Biography
Drawing on anthemic pop, angsty indie rock, and sparkling electro-pop, the Los Angeles-based duo the Score craft exuberant, hook-driven tunes. Their debut full-length ATLAS reached the Top 20 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart upon its 2017 arrival, while Carry On appeared three years afterward. By the time the bass-forward Metamorph emerged in 2022 as their third long-player, the Score had already issued more than half a dozen EPs. The rock-club-floor-stomping anthems persisted on Last Legends, released in 2024.
Self-taught guitarist and vocalist Eddie Anthony (Ramirez) from Orange County, California, joined forces with formally trained jazz pianist and producer Edan Dover from New York; the pair initially teamed up as a songwriting unit in New York City to create material for other artists. Once their growing catalog prompted a wish to connect directly with listeners, they began performing as the Score at the city’s Rockwood Music Hall.
Drawn to the Los Angeles scene, they relocated there and unveiled their first West Coast composition, “Oh My Love,” in January 2015. The track swiftly amassed over a million streams, dominated various U.K. streaming charts, and peaked at number 43 on the official singles chart. It also secured placements in multiple major-brand advertising campaigns and in the film Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip. Six months after its release, the duo signed with Republic Records.
Their first official EP, Where Do You Run, surfaced in September 2015. Unstoppable and Myths & Legends followed in 2016 and 2017, respectively, before Stripped offered acoustic versions of earlier material in August 2017. ATLAS arrived that October, after which the band toured the U.S. and Canada in support of Echosmith. The ATLAS singles “Legend” and “Unstoppable” both entered the Top 40 of the Billboard Rock Songs chart in 2018, and “Unstoppable” earned gold certification. Exhibiting a heavier rock edge, the early-2019 EP Pressure featured a collaboration with blackbear, while Stay appeared that August. Premiering in December 2019, “Bulletproof” (featuring XYLØ) was included in the Netflix film 6 Underground. The group’s second album, Carry On, arrived on Republic in August 2020 with appearances by singer Jamie N Commons and blink-182 drummer Travis Barker.
After parting ways with Republic, the Score operated independently and released the EP Chrysalis through Imperial distribution in September 2021. They soon returned with the full-length Metamorph in March 2022, which emphasized the low end of their anthemic sound and included the single “Big Dreams,” a duet with Fitz (of Fitz and the Tantrums). Non-album tracks followed, including the July 2022 collaboration “Bad Days” with tour partners Dreamers and 2023’s “Deep End,” before Anthony and Dover each pursued side projects—Anthony with Unroyal and Dover under the additional pseudonym DEANE alongside his work as EDVN. The Score reconvened in early 2024 with “Survivor,” the first of several previews leading to their fourth album, Last Legends, which arrived that November.
