American Idol Underground is a version of the popular contest for bands and original musicians that takes place online. Since its inception, Fooling April has been one of the most featured bands in the contest. The band's success in Underground caught the attention of its creators making Fooling April became one of the "poster bands" for this exciting new project. This discovery earned the band a spot on the FOX morning show (click here for video) and a full feature article in "American Idol the Magazine" (click here for full story).


We have spotted various celebrities wearing "Fooling April" on the red carpet to huge events…and we didn't even have to pay them! Alex Chando (who plays "Maddie" on CBS' "How the World Turns") was spotted in NYC at People Magazine's 100 Most Beautiful wearing our yellow "Firefly" tee. Columbia Recording Artist and TRL regular, Teddy Geiger, was spotted in LA at The Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards wearing our navy "World Tour" tee.

David Bash of Amplifier Magazine said, "If you're looking for pop rock that's blessed with style and taste, look no further than Every Good Boy Does Fine, the debut disc by Philadelphia-based combo Fooling April. . Comparisons to Billy Joel are inevitable and somewhat justified, especially on poppy, spirited tunes like "Monet", "Backslide", and especially the rollicking "Chuckie & The Bone," but the band rocks more than Joel ever did. This is a band that would have absolutely been signed in the '70s, and deserve a major label deal today"
