Clearwater, FL (Patti Petow) --
Radio Reset, perhaps the best kept alternative rock secret in the Tampa Bay, Florida area took first place in the Regional finals of The Global
Battle of The Bands held on October 19th, 2006 at Back Booth in Orlando, Florida. Andrew Arthur, lead singer, says, "Winning this kind of contest was incredible. It was the best night of my life."

The band is now set to compete in the National finals at the esteemed Key Club in Los Angeles, CA on November 11, 2006 with a private aftershow party at the world famous Viper Room. Radio Reset will be competing against 14 bands from other US regions. The US Finalist will be flown to London to represent the United States at the World Finals of the Global Battle of the Bands. Prizes will include $100,000.00 and a 2007 World Tour.
GBOB is taking place in 33 countries, from Germany to Japan and Jordan to Nepal. This is the world's largest live music competition. Tickets for this event are now on sale through Ticketmaster. Please find additional information about the GBOB at: https://www.gbob.com
Band members include lead vocalist/co-writer Andrew Arthur, guitarist/vocalist/co-writer Andy Pardue, bassist Mark Allen, drummer Johnny Coryn and newly acquired guitarist/keyboarder Jake Flanders.
Radio Reset has performed both to small and large audiences at select dates in the Tampa/Clearwater area and other venues across the United States and has also opened for various national and international recording artists. The band's sound has proven appealing to all ages. Weekly Planet music critic Eric Snider says, "RADIO RESET is radio ready with a gleaming pop-rock sound driven by the crystalline tenor (and song writing) of Andrew Arthur."
With their debut EP release, "This Is Not A Test," songwriting team Andrew Arthur and Andy Pardue continue working in the studio on a daily basis, writing songs faster than they can record them. Right from the stellar opening of Radio Reset's new EP you can tell that this band is about an off the scale, unsullied acceleration. That is the focus of Radio Reset, creating a sonic force that is a blend of each member's musical influences and style. From U2 to the Beatles to Jimmy Eat World, Radio Reset touches an expanse of musical decades without exploiting any of them.
Radio Reset has only one show left before they head off to LA to compete. They will perform Thursday, November 9th, on the mall at The St. Pete Times Forum before the Dashboard Confessional concert.
