Meet the Black Out Band! -- kid rockers who are quickly becoming one of the hottest groups around! These childhood friends light up the stage and get the people on their feet wherever they perform their danceable mix of original songs and well chosen covers. The band’s members, Hunter, Matthew and Tug are pre-teens, but their music appeals to the young and not-so-young alike without being the least bit cutesy.
Their single, Video Games, elicits the laughter of recognition from kids as well as their forty to fifty-something parents each time a new crowd hears it. This comic ballad mocks the stereotype of today’s youngsters as spoiled rotten video game addicts. It's all clearly tongue-in-cheek and these hard working boys appear anything but spoiled. Most surprisingly, Hunter Watson's performance is Mick Jagger cool despite a refreshing absence of explicit lyrics. But what really makes the song stay on replay in the listener's mind is the catchy pop-style melody, with it's wry references to a diverse group of artists, from Dylan and the Monkees to the Black-Eyed Peas.
When not making music or playing video games Hunter, Matthew and Tug are just regular kids who hate homework, vegetables and waking up for school, and love sports, movies, fast food and just about anything on wheels!
You can find the release of Video Games on ITunes, Napster and numerous music download services.

Okay. I'm going to give my completely legitimate, mature opinion on your band. If at any time you feel like you want to sue me... well... we'll see what'll happen =) Okay. First off. Your singing. Sorry guys, I've heard William Hung sing better. I literally wanted to rip out the living soul of every single person that was in the room with me when I heard it for the first time. This is not only to me, but probably to most people that just want to hide it from you because they'll get sued otherwise (ever heard the phrase, "screw the rules, I have money"? I can see that describing you). Every single person I've asked (and this is a LOT) felt the same way I did.
Second off. Instrumentation. Two words: MUSIC LESSONS. For the love of God, I know people with mental disabilities that can play better.
Third off.. conclusion, I guess (not much else to cover). What I'm trying to get at here, guys, is that just because you have money, does NOT mean you have talent. I don't think I'll be able to hear the same way ever again. Please, for all that is good, keep playing video games and stop making music and spreading it around to people, getting on the news, and maki
