Good Charlotte

Good Charlotte is an American Rock band from Maryland, and they were formed in 1996. The story behind me discovering this band for myself is again....through my friends. Back at my middle school, most people were in to rock, so it was easy to exchange bands and songs. My friend Charlotte (I found that to be hilarious), recommended that I listen to the band Good Charlotte. At this point, I wasn't really into Rock that much, I just liked the music that I heard on the radio. Now I'm proud to say that listening to this band has changed my perspective of music. Before I used to think that the songs on the radio were amazing. They were catchy, fun, and talked about relevant things that we're going on in my life. You can say that I felt some sort of connection while listening to radio music. But after listening to Good Charlotte I began to think that there was music out in the world that didn't only talk about the good things in life. I felt that rock music gave a more realistic view on what the song was about. I also felt that rock music was able to express ones feelings better, and sing something that has meaning.

The band consists of:

Joel Madden (Lead Vocals)

Benji Madden (Lead Guitar, Vocals)

Paul Thomas (Bass)

Billy Martin (Rhythm guitar, Keyboard)

Dean Butterworth (Drums)

I also remembered, in 2008 how Good Charlotte appeared in the iCarly movie. I thought that was really cool, because many people love that show so it was a good way to broadcast there music. 

Here's the link to the song that changed my perspective in the world of music:
