KillRockStar Big Dog Entertainment are excited to present
90's pop rock legends The Presidents Of The United States of America live in
Australia in 2013 playing their classic, 5 x platinum, self-titled debut album
in its entirety along with all their greatest hits.
In 1995 Seattle outfit Presidents Of The United States of
America launched their self-titled debut album and in the process took the
world by storm with their unique take on guitar based pop rock. Armed with
their uniquely modified electric guitars, an arsenal of perfect infectious pop
hooks and super-smart songwriting skills the band scored massive hits around
the world with the singles Lump, Peaches and Kitty. Whilst there was no
doubting the extreme catchiness of POTUSA's songs it was the undeniable sense
of humor and fun with which they were delivered that really won the affection
of music lovers of the decade.
The Presidents Of The United States of America's connection
with this country has been a long and fruitful one with the band wholeheartedly
embraced by Australian music lovers with their first two albums going five
times and two times platinum respectively. Off the back of their 2004 album
Love Everybody The Presidents toured Australia to packed houses selling out all
shows in record time, so much so that they were back in the country playing to
adoring fans some six short months later.
Formed by childhood friends Chris Ballew (lead vocals,
two-string basitar) and Dave Dederer (three-string guitbass, backing vocals),
the duo played together in a number of projects before forming The Presidents
of the United States of America in 1990. The newly named outfit recorded a demo
tape, which began circulating around the Seattle musical community and, in the
process, earned them a cult following. Drummer Jason Finn joined the band in
1993 and within a year the Presidents became one of the most popular bands in
Seattle.
