One is from NYC, one from Pittsburgh in the USA, the other from the Channel Island of Jersey, UK. The description below depicts the band from Pittsburgh. The female-fronted electronic pop The Switch that resides in New York City can be found on Myspace here.
"Hailing from a small suburb of Pittsburgh, PA, this POWER POP experience has rocked the hearts of thousands in its five (5) year existence. Emerging with a unique style that has been kid tested and mother approved", yet still speaking the universal language of rock, they have broken stereotypical barriers with 3-part harmony and driving compositions.
The Switch independently released their first full length album titled General Nuisance" in August 2001, with another independent full length titled, The Great Soda Punk Addiction" releasing in 2003 that received great reviews from local critics. The Switchs newest project, The Make It Count EP" was released on February 18, 2005 to a SOLD OUT crowd and pre-sold over 1,500 copies.
