Year 7, Day 56

Good Morning! Today's song is Back To Earth by Steve Aoki featuring Fall Out Boy.

Fall Out Boy formed in 2001 and is made up of Patrick Stump, Joe Trohman, Pete Wentz, and Andy Hurley. They actually got the band name from a rogue fan at a gig of theirs. They got signed and released their debut in 2003. The band's popularity exploded before they released another album in 2005, and one in 2007. They went on hiatus in 2010 because all the members needed to decompress after the whirlwind career, and they each forayed into solo projects. They've since come back, making the next album in secret, and have been going strong. Steve Aoki is a DJ/producer/musician etc who has been active since 1996. He's collaborated with a lot of big names so you've probably heard of him before. He started out by making his own label, then was involved in a number of groups including Weird Science, This Machine Kills, Esperanza, and The Fire Next Time. As himself he has released six albums, the first in 2012 and the most recent from 2020. He's also appeared on TV spots as himself a lot which is odd but kind of works. His career is huge so I stripped it to the bare bones, but I would recommend looking into it more if you're curious. For now enjoy the song. 

Peace.
