FOREVER THE SICKEST KIDS
Band : Forever The Sickest Kids
Website : foreverthesickestkids.com
Hometown : Dallas, Texas
When, where and how did the band come together : We have six members and actually its three pair of guys who went to school together and we were all brought together by our other band in the Dallas local music scene. Jonathan and Kyle went to school together Burleson High School with Kelly Clarkson. They were in a band with Kyle's step brother Marc and Kent called The Flipside. Marc and Kent went to High School together, and Caleb and Austin grew up together and were in an acoustic band called Committed. Jonathan reunited with Austin after initially playing shows together, at Dallas Baptist University where Kent also was attending college.
Best description of your sound to someone who is yet to hear you would be... We sound Like a mixture of a super Bowl Ring and cowboy hat thrown into an empty Stanley Cup. Sort of similar to Garth Brooks in his prime, (when he was flying)
Someone who isn't too familiar with your stuff, which release would you suggest they start with?
Start with Hot Party Jamz then move to Television off, Party On!, Then finish by rocking out to Underdog Alma Mater which is the Full Length. Came out in America April 29, 2008, and is loaded with heaterellis.
What is your latest release, give it a plug, tell us about it. Underdog alma mater our full length came out on on Universal Records april 29, 2008 its hott!
Favourite song to play live.. and why? She's A Lady and Hey Brittany both just ignite the crowds those tie in my eye.
If you could go back in time and write any one song.. what would it be.. We are the champions by Queen
Most memorable moment / best achievement with the band to date would be... Performing on Conan O'Brien and Being on the front cover of Alternative Press Mag.
Have you toured with any of the Soundwave bands before? If so, give us a quick story.. Yes several were on warped tour with us and have become friends and valencia was on one of our first tours with us.
Which bands on the Soundwave lineup are you most likely to be found partying with after the show? Tim McGraw and Alterbridge
Who in your band is the party animal? Give us a quick story on antics of the past.. Our trailer is the party animal out there when we r on the road, we r about to have to drop her off.
You haven't been to Australia before... What have you been told to expect by fans / other bands etc. Hot weather beautiful beaches and ladies.
Thing you are most looking forward to about coming to Australia this summer? Seeing what the animals look like in person on the outback!
Is there anything you "just have to do" while you are in Australia? Go to an Australian church service to see how the churches compare and afterwards lasso a kangaroo like a steer in Texas :)
If the rider fairy was to grant you one wish, what would be awaiting you backstage at the festival. Fresh sushi and a bloomin onion!
You should catch us when we play Soundwave because. Our show pwns noobs and can't be missed!.
Any Final words... Forever the sickest kids love Australia and we hope we can find a few Australian friends that will show us the hottest crazes in toys and Australian pop culture while we are there! Cheers mate!
