New Jersey-based emo-pop players Man Overboard carry the flame of melodic, energetic, hardcore-influenced Garden State bands like <a href="spotify:artist:2B1L1L34sSDymuBqPeh7fp">Lifetime</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:5dePEjHD5QEEKixOHXuRRA">Midtown</a>. Founded in 2008 by childhood friends Nik Bruzzese (vocals/bass) and Wayne Wildrick (guitar), the pair began writing at Bruzzese's studio, bringing Zac Eiestenstein (vocals/guitar) and Justin Mondschein (drums) into the fold to record debut EP Hung Up on Nothing. Signing to <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Run+for+Cover%22">Run for Cover</a> the following year, the band offered a second EP, Dahlia. In 2010, Man Overboard fired on all cylinders, releasing the acoustic EP Noise from Upstairs as well as studio album debut Real Talk and a self-released live recording. The band also faced lineup changes that year -- Wildrick left the band for personal reasons and Justin Collier filled in on guitar duty, making way for new drummer Mike Hrycenko -- but came back big by joining the <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Rise+Records%22">Rise Records</a> roster. By spring 2011, Wildrick rejoined the band, as they recorded a self-titled sophomore album and hit the road on the Pop Punk’s Not Dead tour alongside <a href="spotify:artist:4ghjRm4M2vChDfTUycx0Ce">New Found Glory</a> that fall. Adding to the momentum, Man Overboard, released that September, landed on the <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Billboard%22">Billboard</a> 200, Top Hard Rock Albums, and Top Independent Albums charts. Drummer Joe Talarico replaced Mondschein for the group's third album, Heart Attack, which was released in 2013. ~ Chrysta Cherrie, Rovi
