Something Corporate is a rock band hailing from Orange County, California. While they categorize their own music as piano rock, the industry has filed them somewhere between the pop punk genres. They are currently signed to Drive-Thru Records and Geffen Records. During the Summer of 2004, the band was growing exhausted from spending years on the road, and they decided to take a break. During the hiatus, guitarist Josh Partington formed the band Firescape and recorded the five song EP Rearden's Conscience in 2005. Lead singer and pianist Andrew McMahon, on the other hand, released a solo album Everything in Transit under the name Jack's Mannequin on August 23, 2005. The day he finished recording, he was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. On August 23, the day the record was ... released, he underwent a bone marrow transplant, and is now on the road to recovery. In the year 2006 the band considers themselves to still be on a break but they're coming back this year! Andrew is still pursuing Jack's Mannequin and Josh is still playing with Firescape. Brian Ireland (the bands drummer) has played with William Tell (ex SoCo member) and is the current drummer for the band Streamline. Clutch (Kevin Page, the bass player) manages the band Get Back Loretta. On October 14, 2006, at the Bamboozle Left festival in Pomona, California, Something Corporate reunited as the "special guest" to play three songs: Konstantine, I Woke Up in a Car, and Hurricane. Aside from consistant popularity, SC continues to contribute to their community by playing free shows; most notably their packed houses in Berkeley, California. On December 3, 2009 it was announced on AbsolutePunk.net that they would be playing the Bamboozle Left Festival in March 2010. Years active: 1998 - 2006 Associated with: Jack's Mannequin , Firescape Former Members: William Tell- Rhythm Guitarist/Backing vocals, Reuben Hernandez - Rhythm Guitarist
