HIGH TEEN BOOGIE
HIGH TEEN BOOGIE is a KICK ASS, hard hitting, all Japanese girl band with killer tunes and a pure sense of Rock 'n’ Roll. Fast and tough thundering bass and drums, over the edge guitar, and radical lyrics make them more than just another cute girl band. Their influences are classic punk with an undercurrent of boogie and blues.
Thrown out of Japan for their outrageous and totally irate behavior, these girls found a new home in New York City. HIGH TEEN BOOGIE was formed when Nonlee and Yuka first met in 1997 at a sushi party and found out that they had the same taste in music and attitude. Since then, HIGH TEEN BOOGIE has played at CBGB'S, Continental, Webster Hall, and has blazed a trail through the NYC club scene and beyond. Their songs have also appeared on TV’s Comedy Central. With Nonlee on bass, Yuka on guitar, and Hitomi on drums, HIGH TEEN BOOGIE is known for their notoriously fun live shows and is a band that must be seen.
Reviews:
"High Teen Boogie is three Japanese firebrand rock vixens on a mission to make you shut up, dance and recognize good rock'n’roll when you hear it! These girls are talented, ferocious and yet very nice people, gigging constantly in New York and bringing the party with them wherever they go. Displaying a true-spirit punk rock attitude, and great, infectious poppy hooks, the band is high energy but not just clones of every punk band you’ve ever heard. They’ve got the shoe-to-your-teeth attitude and sloppy Skronk, without so much the disassemble-it-all minded sensibilities of Pussy Galore crossed with Ramones style good time power. They also show their own Japanese style and flair in every song. True punk music is great because no matter how many punk bands you have heard, a good band makes the beloved style their own and fresh as ever. High Teen Boogie are no exception. They are better than that, a band whose energy and pure belief in rock transcends and delights and whips you up into a frantic state of “it’s my Birthday” music fan punk glee." ---Crusher Magazine
"Hysterical Japanese punk rockers whose raw, freak-out outfit has garnered many an admirer, especially for their sincere and certainly energetic live performances.---- Village Voice
