Not PIL related but I'd like to publicise a group of youngsters in America, who are very talented.
The group is called Sugar Rush Rocks.
Guitar druid
Michael was eight and RJ was nine when they formed their rock/alternative band
Sugar Rush Rocks.
Michael Sebastian, lead guitarist for Sugar Rush Rocks
"We always
dreamed of playing music. When we would
get together to jam we had so much fun we wanted to just keep playing,"
says Michael.
Today 12-year-old
Michael and 13-year-old RJ together with 13-year-old Jake Brightman on bass and
16-year old Joey Fattore on rhythm guitar comprise the band and they’re
starting to cultivate quite a following in the northeastern part of America.
Joey, RJ,
Jake, and Michael participate in a quick band conference before a recent gig.
"Music is
everything to me. Drums for life, life
for drums," says RJ.

Practice makes perfect.
Michael and RJ
recently wrote the music for their first
original tune. They intend to create
more original music and hopefully record their first release in the near future
– and of course continue playing gigs.
“I’d love to play
live in Europe some day. I’m really
interested in Germany and of course England,” Michael states.
