So What

So What are a young Dutch Pop Punk band. So What consists of four band members; Vincent van Heese plays the bass, Bram Wesdorp sings and plays guitar, Joeri Gordijn plays drums and Alex van den Kleyenberg plays lead guitar.

They have raised $50,000 on crowd-sourcing website Sellaband and have released their debut album "Tiptoes". You can download "Keep On Running" for free from Sellaband here.

The music reminds me of a mix of the likes of Arctic Monkeys and Panic at the Disco.
