A ska/punk band from Greater Boston, MA. Our band is called Second Solution and we offer a mix of "Less Than Jake-style ska" combined with some "mxpx-style punk rock" with some different twists along the way.
We are a six-piece band:
  ryan-   vocals
  matt s- guitar/backup
  alex-   bass
  tj-     drums
  anson-  trombone
  matt w- trumpet
Second Solution was started as a band in April of 1998 and since then, it has evolved into music. To get a sense of our sound, consider that we have covered different songs, including:
  Party, My House, Be There- mxpx
  The Crowd- operation ivy
  unity (with horns)- operation ivy/reel big fish
  History of A Boring Town- Reel Big Fish
  Take On Me- (reel big fish version)
  *ocassionally* Jolene- spring heeled jack
  Chick Magnet- mxpx
  Want Ad- mxpx
For past experience, second solution has played at back-yard parties that don't matter at all. We have played at organized events run by town organizations. We have played 2 of our own independently-scheduled shows around this area. We have played in school talent shows, and 2 battles of the bands (we won the Battle of the Bands at Central Catholic High School, Lawrence MA).
