Explained simply
Taking Back Sunday are an American rock band formed in 1999, associated with the emo and alternative rock scenes. Louder Now was their third album, released in 2006, and included “MakeDamnSure”, one of their best-known songs.
The band’s line-up has changed over time. Adam Lazzara is the lead singer; John Nolan, Fred Mascherino and Shaun Cooper are former members who have also played on the album. The anniversary is a chance to revisit music made during a significant period in the band’s career and to bring some of its former members together to perform it live.
