The Active Set

Los Angeles, CA, February 10, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Los Angeles-based rock band The Active Set brings to Texas a new L.A. sound with their debut EP, produced by Jason LaRocca of The Briggs. The show is part of the South by Southwest Conference celebrations on March 14, 2008 at the Agave Bar, 415 East 6th Street in Austin.

About the highly anticipated EP and tour, band leader Matthew Stolarz says: “We're excited to come to Austin and bring audiences our upbeat take on indie. Some people take themselves too seriously, but we believe that music can be intelligent and energetic and can really create lasting, positive change.” “Waging a war on wasting away” has become their motto and a message that is prevalent throughout the EP.
