KICK- The INXS Experience Concert in Milwaukee

KICK - The INXS Experience is the USAs most captivating salute and tribute to the internationally acclaimed rock band, INXS.Formed in 2014, two years after INXS stopped touring, KICK - The INXS Experience has beautifully managed to capture the spirit of INXS in both its sound and live performance, bringing the highest level of musicianship to the audience while showing a true passion for the music of INXS. Vocalist, guitarist, and singer-songwriter Cory Massi is the founding frontman of KICK, and has long held a respect and admiration for the late great Michael Hutchence. Massi even auditioned for the reality TV show, Rockstar: INXS, in 2004, where contestants competed to become the new lead vocalist for INXS. What convinced him to audition? I loved Michaels singing and his personality, notes Massi. I saw INXS when I was a teenager in 88 and 89; they were great, and the people were just gaga over them. Michael left a big impression with his star power; he really had it, that guy. Our range is similar and I just went for it. I had to sing Mystify acappella so I was kind of nervous because I didnt have a band behind me. There was a camera a foot away from my face and it was out of my comfort zone; I would probably still feel uncomfortable today. I didnt get the gig: I was one of the last people to try out and I think by the time I auditioned they had already made their selection. No excuse: it was a good experience. We include Mystify in our set and when I sing it, I have my band with me and we love the music, so we play it with a lot of heart.KICK is already garnering the attention, admiration, and accolades of well-seasoned ears in the music industry. Radio personalities in several markets have been quick to offer praise; WZXL / Atlantic City program director Steve Raymond, a longtime fan of INXS, raved after listening to only part of one song, Wow! These guys have got the vibe down. Really impressive! 107.1 The BOSS (WWZY)s midday air personality Michele Amabile concurred, I had to go back and listen again with my eyes closed.... I could have sworn I was hearing Michael Hutchence! read more... shankhall.com
