Today, there are many genre's in which music is classified. Only one style continues to capture our excitement, and remain in the forefront of music lovers around the world. I'm talking about the musical recipe for combining catchy tunes and memorable lyrics that leave one singing and humming for weeks - Pop Music. This is what POPSTAR is all about - A Baltimore-based pop/rock outfit that aims to put the "umph" back into the alternative/radio/pop/rock music scene!
POPSTAR is credited with opening for national touring artists such as Joydrop (Tommy Boy), and Self (Dreamworks). POPSTAR has won first prize for DC101's Battle of the Bands, as well as a similar competition put on by Mars, the musicians planet. In addition, POPSTAR has gained recognition in The Baltimore City Paper's annual - "Best local single award". POPSTAR has recently been asked to play the Philadelphia Music Conference later this year.
On a grassroots level, POPSTAR continues to tour the mid-Atlantic, playing various festivals and venues while acquiring many outstanding reviews in local and regional magazines.
POPSTAR holds the web as an important medium to reach potential fans all over the world. This is reflected by their excellent charting status on local, state and regional charts for Mp3.com. Such striving and achievement is reflected in the constant growth of fans, and the professionalism of POPSTAR as a marketing entity.
POPSTAR draws influence from Tripping Daisy, The Samples, Goo Goo Dolls, and a host of many styles of music such as Jazz, Blues, R & B, Country, Heavy Metal. POPSTAR fuses these influences together to create a very entertaining package. POPSTAR uses guitar melodies, combined with low thumping rhythm to create high energy driving pop tunes. In addition, POPSTAR features precise harmonies, melodic hooks and thought provoking story lines. POPSTAR brings excitement, incite, and pure entertainment to any LIVE venue.

"Alive, Entertaining, Tight! Go see the show"
- Kevin Kash DC101
"Pop Star make well-produced, radio-friendly Power-Pop with infectious melodies, tricky drum accents, and lush vocal harmonies. Slide guitar and feedback add texture, swooping and diving in and out of the dominant melody line."
