American Rock Band. Minneapolis, MN. Johnny Solomon. Molly Moore. Adam Switlick. Jonathan Blaseg. Al Weiers. A few years ago John Solomon walked away from music.

We Became Actors
From Minneapolis
First show since since June 5, 2009 • First 501 Club show • 20th show on MN Live's calendar since November 30, 2006
From last.fm:
Originally forming in the fall of 2007, We Became Actors have a hard time standing still. They throw tambourines, clap hands, kick over cocktails. The latter on accident. Usually. Like a Sunday hangover, they're loud, bright and soaked in gin. They power through pop embellished with flourishes of delay and synthesizer. With the help of Darren Jackson (Kid Dakota, The Hopefuls), they recorded their debut, This Is Where We Stand, at Shortman Studio (Tapes n Tapes, Cloud Cult) for release Fall 2009.
