Send me your trackSEX THERAPY BEAT MIX (click the picture for link) NEW BEAT TAPE (click the picture for link)
-Some waffle taken from a Press Pack for a Promo CD. circa 2006.
"The Billion Dollar Quartet takes his name from “The Million Dollar Quartet”, which is the name given to the recordings of an impromptu jam session between Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash (it is a quiet nod to some great musicians and hell raisers from the ‘Golden Age' of music). He is an American citizen born in North London with close ties to his mother’s home city, Detroit, Michigan. Although B$Q’s sound is very individual you can definitely still hear the rhythm of Detroit pulsing though his music. Don’t take my word for it. Check it out....."
-Some Bloke Round The Way, Cracked Out Of His Brain. circa 6AM Monday.
"The Billion $ Quartet, what can I say? He walks with an I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK attitude and exudes an air of GET THE FUCK OUT MY FACE, all the while he manages to confidently project a casual WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? type of vibe. He is just that kind of a guy…… you know what I mean?...... so anyway, you got any change mate...... ahh, FUCK OFF then!!"

Yo The Billion $ Quartetasaurus. I just found out that we're related...and as a special family only present we've made a new song for you called "End of Days" (start doing backflips now). It's an epic instrumental opus to the moment when our ancient Dino relatives saw a large fiery object plummeting towards them. Please come to our page, give it a listen and let us know if it makes you feel like something catastrophic is gonna happen. If the song upsets you too much we will be holding several s support groups (read: comcerts) in the near future. Check our page for locations, dates and times.
