Voted Most Random

Voted Most Random is an American pop punk band formed in 2010 from Hamden, Connecticut. Although currently unsigned, the band is making a name for themselves on the East Coast in states like Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Delaware and New Hampshire. In April 2010 they played a benefit concert for The Clearwater Initiative with pop punk quartet We The Kings at Toad's Place in New Haven, Connecticut raising over $11,000 for the cause.[1] The group released their E.P. debut album in 2010, which debuted at their sold out CD release show at The Space in Hamden, CT.[2] The band then went on to earn spots on both the 2010 Warped Tour and The Bamboozle Festival in 2011.[3][4] On February 23, 2011 Voted Most Random was featured in the New Haven Register's "make a playlist" series.[5] In the summer of 2011, the band's popular hit "Party Naked" was featured in the pop punk compilation CD "The Scene-you just need to know where to look," released by Pacific Ridge Records.
