Superchic[k]
was formed after Max (keyboards, guitar and turntables) had
spent time on the road with his group, Church of Rhythm. They
heard firsthand from their fans about the issues teen-agers
face. Issues like growing up in a culture where being good-looking
is valued more than being good. About this same time, Max
was corresponding with a fan whose email name was Superchick11.
Superchick11 shared with them this story: The popular people
at school told her that she could be part of their group if
she dressed like them. The next day, she showed up with her
gym clothes on over her clothes. She made her point, won her
fellow students respect, and was even elected homecoming queen.
Superchick11’s story inspired Max to start this group
and spread the word that it is “Safe to be Ordinary”.
The word Superchic[k] has become a gender-neutral term used
to describe someone who isn’t controlled by culture.
They know they are a unique creation and don’t have to
follow the world’s path. A mutual friend introduced Max
to brothers Matt (drums) and Ben (bass), who eventually introduced
him to lead guitarist Justin. Sisters Tricia (lead vocals)
and Melissa (guitar and harmony vocals) met Max at a Newsboys
and Church of Rhythm show. They left their seats, and upon
returning, found Max and friends sitting there. They met,
he told them about the Superchic[k] concept, and they auditioned
on the spot.
Soon Superchic[k]
was recording, touring at festivals and Acquire The Fire conventions,
and getting notice by record labels and film and television
music supervisors. Superchic[k]’s debut album, “Karaoke
Superstars”, was released on InPop Records May 22, 2001.
They are featured on the Festival Con Dios tour and will be
touring extensively throughout the United States during all
of 2001. You can also hear Superchic[k] on MTV’s The
Real World, ESPN’s Winter X Games, The WB Network’s
Jack & Jill, and featured in the MGM film “Legally
Blonde” and Columbia Pictures film “The Glass House”.
