Tooth & Nail signs rock band FM Static

"If you've been wondering where the joy in music went, look no further -- FM Static has arrived!" So says Tooth & Nail Records, which recently signed the Toronto foursome, who "prove that music with a purpose can also be the catchy compliment to any summer day."

Featuring two members of Christian rock mainstay Thousand Foot Krutch, FM Static's sound relies more on the influences of bands like Weezer, Good Charlotte, and the Beach Boys to create their personal brand of sunny-faced power pop with a twinge of punk rock flair.

But even with all their catchy choruses, FM Static has not lost sight of their message. In fact, their focus is one not often touched by Christian bands in reassuring teens of their feelings in the path of growing up.

"I think these songs will let kids know it's okay to have bad days once in a while," comments lead singer and lyricist Trevor McNevan. "These are real things and situations that, as Christians, we don't talk about enough, and it leaves kids thinking that it's wrong to express their feelings."

This same heartfelt affirmation they project glows through in subjects of first loves, losses, and simple trials of maturity through using discernment in becoming a faithful follower of Christ. These themes are what create the genuine, heartfelt nature involved in their infectious album, What Are You Waiting For, due out July 22, and what will make teens across the nation so quick to identify with FM Static both lyrically and musically.

Already being added to several summer festivals and the highly anticipated Festival con Dios Tour in the fall, FM Static is off to a shining start that is sure to illuminate and encourage the hearts of all in their path.
