Everyone has a favorite fix: that one thing that gets the blood coursing through your veins and the endorphins firing in your brain. For Artist Vs Poet, that fix is music. Their debut album Favorite Fix, released on March 2nd, 2010, is aptly named, as it features each member’s individual passion: creativity and love for music taking shape in the form of upbeat songs that will inevitably become their fans’ favorite fix, too. Produced by Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount (All Time Low, Mayday Parade, Cartel) along with Mike Green (Paramore, Breathe Carolina), Favorite Fix contains twelve undeniably catchy, uber-melodic tunes, including the title track from the Damn Rough Night EP. Enlisting the help of Forever The Sickest Kids’ Austin Bello, whose vocals are featured on “Damn Rough Night”, and The Maine’s John O, who collaborated on first track “Car Crash”, the album has been given a new dimension.
In the fall of 2007, singer Tarcy Thomason sat in his Dallas, Tex. home and realized he missed making music. Thompson posted a MySpace bulletin, asking to get together and jam with other musicians. When former guitarist Craig Calloway responded, the two hit the studio, bringing in Joe Westbrook on drums. They started playing local shows, gaining bass player Jason Dean and completing their line up after discovering guitarist Joe Kirkland on YouTube. Artist Vs Poet was born, and didn’t waste time in getting on the radar of the industry.
