Roman Holiday is a band that begs to be seen live. It dares you, song after song, to sing along and raise a lighter. There's not a single moment in any of Roman Holiday's songs that suggests a band that's resting on its laurels. Every build-up is tight and suspenseful, every chorus explodes, and every hook is more gigantic than the last. Having been birthed in a recording studio means their sound was born running, and it really shows. They are the most radio-ready band in Tacoma, and to say that you should hurry and see them before they get big is no kind of exaggeration. Their full-length debut CD release party happens Friday, so time is quickly running out to catch them before everyone else does.
