Influences
Rising from the clubs of San Diego, and the ashes of several local bands including the last band of the late “Ratt” guitarist Robbin Crosby, V Child broke into the “Indie Rock” scene in 2008 with their debut demo CD, V Child. Dave Rolland the editor of "CityBeat" magazine says Ken Najbert's fantastic baratone voice reminds him of early "Pearl Jam" and "Soundgarden" The band's latest single “It’s a girl” was recently showcased on “Good Morning San Diego” see video link above. V Child mixes Ken Najbert’s versatile and hypnotic vocals with effervescent guitar work to fashion a disc overflowing with well crafted and memorable tunes. Ken has played on stage with Weezer and was coined by Dweezil Zappa as “the human air horn”. Dan “KretinRock” Smith on drums and Ron Call on bass complete the rock solid rhythm section that has had comparisons to some of the best! With standout tracks like "Royal Maya Crypt," and “The Day After” hitting the radio airwaves far and wide, V Child is an essential addition to any music lover's library . Kaos Tom’s band review of their first live show at Dreamstreet said: “LISTENING TO THEM I FELT I WAS CATCHING A RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS / ROBIN TROWER FEEL AND KEPT THINKING OF CANADIAN BANDS LIKE BTO AND RUSH. I THINK IT WAS SOME SORT OF VIBE THING. IT TURNS OUT THE GUITARIST & SINGER (KEN NAJBERT) IS FROM CANADA. SOMEHOW THEY CREATED THEIR OWN ORIGINAL SOUND.” V Child" has many musical influences including:
Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, 10CC, Eagles, Beatles, Lynard Skynard, ZZ Top, STP, Metallica, GNR, Motley Crue, Kiss, Zappa, Rush, Bella Fleck, Phish, The Grateful Dead, Black Sabbath, Cream, Muddy Waters, Van Halen, Neil Young, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Elvis, Beatles, Metallica, The Police, The Cars, CSN&Y, Pearl Jam, SRV, AC/DC, Miles Davis, R.E.M., Santana, Alice N Chains, Janes Addiction, The Rolling Stones, Tom Petty, The Clash, Snoop Dog, Dr. Dre, Beastie Boys, U2, J.

I would like to share with you something I was moved to write::
I hope you are doing great my friends... and i hope you are copeing with MJ's flight into the heavens.... We are all sadden and hurt.. but we must keep the faith.. as Michael Says, and keep going and show how he has touched our lives. I'am proud to be a Michael Jackson Fan...from the beginning to the end.. i have never lost faith in Mike and i never will... Please allow me to walk beside Michael and be like a shadow to him... I'am happy that individuals feel that i sound like him,, and remind them of his sweet voice... But there is only one Michael Jackson, and their will never be another... He's a icon of epic porportions... I'am glad to of been the generation that got to see him up close and witness his magic... I'am always thinking of you Michael day and night.. and i only hope you are looking down on us, and never leave us alone....for we are not alone... You have givin us the opportunity to see the limits of Gods power when he bless someone with a Gift... You are surely a work of Art, a Masterpiece that is glorious to behold. Your entire body would execute moves that would boggle the mind... and dazzle one's eyes. How can we not watch you when you are in your Zone... The Stage bow down to you , and the Mic sings your praises.. We have heard you and we believe you were from God... and have returned to live forever in his kindom. I can almost see the angels saluting you as you walked thru the gates of heavens.. i hear the applouds of every angle in heaven as you walked towards God to recieve your crown, and your robe made of light. You are home now.... and we will see you soon... Love Marion Pharoah dont forget to enter into my contest see my Bulletin...
