Sixx:A.M. is the new Hard-Rock project formed by Mötley
Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx, guitarist DJ Ashba and singer+producer
James Michael.
Nikki Sixx was born Frank Feranno in San Jose, California USA, on December
11, 1958 and grew up in Seattle with his grandmother. At the age of 17,
he sold his guitars and took a bus to Los Angeles, where he began hanging
out in local clubs and playing in bands. He founded Mötley
Crüe in 1981 with friend Tommy Lee.
Few bands were as influential as Mötley
Crüe in making the '80s the Heavy-Metal decade. Theirs is a cyclonic
story of runaway success and its price, blending outrageous record sales
and arena headline tours with smashed up cars, jail sentences, models,
drugs, breakups, reunions and more breakups.
"The Heroin Diaries", is a book drawn from Sixx's 1986 and 1987
journals, when he was in the throes of a heroin addiction.
Due September 18, "The Heroin Diaries" offers an unflinching
and utterly gripping look at Sixx's descent into drug addiction with a
soundtrack, featuring James Michael and DJ Ashba, to match. "Life
Is Beautiful", is the first single from the upcoming CD.
