M-80 is one of the hottest unsigned bands in the country. Fresh off the Vans Warped Tour and with major partners including Budweiser, M-80 is breaking nationally and gaining attention. Playing fast and fun modern punk with an edge, M-80 is a fan favorite and a hot prospect.

Based in Providence, Rhode Island, the band has maintained a reputation as a "must see" act, winning over a diverse fan base. Over the years, the band has racked up accolades and drawn big crowds as a headline act, as well as played with national acts. They have been recognized by both media and fans as one of the best and most hard-working bands around. Fans know that when M-80 plays, they give it their all and everyone has a blast.

Their last CD, Don’t Take It Away, found a national audience through distribution by Jump Start Records. Using the Internet, touring, promoting and generating a buzz, M-80 has built a national fan base over the years.

Their hard work and determination has been paying off as the buzz around M-80 grows louder. In addition to performing at this summer’s Vans Warped Tour and becoming a partner in Budweiser’s True Music Live program, their song Fight You For No Reason (off the new CD Put Down the BB Gun) was included on a compilation that was free with the August issue of Blender Magazine.
