Hooray For Me are a four-piece rock band from Guildford in Surrey. They have a driving passion for writing and playing their blend of melodic rock and power-pop, which they have been creating and refining since 2001. They have a collective belief that the current trend of bands playing scream-driven rock is becoming very boring and predictable and is destroying any sense of individuality formerly associated with rock music. They believe that melody and feeling should prevail in an ideal rock song, the kind of melody and feeling that causes goosebumps and makes you shiver when you hear it. Hooray For Me pride themselves on putting real thought into the creation of their work by utilising inventive structures, emotional and powerful melodies, thought-provoking and often cryptic lyrics and imaginative relationships between all the instruments.
The result is an inspiring blend of easy listening, powerful pop-rock with a little bit extra to keep things interesting. Their live performance is a powerful, energetic force which both gets people moving and also inspires people to become lost in their thoughts as they stand and truly listen to the music, a trait in rock that nowadays is becoming more and more scarce. Whatever the outcome, Hooray For Me guarantees to leave a lasting impression and a smile on your face.
Reviews
"Reminiscent of the more melodic bands on the American label Victory. I could see these guys winning over fans of Hawthorne Heights, Bayside and The Audition."

"There seems to be a few bands coming out of the woodwork with well produced melodic rock records now - Hooray For Me stand out from the pack. Hooray For Me have refined their sound into a melodic haven of pop-rock efforts, complete with catchy choruses and extremely strong melodies... All three songs on this sampler are excellent; they all follow similar patterns yet remain catchy and will have you tapping along in no time. The cracking 'Autumn Eyes' is arguably the standout, a sweet hook and some cracking vocals really drawing you in. In previous years I've felt this is a type of music that UK artists struggle to compete with their US counterparts, but as long as bands such as this record songs as good as these, the future is in very good hands indeed."

“Sit up and take notice of Hooray for Me. The tracks we have listened to are complete and polished, providing a clean crisp sound, which makes great ear candy… Autumn Eyes is a melodic punk masterpiece that works in every way.â€
“In summary we think that provided Hooray for Me stick with the plot and keep entertaining us with more of this type of material, they will become a well known household name in the future.â€
