BEAUTIFUL CREATURES

Bio:

The seductive swagger of rock-n-roll is eternal, and one of the finest American practitioners of this raw, dangerous, heart pounding style is Beautiful Creatures.

Hailing from Los Angeles, California, Beautiful Creatures is a band that believes in Rock-n-Roll and Rock-n-Roll believes in them. "We've always believed in ourselves, even when no one else did" says the raspy voiced LeSte, "We're all about perseverance." This was shown to be true, soon after Beautiful Creatures was formed in 2000, it didn't take long for the band to get noticed. They have released two high octane fueled discs. The band signed with Warner Bros. Records and released their self-titled debut album in 2001 and then their sophmore release, Deuce with Spitfire Records in 2005.

"1 A.M." and "Ride" appeared on the 'Valentine' and 'Roller Ball' movie soundtracks. Beautiful Creatures' music was used on several television shows as well. "1 A.M." was used in 'Smallville' and "Wasted" was played on 'The Man Show' to name a few. Off of the Sophmore CD DEUCE the track "Anyone" was used in the television show 'Sons Of Anarchy' and "Freedom" will be used in 'The Proposal' coming to theaters in June 2009.

To get a full dose of Beautiful Creatures you have to see them live. Their high-energy, unapologetic rock-n-roll show will pull you into a swirling vortex of killer riffs and crushing rhythms that leave you wanting more."We're like five heathens from hell coming at you from all directions" claims Kweens. "Once we hit the stage you can't take your eyes off of us, we own it," continues Kweens. In 2000, the band first opened up for KISS on a short leg of their Reunion Tour. Then they tore-it-up across the country with the Ozz Fest Tour in 2001. In New York City they filmed a live concert for HBO's 'Reverb.' Still thirsting for more, Beautiful Creatures played out the year on the Rolling Rock Tour, before heading overseas for a headlining tour throughout Japan in 2002. Other shows and tours followed, but none like the American Whore Tour in the winter of 2005. “We love touring and playing live. It's a lot like sex. There's a give and a take, a push and a pull, everyone is sweatin' and screamin' and it feels real good in the end," declares Kweens. He also goes on to say that the band claims that the name Beautiful Creatures is all about the fans. "The tattooed misfits, the pierced freaks, the outcasts, the groupies, whatever you want to call them. We call them Beautiful."
