With each member of False Start having immersed himself in music ever since he can remember, it was intuitive that False Start would form in the Winter of 2005. Musical artistry comes naturally, fusing together rock and pop-punk into catchy, accessible anthems is second nature.
False Start have become one of the hardest working bands in New Zealand, releasing their first single Don't Walk Away plus the debut Goodbye Summer EP. As well as sharing stages with international acts: Fall Out Boy, Good Charlotte, Funeral For A Friend, Story Of The Year, The Used, Aiden, Rise Against and more.
While the rest of the world was celebrating a White Christmas or spending their Summer re-creating scenes from a Motley Crue music video, False Start locked themselves away in an old converted walk-in-fridge to record their debut album; Through The Looking Glass, with their only release into the outside world being a Big Day Out performance and Australian tour.
