In Spring of 2006, a plague of brightly colored, plastic tambourines threatened the foundation of an over-crowded house party. Social Studies, based out of San Francisco, took the stage for the first time, sweating out the indie pop anthems that had been building up inside them since adolescence.
After gaining a reputation for their energetic live show the band released their debut EP, This is the World's Biggest Hammer, in Fall 2006. The EP quickly received both local and national airplay, and charted for three months on KALX Radio, peaking at no. 8. Social Studies is currently completing their first full length album, to be released in 2008, and are planning a national tour.
