They have really made a name for themselves on Social Media, with their videos of cover songs featuring Johnny and Ryan wearing blue bowls on their heads, Adam singing as he and Griffin use water bottles as drumsticks. All that combined with Adam’s zanny facial expressions and his powerful vocals make them hard to forget.
