The Dangerous Summer signed their first record deal as high school seniors and quickly established themselves among the alt-rock world’s elite. The band writes hooks that serve as soundtracks for important life moments for a diverse group of listeners spread across the globe. The audience is more family than a fanbase.
"Reach for the Sun" is the record that “shot them into the pop-punk pantheon” (Kerrang!). Powered by unshakeable, enduring alt-rock anthems, the Ellicott City, Maryland band’s debut album made them heroes of the Warped Tour world, all while they carved their own unique path. 2011’s "War Paint" was a sophomore-slump-smashing follow-up. Alternative Press saluted The Dangerous Summer as a group that stayed true to their sound, praising the songs on their 2018 self-titled comeback album as equal parts charismatic and addictive. 2019’s "Mother Nature" conjured an emotional storm, with an uplifting bent. Underoath’s Aaron Gillespie appeared on the 2020 EP, All That Is Left Of The Blue Sky.
Produced by Will Beasley (Turnstile, Asking Alexandria), 2022’s "Coming Home" ushers in a new era for TDS. The Dangerous Summer never sacrificed their unique, diverse sonic identity, one that appeals to fans of everything from Kings Of Leon and Coldplay to Jimmy Eat World and Bright Eyes. "Coming Home" is a triumphant summary of what The Dangerous Summer is all about, past, present, and future.
