Bio

DO YOU WANT TO PARTY OR NOT? We made the cover of the August 2002 issue of Detroit's JAM RAG as the featured artist(s). (One of Detoit's main music magazines) Our song "Bigger and the Better" is featured in Jeff Daniel's (Dumb and Dumber etc..) recently released movie "Super Sucker". We were chosen as a "Show Case" band for the 2002 EAT'M Conference. We've played the House of Blues in Las Vegas Nevada. We've shared the stage with Kid Rock. We are an officially Sponsored JAGERMEISTER band, along with the likes of Saliva, Pantera etc. (Although our music is not as hard) We've taken Detroit's summer festivals by storm. (They were surprised and want us back) You can check out www.masqueradeband.com for more information.

Also, as of April 11th 2003 we had 5 of the top ten (rock) songs in BROADJAM's Michigan region and 2 of the Top 10 songs (THE BIGGER IN THE BETTER) in the over all (rock) category. Plus, on 9/11/2003 our demo version (we were just goofing around recording wise) of "The Cigarette Song" made the top ten for the EARTH on this service... Which we thought was pretty funny.

We are also getting some radio play locally around Michigan. WRIF, WPON, WKJC (It's so cool to hear yourself on the radio) LOL
