   About The Wonderstrucks
The Wonderstrucks trace their roots to 2005, when Rick Emerson and filmmaker Joni DeRouchie were seeking musicians to perform the soundtrack to Bigger than Jesus: The Diary of a Rock and Roll Fan, Emerson's autobiographical tribute to his hard-rock adolescence.

Answering the call were, among others, Andrew Greene, Brian Dueltgen, Michael Chriss, Jay Haygood, Jairus Minsky, and, as musical director, Christopher Morris. As the Bigger than Jesus house band, they performed flawlessly, elevating the film and enrapturing the audience.

As time elapsed, this group of disparate players transformed into an ongoing musical act in their own right, and with the addition of Emerson as vocalist and chief songwriter, The Wonderstrucks were born. With Morris and DeRouchie on board as, respectively, producer and art director, An American Education took shape, and was completed in the Summer of 2007.

An American Education can be purchased on CD at www.wonderstrucks.com, or electronically at the iTunes store.

99th most viewed video on youtube this week. We gotta get it even higher! Don't forget to rate it and send it to your friends and family and leave some great comments!

This is apparently(?) not an official thing at all, but wouldn't that be sick if it caught on as some internet viral video and thousands of copies were sold?

C'mon!

Thanks for pointing us to that S.O.N. :D
