Bowling For Soup
More details >>
<< Hide details
Writing one perfect album is hard enough. But nine' Come on! Who else in the history of recorded sound has even dared reach such a milestone? Neil Young? Bob Dylan? Herb Alpert? Tiny Tim?
Throw out greatest-hits packages, and you've got maybe HALF a decent albums among them! Now, the only band to have hit the nine-album mark without so much as a bum note is Denton, Texas, Bowling for Soup. And there's no debating those stats, so don't even try!
As usual, Bowling For Soup's ninth full-length, The Great Burrito Extortion Case, is the best album anyone will release this year. It's got hits! It's got hooks! It's got hidden messages! Well, okay, it doesn't have any hidden messages, but it does have something no other album of the
past 10 years (or 20; was there even music that long ago?) has dared to offer. It has more undiluted HAPPINESS per song than should be legally allowed by law.
Seriously, do you think Bowling for Soup called their summer 2006 tour 'The Get Happy Tour' for nothing?
Adding to the growing list of diverese acts playing at The Engine Shed, Grammy nominated American pop-punk band Bowling For Soup have announced a tour date in July!

He’s been a regular in Lincoln for years; he’s doing more and more TV shows and gaining in popularity now come one and come all to see what all the fuss is about. You won’t leave disappointed.
