lot of fun. The story goes something like this... A blonde (Nick), a brunette (Keli) and a redhead (Ava) walk into a bar. They don’t drink much though, so they walk right back out (oh, okay, Nick has a beer). They notice a kid lurking about playing a guitar. He’s kind of a blonde/brunette/redhead all at once, with some black dye thrown in for good measure (Matt). Then... I don’t know. They form a band. It didn’t really happen like that but it could have.
Request us every Sunday night from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Pacific Time! IM BruinRadio or call 310 825 9999 and ask for I’m Gonna Front It ’Till I Feel It. Then, you know, listen for it.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Add As You Desire Me, I’m Gonna Front It ’Til I Feel It, Slowdown For The Letdown, Do Not Pass Go or Godot to your profile! Let us know and we’ll enter you in a contest to win some cool stickers and goodies, plus put you in our Top Friends!
IMPORTANT NOTE: We are currently looking to play shows anywhere in the SoCal area (San Diego, Orange County, Inland Empire, Ventura, whatever). Having a school function? Having a birthday party? Hell, having a small get-together? Whatever the occasion is, we would love to play it. Message us here on MySpace or contact our booking agent (Adlai Marks, booking[at]thenewforward[dot]net) with any questions!
If you’d like to chat for any reason, our AIM name is thenewforward. Creative, right?
