READYGOES

ReadyGoes, born product of the need for an impromptu
pseudo-dance-pop spectacle in the early summer of 2007, sprouted truly
by happy accident. Vocalist Bryan Shackle and drummer Tyler Jorenby
were seemingly handed their long-awaited opportunity to form their
dream project on a silver platter shortly after being commissioned by In The Groove Productions
to produce bumper music and songs for various television shows. After
being offered an actual live performance that July, what appeared to be
a forthcoming panicked yet painstaking search for the missing links in
the group happened seemingly overnight. Immediately in co-founder
Jorenby’s back yard were bassist George Hadfield and guitarist Mo. Shackle then turned to guitarist Patrick Gibbs, and the lineup was completed.


Within 2 weeks of scrambled rehearsals, writing and recording sessions,
and Jager shots down the road at Lee’s Liquor Lounge, the supergroup
had brought the concept of a truly punishing, energetic, and unique
indie-pop-rock set of originals to life.


Several months of assiduous song-crafting and performances at some of
the best clubs in town led to the conception of a 5 song, self-titled
EP with Evan “Evil” Bakke of World Record Productions (Quietdrive, Throw the Fight, Lucky Boys Confusion) and Adam "Pudge" Krinsky. Songs like “Psycho” and “Flashbulb”
encompass a slam n’ punch indie rock n’ roll vibe along the lines of
such groups as The Killers and Muse, while the band maintains its
emotionally charged roots in the slamming semiballads “Marianne” and “If I Ever See you Again.”


Following the release of their debut record, Readygoes set forth into
the visual world. In the summer of 2008, the band put together a music
video for their B-side "Hey-Oh" with award winning producer Joe Brandmeier
(Wyclef Jean, Prince, Jason Mraz, Lauryn Hill). The song had already
been featured as bumper music and on several popular TV shows
including, but not limited to, E!'s "Living Lohan" and MTV's "Next."



In September 2008, the music video made its world-premiere on E! News
With Ryan Seacrest & Giuliana Rancic, marking the first-time the
show has ever featured an unsigned act in their music segment. The
video was also featured in Fuse’s "Unsigned On Demand" series in early '09.



It’s safe to say that the mischievous kingpins of ReadyGoes
won’t be seeing much rest in their musical near-futures. Most recently
the band has been recording new material in Nashville with producer
extraordinaire, Dan Muckala, and winning over crowds at colleges and clubs throughout the Midwest with their high energy live show, opening for bands like Cute Is What We Aim For, Augustana, Hellogoodbye, Ra Ra Riot, Lovedrug, and Band Of Skulls.
