The Invincible Kids

From TIK's Myspace :
About The Invincible Kids The Big Bang is this theory that everything in the Universe exploded from a point. The New Testament is this story where God knocks up a virgin (Mary) and when their kid gets nailed to a cross, everyone in history's sins are then/now somehow forgiven. The Invincible Kids are three lads realizing their minds are made of the Universe and powered by stars and that life sucks when people are Cruel & Corrupt but with the right girl by your side - we can live forever.
They have a microphone (Drew) a Fender Jazzmaster (Stos) a drum kit (Adam) and an iPod full of electronic compositions produced by the band in the wee hours of the night on laptop computers.
Drew has been: a pianist, a jazz trumpeter, a tap dancer, a music theater nerd, a metal drummer, a poet named Exacto the Phoenix Commando, an electronic performer, a straight-edge emo, a Photoshop genius, a stoned barista in Berkeley, a flash web designer, a screenwriter, a tragic hero with a heart of gold and a fist of fury. Lately he’s been playing the cowbell, the tambourine, a Roland synthesizer, and finding out about thermate. He met Stos for the first time at a BART train station in San Francisco when auditioning for his former band, Gentlemen to Evil.
Stos has been: a guitarist, a singer, a music teacher, a visual artist, a model Gemini, a comic book nerd, a teenage SoCal math-punk, a Nintendo fanboy, an L.A. transplant to the tundra, a MIDI/synth junkie, a hopeless romantic powered by weed, a Greek warrior on a quest for greatness, a Peter Griffin impersonator, a heartbreaker, known to blow smoke rings at sexy lingerie / hookah parties and rip mad solos out of the loudest Fender Super Twin amp ever created. Lately he’s been rebuilding his titanium-plated wrist, splattering ink designs on paper and painting digital files. He met Adam when he moved to Minnesota from SoCal to start a band with Drew.
Adam has been: drumming since childhood, watching his dad (Marty) play big band swing and jazz on drums, watching old VHS tapes of Buddy Rich, a track star, a snowboarder, a wake boarder, a McNally Smith grad, a party animal. He can fix sustain pedal wiring on the fly with duct tape and is skilled with the soldering iron and the iPod rock-stop. He's a fucking Bond driver behind the wheel. Lately he’s been getting his headphones stolen, getting shit-canned on boats, laughing when some drunk girl crashed into the trailer hitch of the band’s Suburban after a show in northeast Minneapolis [Fender damage, no one was injured,btw]. He met Drew through producer Jonathan Moehnke of Airborne Creative Studios where Adam is a studio drummer.
The Invincible Kids - Stos, Drew, Adam: good-hearted bad boys who melt Electro & Rock into a sound Daring & Sexual.
