Drawing on anthemic pop, angsty indie rock, and atmospheric electro-pop, Los Angeles-based duo the Score specialize in exuberant, hook-driven tunes. Their full-length debut, 2017's ATLAS, landed in the Top 20 of the Billboard Heatseekers chart and they followed it up three years later with Carry On. An EP, Chrysalis, arrived in 2021.

Vocalist Eddie Anthony, a self-taught guitarist from Orange County, California, and Edan Dover, a producer and formally trained jazz pianist from New York, began their partnership as a songwriting team in New York City with the intention of writing for others. Motivated by the desire to have their accumulating work reach an audience, they eventually began performing their songs at the city's Rockwood Music Hall as the Score.

Attracted to the Los Angeles music scene, they relocated, and in January 2015, the duo shared the first song they wrote on the West Coast. "Oh My Love" quickly surpassed a million streams, mostly from the U.K., where it topped various streaming charts and reached number 43 on the official singles chart. It was also licensed for several major-brand advertising campaigns and appeared in the film Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip. Six months after the song was released, the duo signed with Republic Records.

The Score's debut EP, Where Do You Run, arrived in September 2015. Two more EPs, Unstoppable and Myths Legends, followed in 2016 and 2017, respectively, and in August 2017, their fourth EP, Stripped, offered acoustic renderings of tracks from their two previous extended plays. That October marked the release of their first album, ATLAS. The band embarked on a tour of the U.S. and Canada in support of Echosmith, and in 2018, the ATLAS singles "Legend" and "Unstoppable" reached the Top 40 of the Billboard Rock Songs chart, with "Unstoppable" reaching gold status. Exhibiting a heavier rock edge, the early-2019 EP Pressure included a collaboration with blackbear. Another EP, Stay, saw release that August. Premiering in December 2019, the Score's song "Bulletproof" (featuring XYLØ) appeared in the Netflix film 6 Underground. The group's second album, Carry On, followed on Republic in August 2020. Its guests included singer Jamie N Commons and blink-182 drummer Travis Barker. The Score returned with another EP, Chrysalis, in September 2021, featuring the popular tracks "Top of the World" and "Head Up." ~ Marcy Donelson, Rovi
