"Childsplay rocks!
This young band plays with the authority of players twice their age and
experience. Their sound is raw and authentic. No artifice here - these guys
know and love this genre of music and it shows!"
LEE
AARON / Singer / Songwriter / Performer
“If you think the basic Rock or Punk
formula is over and done with you need to see the young new band Childsplay.
At a tender age they are making the old formulas fresh, and they are making
it their own. I think they turn out a believable performance, which is more
than you can say for many successful acts out there with 10 times the
experience.”

It's not your little brother's type of punk. It's
that real stuff reminiscent of California in the late 70's. HARD! Unlike a lot
of kids today, Jaden, William and Levin are keen to the fact that the world is a
pretty messed up place. Great energy, writing and musicianship belie their
relatively short time in the game. Get them onto your iPod and head into the
streets and be mad about something!
