Actionreaction - 3 Is the Magic Number

Jason Gleason is widely considered as one of the quintessential torchbearers of the emocore boom. As frontman in Further Seems Forever, a role previously played by Chris Carabba (Dashboard Confessional), it would be easy to assume that his new project, ActionReaction, would continue to build on the same aesthetic that helped him bring Further Seems Forever to stardom. But perhaps it's time to entertain the notion that Gleason's a firm believer in the road less traveled. After splitting with his former band and label, and with only a few dollars in his pocket, Gleason moved from Florida to New Jersey to be with long-time friend, Bella. To make ends meet, Gleason and Bella joined a painting and carpentry crew, which included her former Element 101 bandmate Salvatore. As a result of grueling, twelve-hour days sanding floors and painting atop 50-foot ladders, a bond was formed which resulted in the early stages of ActionReaction. Their sound is a beautiful, messy melting pot of styles and influences. Gleason credits ELO, Travis, Pearl Jam, Talking Heads and U2 as inspirations. Part carnival, part arena rock, and their live show demands audience participation. An all encompassing celebration of sight and sound, an ActionReaction performance is more of event that the band insists on making as inviting to the audience as possible.
