Take infectious pop-rock hooks, teenage enthusiasm and jaw-dropping musical skills, add them all together and the result is Kicking Daisies. This 18-and-under four-piece band, born in a Milford, Connecticut basement, were named Disney's "Next Big Thing" and have already appeared on national TV and played before sold out crowds across the country. Now, band members Caitlin and Carly Kalafus, Duran Visek and Ben Spremulli are releasing their self-titled EP exclusively via Walmart on July 26th.

Produced by two-time Grammy-winner Mike Mangini (The Jonas Brothers, Joss Stone) and mixed by David Bendeth (Paramore, Taking Back Sunday, Vertical Herizon) and Howie Beno (Little Jackie, We the Kings, Diane Birch), the Kicking Daisies EP is full of fresh, summer ready pop gems. From the soaring chorus of "Breathing" to the synth-heavy sing-along, "Dangerous", their songs put a smile on your face and dare you not to dance.

EP Track Listing:

  1.  Dangerous
  2.  Shut Up
  3.  Breathing
  4.  Keeping Secrets
  5.  Big Bang Theory

With hair flying and heads banging, guitars shredding and mind blowing drum solos, the band has quickly gained a reputation for their energetic live shows. Having opened for the likes of Natasha Bedingfield, Leona Lewis and Allstar Weekend, they have played for varied audiences on diverse platforms and rocked each and every stage. Check out their profile in the New York Times for more details HERE<http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/27/nyregion/27musicct.html>. Kicking Daisies will be touring this summer across the country including a performance at Macy's annual School's Out Summer Fest in NYC on July 17, a stop at Six Flags in St. Louis, and a handful of dates on the Vans Warped Tour.

They also appeared on The HUB this past weekend and their hit "Keeping Secrets" will be featured on Radio Disney Jams - 15th Birthday Edition, out on August 16th.
Kicking Daisies are a tour-de-force of talent made up of guitar prodigy Ben Spremulli, charismatic frontman Duran Visek, one of America's fastest drummers Caitlin Kalafus and her sister Carly Kalafus rounding out the group as bassist and second lead vocalist.
