Transmit Now is an alternative/pop rock band based out of Orlando, Florida. The band's first live performance was on July 10, 2008 at the Van's Warped Tour 2008, the result of winning an online "Battle of the Bands" event. Soon after, Transmit Now went on to win the popular vote in MTV's "I Want My Music On MTV II" contest, and has since had its music featured in several MTV shows. In 2010, the band put out a full length album "Downtown Merry Go Round." In May 2010 the band shot a video for the album's first single, "Let's Go Out Tonight" directed by Chris Grieder. The video won mtvU's Freshman 5 for the week of August 30, 2010 and was added to rotation on the network. A punk-rock work ethic and a love for their music is what Brooks says sets Transmit Now apart from the rest of the power pop crowd.

After parting ways with their label in early 2011 the band set out to fund the recording of their second album via the website Kickstarter raising over $11,000.

Their new album "1955" was released on May 25, 2012.
