Act As If

Act As If is an American Indie rock quintet from Los Angeles, California, United States, led by singer/songwriter Peter Verdell.
== History ==
After quitting his job in A&R at Drive Thru Records in 2008, lead singer Peter Verdell began working on his own first full length record, ''There's A Light,'' which was released on iTunes in May 2010. Mixed by Nick Baumhardt (Thousand Foot Krutch, The Class of 98), and mastered by Troy Glessner (Death Cab for Cutie, Pedro the Lion), the record was written and produced by Verdell, who also performed all instruments on the record, including: drums, guitars, piano, synths and vocals. Shortly after the release of "There's A Light" an official full band lineup was formed and the band began playing shows around LA including venues such as: The Troubadour, West Hollywood, Spaceland, House of Blues, The Bootleg, Hotel Cafe, Roxy Theatre (West Hollywood), The Glasshouse, The Viper Room, and Silverlake Lounge.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Act As If : Bio page )
In an interview with Anti Music, Verdell discusses the meaning behind the music: "I think the general message (and maybe the general theme of our album), is that when things seem to be falling apart, or someone we love doesn't love us back—we can still find light, or joy, or hope—if we choose to look for it."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Singled Out: Act As If - Act As If News @ antiMusic.com )
''There's A Light'' was deemed Fuseworthy by Fuse TV, and Absolutepunk.net has featured tracks from the album on their site.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Free Music Friday (6/4/2010) )
Songs from ''There's A Light'' have been featured on Apple.com (OS X Promo video ), ABC's ''Cougar Town'', CBS's ''Live to Dance'',〔 and episodes of MTV's ''The Buried Life'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Buried Life (Season 2) - Ep. 202 - Songs from the Show - MTV )〕 and ''Jersey Shore''.〔() 〕
In September 2011, Act As If released a video for their cover of Blink-182’s song "'Pathetic", off the band's 1997 album, ''Dude Ranch''. This video soon caught the attention of Blink-182's bassist/singer Mark Hoppus, who posted it on his personal Facebook page.
In December 2011, the band released a Christmas single, "Sleighbells & Reindeer," featuring Lucy Schwartz and Brian Fennell of Barcelona. The song was featured on ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas countdown and offered as a free download when fans pre-ordered Act As If's new EP "The Iron Is Hot," which came out on February 21, 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kick Kick Snare - Act As If: The Iron Is Hot )〕 Since release "The Iron Is Hot" has gained attention from blogs such as Kick Kick Snare,〔 and Kings of A&R,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Top 8 Emerging Artists - Kings of A& )〕 and the second song on the EP, "Oh My My", received extensive airplay on The World Famous KROQ-FM's Locals Only show with DJ / taste-maker Kat Corbett.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KROQ Locals Only Showcase August 22nd At On The Rox )〕 The music video for "Oh, My My" premiered on MTV.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Act As If ‘Oh My My’ )
