SoCal band Last Day Off gives back to Boys and Girls Club during summer tour
July 16th, 2010 by Craig Hartranft
San Pedro, CA – Wolf Bradley, singer of Last Day Off, grew up attending the Boys and Girls Club in San Pedro, CA. Now years later, with his own band and CD in tow, he wants to inspire that dream in a new generation as well.
Bradley was introduced to recording arts in the recording studio at the San Pedro facility. He began writing songs at age 12 and through his relationships at the club he was able to begin pursuing his passion for music.
After forming Last Day Off, Wolf introduced the band members to the Boys and Girls Club where they were welcomed by the video and music engineers. They began creating music and filming videos at the facility, and found the experience was an important one in their formative years.
“Exposure to the arts is very important.”, Bradley comments, “My parents are artists in their field. and they have always supported me. I want to share my passion for music with other kids. I hope to inspire them to explore their own talents, and most of all I want to let them know that they should never be afraid to dream.”
In 2009, Billy Graziadei, from the band Biohazard, discovered the group and took them into his studio to produce their debut EP entitled “Party Of The Century.” Later the group went back to perform at the Boys and Girls Club on various occasions and felt at home on their stage. This summer Last Day Off will embark upon a tour of Boys and Girls Clubs up and down the West Coast, and will be releasing an acoustic CD and music video.
