2Bucks Short plays a creative mix of American urban pop punk and 80s metal. Tagged by music critics as a ?melodic skate punk band,? they've been attracting large venue crowds because ? as one unabashed fan says, ?Their music glues itself to your mind like an unconscious addiction.? In the Fall of 2000, 2Bucks Short founder and lead singer Matt Heath, 22, had a bold plan and knew he needed the best to pull it off.
Matt conceived 2Bucks Short as a celebrity band of eclectic talents, gathering together the star performers of four already established and well-respected groups. 2Bucks Short first full-length CD, 'The Positionary Mission' was released by Wondergoat Records with much anticipation. The debut album is unlike any in punk history because of the diversity of the members themselves. With musical influences that include everything from Stevie Ray Vaughn and Miles Davis to the Decendents, 7 Seconds, Steely Dan and Iron Maiden, ?The Positionary Mission? makes a statement about each member while projecting the unique sound of the band as a whole. 2Bucks Short's music is loud, energetic and confident. Lyrically, their message is positive and promotes trusting your dreams. 2Bucks Short's live performances are a totally immersive experience that grabs the audience and never lets go. Connecting with the audience is their primary goal and it has earned them a reputation as the next big thing to come out of the Pacific Northwest.
