Ready Set Go!
Ready Set Go! – Toluca Lake, California
When you think of pop bands most people conjure up images of “boy bandsâ€, like 98 Degrees, Hanson and Backstreet Boys. The greatest boy band EVER was the Jackson Five, The Osmond’s did their thing and then there’s New Edition and N’Sync, the last two being my personal favorites. Over the years different incarnations of bands cloaked with the “boy band†moniker have sprung up, hell I would even say that Paramore is a different branch on the boy band tree. Ready Set Go! is one of these bands 5.0 style, with an adorably strong female front. I think everyone has a guilty pleasure and this type of pop music is mine. I like kids when they are allowed to be kids; when they sing about the topics that kids should be singing about. RSG do just that as well as play instruments, write songs and sell out shows and just like their predecessors this band has a TV Pilot offer on the table so love it or hate it, they will not be going away …. Yeah it just gets more annoying with talent and cuteness. These siblings really make me want to kick my Mom and Dad in the shins…I could have been somebody!!!

Listen to their Fresh Track Now!
dude, I’ve seen then live and they are for real and really good…kids nowadays are used to all kinds of production tweaks that they think is how music really sounds, and in order to compete and reach their target demo they have to do stuff like autotune…but trust me – these kids are the shizzle…
Why do they annoy you?
I’m not saying they won’t be huge, but that doesn’t mean they’re good, or even talented. The fact that the article mentions that they can play instruments like that’s a huge accomplishment just shows that quality isn’t even a factor in determining what music is seen as relevant or worthwhile at this stage of the game. If you’re going to be a musician, you sure as hell should be able to play music! As for “being kids,” how many normal teenagers out there are going to photo calls, playing concerts, doing interviews, etc? They aren’t kids being kids, they’re kids being sold as products by parents who want to live vicariously through their children’s fame. After they’ve lived for a few years, seen more of the world, experienced life, had their hearts broken, and figured out their own beliefs [as much as any of us ever can] etc. then maybe they will have something to say that is worth listening to . . .
Am I the only one who finds them ridiculously annoying?! They’re songs aren’t good and their voices are autotuned to the point of painful . . .
Super solid and professional in every way, these kids remind us all of what a family line up of complete artists should look like! …..and they’ve got everything going for them from the top down. Infectious enthusiasm and music in their genetic structure. Look for them on prime time TV as well some day soon!
Thanks for the story. Almost sounded like you were being sarcastic, but it’s obvious that this band is gonna be huge. love it!
I saw this band on that show “young icons” on fox in my city Miami…I am blown away! where can I buy this song???
that song is straight dope!
One of the best young bands around, it should only be a matter of time before they break in a big way. Full of fun, but with a steely determination they produce an awesome sound. Sydney has one of the most special young female voices in music!!
