THE READY SET To Release Debut Album 6/15, First Single 'Love Like Woe' Hits 5/24

Alternative-pop solo artist THE READY SET will be releasing his debut album on June 15, 2010. I'm Alive, I'm Dreaming is the first release from the newly minted joint venture between Pete Wentz's Decaydance Records and Sire Records.  The album will be a physical exclusive to Hot Topic and will also be available through all digital retailers.

The Ready Set is 20 year-old Indiana-born drummer, singer, songwriter and keyboardist Jordan Witzigreuter, who creates infectious, danceable pop designed for fun.  The first single off I'm Alive, I'm Dreaming, the JR Rotem-produced "Love Like Woe" is currently available exclusively on iTunes, and will hit radio on Tuesday, May 24th. The video for the song has already gotten over one million combined views and The Ready Set's "SETisodes" web series has also cracked one million views.

Having shared the stage with the likes of Boys Like Girls, Never Shout Never, and The Scene Aesthetic, The Ready Set has already developed a passionate and loyal fan-base.  The self-described shy and reserved Witzigreuter transforms when taking the stage, with an in your face, frenetic live set. "Our shows are a party… All I care about is having fun," says Jordan.

The Ready Set is taking the party mobile on the Bamboozle Road Show, which kicks off May 21st and runs through June 27th.  The nationwide tour features All Time Low, Third Eye Blind, Boys Like Girls and Good Charlotte. Immediately following they will hit the road with Forever the Sickest Kids, on a tour that runs from June 28th to July 17th.
