More about this title

About the Artist: Fall Out Boy

Fall Out Boy emerged from Chicago's pop-punk scene in the early 2000s and became one of the defining bands of their generation. Led by Patrick Stump's distinctive vocals and innovative songwriting, the band blends punk energy with pop sensibility, creating hooks that burrow into listeners' heads and stay there. Their work spans nearly two decades of evolution, from raw punk experiments to stadium-ready anthems that maintain artistic credibility alongside commercial success.

Why we love this

Fall Out Boy's infectious pop-rock DNA translates beautifully to concert band, and Michael Brown's arrangement captures the song's quirky personality while keeping it accessible for young players. The Munsters theme integration adds a layer of fun that'll have your students smiling during rehearsals and your audience laughing with recognition. At Grade 2, this sits right in that sweet spot where technically achievable meets genuinely engaging.

What to expect

Energetic and slightly offbeat, with a driving rock pulse that never takes itself too seriously. The familiar Munsters theme adds a nostalgic wink, while Fall Out Boy's melodic sensibility keeps everything rooted in singable, memorable lines that stick with you long after rehearsal ends.

Who it's for

Concert bands in Grades 2 and up looking for something current that resonates with student musicians and audiences alike. Directors who want to program modern repertoire without sacrificing musicianship will find this arrangement strikes an excellent balance.

How to get the most out of it

  • Balance the driving rhythmic pulse with the melodic hooks; the groove matters as much as the tune itself.
  • Articulation deserves attention in the rock passages. Crisp, unified tonguing in the winds will punch up the energy.
  • The Munsters references work best when they're clearly audible; don't let them disappear under the main melody.
  • Keep the tempo steady and confident. This piece thrives on groove, so a wandering conductor's beat will undermine the whole effect.

How to use it

Perfect for a spring or fall concert that leans toward contemporary repertoire and appeals to student performers. Pair it with one other rock or pop arrangement and a traditional piece to create a program that shows your ensemble's versatility. At under two minutes, it's an efficient opener or closer that builds momentum without demanding substantial rehearsal time.

Skills your students will build

  • Rock and pop style articulation and phrasing
  • Rhythmic precision in syncopated passages
  • Balancing ensemble blend with distinctive melodic lines
  • Reading and performing contemporary popular music notation
