Army of Freshmen

Army of Freshmen are a US-based band who have played over 900 shows in most of the US states and in countries around the world. They have also released three albums and the band also co-created the Get Happy Tour (along with fellow Download Festival band Bowling for Soup).

Their show is an immediate start to the day with the sheer energy that they create. The third stage, for 11.45 in the morning, is crowded with hundreds of AoF fans waiting for a chance to see the band who then tear through their set.

The six band members, and two keyboardists, that make up Army of Freshmen have clearly been looking forward to this show for a long time and their fans love every minute of their powerful, emotional and energetic performance.

As the band come to finish their set, vocalist Chris Jay announces that the band will be returning to the UK for a tour in October of this year. You can check out Army of Freshmen at their MySpace page http://www.myspace.com/armyoffreshmen.
