The Indie-Rock trio Sick Puppies was formed in Sydney, AUSTRALIA, by
singer+guitarist Shimon Moore and bassist Emma Anzai in the music room
of Mosman High School in 1997. Initially with Moore on drums and Anzai
on guitars, the duo would frequently meet up to play alt-Rock cover songs
and eventually felt compelled to write their own tracks. Soon Chris Mileski
was added to the band to fill in on drums.
Sick Puppies started attracting significant attention when their song,
"Nothing Really Matters", won the Unearthed competition run
by the only national radio network in the country, in 2001. Later that
year they released their debut album called "Welcome To The Real
World". The band's first year culminated in them being crowned the
Best Live Act at the Australian Live Music Awards. Since that time the
achievements and highlights have flowed thick and fast, including tours
with Good Charlotte and legendary
Deep Purple.
The Australian indie-rockers, now comprised of Moore, Anzai and new
drummer Mark Goodwin, have signed to Virgin Records in the United States
to release their second album, "Dressed Up As Life", which includes
the Hot Mainstream Rock smash song "All The Same"; the track
is featured in the video of Juan Mann, a man in Sydney famous for initiating
the Free Hugs Campaign.
