A Short Walk to Pluto, formed in 2018, is a rising force in the music world, boasting a lineup of exceptionally talented members: Emma Armstrong on lead vocals, Max Kaiser on guitar and keys, Danny Moriana on bass and vocals, and Jake Biggs on drums. Their journey to success began with a savvy use of social media, particularly TikTok and Instagram, where they showcase original music and captivating covers. This online presence caught the attention of Howard Stern, who recently endorsed them on his SiriusXM show.

A Short Walk to Pluto’s reimagining of Tears For Fears’ iconic hit “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” is a bold testament to their musical vision and creative prowess.

Through their arrangement, the band pays homage to the original’s ability to define an era, propelling synth-pop to the forefront of pop culture in the 1980s.
