"Four Together"

“Every time that I hear Dodging August I can hear the band maturing, and their well-deserved local support is growing.”
- Gina Mignogna, Pittsburgh Rock Press


“The only time I saw them live, they played some hole-in-the-wall South Oakland bar for an hour-and-a-half (an hour-and-a-half ), stopping only once for a minute-long pee/beer break. Kinda unusual for a tightly-woven, solo-free pop band.”
- Deek Magazine


“Even with the change they have an incredible sound that is comparable to that of the Goo Goo Dolls and Saves the Day. With lyrics that run on for days (such as bands like Dashboard Confessional) and catchy hooks, these guys are rocking in the right direction.”
- Brian Palmer, The Pitt News


“This music will remind you of that of the 90’s when pop rock was king and in a never ending battle with Grunge music. If anything, see them live as well. They put on a great show that will be sure to remember.”
- John Bodnar, Fusebox Magazine

Bio

"Creating... Goodbye", Part I of the newest EP from dodging August is scheduled for release in early 2007.

dodging August demands your attention with their pop, power-rock sound and energetic performances and laces it together with thought provoking lyrics. Many claim that dodging August has a similar feel to national bands such as 'Jimmy Eat World', ‘New Found Glory’, or even ‘Fall Out Boy’.

Each of the four takes great strides to create and polish their music into maturity, but never to sacrifice the pure adolescence of rock and roll. Dedicated hard work, perseverance and a good chin are qualities they pride themselves in and believe these have made this group successful in gaining momentum.

The band attributes the success of their live shows to keeping the goal simple: capture the crowd and leave them wanting more. Whether you are up front or in the back of the room, they want you to see and feel the energy from the stage.

dodging August loves to perform and create great music and it is revealed in their pop-punk-rock style. They concentrate on providing an exciting element to the music and it makes this band an experience you don’t want to miss.
