Anthony Roman (Composer) is the lead singer of Brookyn-based band Radio 4, who formed in 1999. Roman attests that their sound, which has been described as “danceable punk,” is “made in New York, is about New York, and sounds like New York.” He cites a variety of influences, including Gang of Four, Mission of Burma, Primal Scream and Zero Zero, though their lively punk sound combined with their militant political stance inevitably draws a strong comparison with The Clash. Radio 4’s “Party Crashers” was named NME single of the week, and the band has appeared on the Conan O’Brien Show. Radio 4’s music has been featured in numerous commercials including Nike, Shwinn bicycles, Sharpie Markers, and the TV show Rescue Me.
