Music Nation is a Music Video Competition for Independent Artists

"Our songs are very simple, and can generally relate to everyone," says Everyday Tragedy guitarist Rome. "We sing about love, life, and the simple misfortunes of each. We use our own experiences as a mold, more like a mockery of ourselves to relay a message that life will always throw its little 'everyday tragedies' at you, and you just have to keep pushing through." And pushing through is exactly what pop-rock act Everyday Tragedy has been doing since day one — which in this case, was a freezing cold day in Detroit (and a likely warmer day in California). With band founders Greg and Rome meeting online, the musical pairing became substantially more real once they found that their visions, styles and ideas were vastly closer than the thousands of miles wedged between them might've suggested. The resulting collaborative affair eventually yielded Everyday Tragedy's debut, Lovesick, Heartbroken or Somewhere In Between, which fuses the melodic playfulness of The All-American Rejects with the full-throttle foresight of The Used and Taking Back Sunday.
