False Start's impassioned, independent ‘DIY’ ethic hasn't gone unrecognised. The 'Goodbye Summer E.P.' sold out on the first night of sales to a packed out instore performance at Real Groovy Records in Auckland, launching them onto the Real Groovy National chart debuting at 3. Shortly after, Angelo Munro [ lead singer of 'The Bleeders' ], signed False Start to his own record label, Deadboy Records with distribution/backing from Universal Music NZ. Having conquered eastern Australia with a string of shows through the Gold Coast, Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, False Start have also caught the eye of Australian press, gaining recognition from Tsunami, Time-Off and Chik magazines.

False Start's mini-album is in-stores now! 'ADORE TU SER' has debuted at 3 on the Official New Zealand album Heatseekers chart and at 1 on the Independent albums chart. International fans can order 'ADORE TU SER' HERE.
