Just Surrender is a five piece pop punk/post hardcore band from Dover Plains, New York, formerly known as A Second Chance. Just Surrender was formed by three high school friends Jason Maffucci, Andrew Meunier, and Steve Miller. Vocalist/guitarist Dan Simons, formerly of "The Record Collection," joined the original three members.
Just Surrender's first compilation was a 4 song EP. Many of the songs written for the EP were re-recorded for their first full album, titled "If These Streets Could Talk." Recording took place at New York's Nada Recording Studios with producer John Naclerio. The band and their debut album appeared on MTV's "You Heard It Here First."
The band has quickly become popular on the music site PureVolume; they received more than 400,000 plays in a matter of months.
Just Surrender has toured with Autopilot Off, Bayside, My American Heart, theSTART, Cartel, Hawthorne Heights, Matchbook Romance, The Early November, Armor for Sleep, The Classic Crime, The Audition, All Time Low, Mayday Parade, Every Avenue, Set Your Goals and Powerspace.
Just Surrender released the song Body Language and Bad Habits on their MySpace page on July 1st, 2007. The song is from the album We're In Like Sin, released August 21st 2007.
In 2005, Andrew Meunier left the band, and was replaced by Alex Haycraft. As of March 7th, 2008, original guitarist, Andrew Meunier returned to the band. The band sent in a statement to AbsolutePunk.net that reads: "Just Surrender fans may have noticed on recent tours that original guitarist Andy Meunier has returned to the band. Alex Haycraft (formerly of Park) has moved over to bass. After the addition and returning from the UK they wrote and recorded for an EP that will be released July 1st. The release will be all digital—available exclusively on Itunes.
