SIRE/DECAYDANCE RECORDS ARTIST THE READY SET SCORES FIRST GOLD-CERTIFIED DIGITAL SINGLE WITH
“LOVE LIKE WOE”

“REGIFTED” DIGITAL HOLIDAY EP PREMIERES NOVEMBER 30th

November 17, 2010 - The digital version of “Love Like Woe,” the first single from Sire/Decaydance Records artist THE READY SET has been certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. The JR Rotem-produced “Love Like Woe,” off The Ready Set’s debut EP I’m Alive I’m Dreaming, is climbing radio and sales charts across the country. The track is currently #15 on the Mainstream Top 40 airplay chart, with over 25 million in audience and growing every week. “Love Like Woe” is also #27 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart and #25 on the Digital Songs Chart.

The Ready Set is 21 year-old Indiana-born drummer, singer, songwriter and keyboardist Jordan Witzigreuter, who creates infectious, danceable pop designed for fun. I’m Alive, I’m Dreaming is the first release from the joint venture between Sire Records and Pete Wentz’s Decaydance Records.

MTV has been an early supporter of The Ready Set. Witzigreuter spent the summer on the MTV VMA tour with Never Shout Never, performed live on the finale of the TJ competition and was selected for MTV’s coveted “PUSH” & “POSTED” artist programs. The video for fan-favorite “More Than Alive” premiered yesterday during primetime as a part of MTV's "premiere week" alongside Bruno Mars, B.O.B. and My Chemical Romance. This marks one of the first times MTV has premiered a developing artist during primetime.

On November 30, 2010 The Ready Set will premiere the digital holiday EP “Regifted”. The release includes “Wishlist,” an original holiday song, a cover of Paul McCartney’s “Wonderful Christmas Time” and an acoustic version of “More Than Alive” as well as a digital booklet for only $1.99. To coincide with the holiday EP, "I'm Alive, I'm Dreaming" will be discounted and sold for only $6.99 on iTunes.

The Ready Set is out on tour now with Hey Monday and Cartel. The nationwide string of dates runs through November 27th in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, and he will also be performing at several radio shows through December. Keep an eye out for 2011 touring plans.
