Action Figure uses its kung fu grip to rock hard-edged pop-punk with catchy choruses and raw-nerve guitar hooks. The Pitch
Formed in 2005 by Jeff Pickman, Eric Jones, Marc Bollinger and Tripp Kirby, Action Figure came together out of the simple desire to write good songs. To this day, the band focuses on this one thing over all others. In doing so, they've skillfully married driving pop and high-energy indie rock to form an infectious sound that grabs you from start to finish.



In early 2005, Jeff, Eric and Marc were struggling to find the final member to complete the line-up, the singer. Jeff estimates that the band auditioned over 40 singers before finding Tripp. Tripps punk-infused vocal style and propensity for writing hook-driven pop songs matched perfectly with the bands vision. Thus, Action Figure was complete.



Action Figure began writing feverishly. The desire to get on stage fueled their urgency, but their commitment to creating quality songs took precedence. After working in the practice room for a year they scheduled their first show. The packed house along with requests for an encore left the band knowing that the wait was worth it.



Now, over a year later, theyve formed a solid reputation with their energetic performances and the first single off their debut album Every Minutes The End. Addicted to Distraction is based on a novel by contemporary author Chuck Palahniuk. This upbeat, power-pop fast burner about a man lamenting his ability to kill with a single involuntary thought has been an instant hit with fans. The song is currently receiving regular rotation on some commercial and internet radio stations.
In the Mid-wests ripening music scene, reviewers who proclaim that Action Figure "might as well be famous" (KC Star) are including the band in an impressive list of contemporaries. Action Figure will just continue to focus on writing songs they love to play and hope that the rest of the world will follow suit.
