Ugly Kid Joe started on the road to success when their rock anthem "Everything About You" became an unexpected hit worldwide. The band headed by snowboarder Whitfield Crane, released their platinum selling debut album. "America's Least Wanted" back in 1992. They have toured alongside such rock giants as Def Leppard and Ozzy Osborne and their last album "Menace to Sobriety" was a smash hit both stateside and in Europe. The band Ugly Kid Joe has a new album out called "Motel California" which was mainly constructed in a garage in their hometown of Santa Barbara, California. The band insist that all five members of the group fully invested their hearts, minds and souls into it and the album is by all means well worth your time to listen to it. Ugly Kid Joe has a truly magnetic personality, an ultra-electro-personality! Does that make sense? Of course not. But listen to the music and it will. The personality is in the music. The raw, blasting energy is in the music. The diversity is in the music which is so important. Ugly Kid Joe is brimming with Rock n' Roll credibilty. The are serious yet fun musicians who know how to give kids across the world the very distilled essence of the groovily tasty diverse hard rock which they oh so crave. The band has come a long way from their first worldwide hit "Everything About You". However, their role is still very much the same. Ugly Kid Joe are a band who exist to make music the way they want to.
