Internet-Marketed Bands: None Hit Wonder and I Nine
We have two reviews in our Internet-Marketed Bands this week. Both have beautiful, though not similar, genre pounding beats. Today we have None Hit Wonder and I Nine.
Mike Moore leads in a band called "None Hit Wonder." Though his influences include MXPX and Greenday, they don't reflect on his sounds or writing. To this end, he remains freshly original, sometimes rewriting entire portions of his songs to make sure it isn't a copy cat of another band's work. This is a fresh relief to this reviewer. His audience ranges between the ages of 16 and 25, catering to the pre-yuppie, post-angst crowd. He barely falls into the Emo category, but only on technicalities; people see a solo guy with an acoustic guitar and he immediately gets lumped into that genre. Feel like seeing him? You can catch him in the Tampa Bay area, and if you are good enough, can snag him at the Masquerade. He's been known to play at Orpheum, Brass Mug, and the list goes on. The crowd big catch is the way uses his voice to portray his writing style, culminating in an original vocal ballet.
"I Nine" is a rock band from Atlanta, GA. Most recently, they were featured in the Cameron Crowe film Elizabethtown, performing the lead single "Same in Any Language" on the soundtrack. If you're interested, you can check out our music and our music video for "Same in Any Language" on our Myspace profile: http://www.myspace.com/inine
