A.O.T.M March- "ComeOn, Let's Go!"

“Come On, Let’s Go!”
Burlington, Ontario
Power pop/ Rock

The Members

Paul- Vocals/Guitar

Andrew-Bass/Vocals

Logan- Drums

The Sound

“Come On, Let’s Go!” creates uplifting, upbeat party music. While listening to them you can’t help but get up and dance, or at least tap your foot along with the beat. A very excellent and talented band, worth checking them out.

The Background

“Come On, Let’s Go!”, formed for one reason and one reason only, to provide people with the joy of their music. They have been playing shows and are working on a new EP. The release date and other related information can be found at comeonletesgo.ca.

The Review

After listening to many songs by “Come On, Let’s Go”, I can say that I have become a fan. Whether it be the addicting instrumentals or the rather intriguing vocals, this band will have you hooked in a matter of minutes.

Touching on the bands vocals for a moment, they reminded me of what you would hear in a punk rock type of band, in that they have that, for lack of a better word, “whiney” sound to them. Not that this takes away from the band, in fact, I believe it adds some separation and uniqueness to them, which is always a good thing in my opinion.

I am looking forward to their EP, expected to be out soon. I know that these guys will put out a solid record as they are all amazing musicians.
