Sick Puppies are a three piece guitar-fueled rock band, hailing from Sydney, Australia. Consisting of Shimon Moore (guitar, vocals), Emma Anzai (bass), and Mark Goodwin (drums). They are currently based in Los Angeles, where they released their second album, “Dressed Up As Life” in April, 2007.
In 1997, Shimon Moore and Emma Anzai first met at Mosman High School through the school’s music program. They connected because of their shared appreciation for the band Silverchair. They began jamming on Green Day, Silverchair and Rage Against The Machine songs until the urge to make their own sound took over. It was during this time they recruited then-drummer Chris Milesky. Months later, they won Triple J’s competition ‘Unearthed’ with their song ‘Nothing Really Matters’. That same band released their first album, “Welcome to the Real World” where they received an award for Best Live Performance at a rock festival in Sydney, Australia.
The band gained worldwide international attention with their single, ‘All The Same’ which was featured on a video created by Shim for his friend Juan Mann. The video was posted to YouTube and quickly became an internet phenomenon where it reached over 26 million views. The video documents Juan Mann’s Free Hugs Campaign that further launched the group into the spotlight with appearances in Oprah,Jay Leno, 20/20 among other well known Television shows.
Having successfully sold 59,000 copies in the U.S with “Dressed Up As Life” under their belts they are releasing “Tri-Polar” on July 14th 2009, with the new album not even released yet they have garnered more fans and gained more success with the hit songs “Street Fighter (WAR)” [featured in the Street Fighter IV commercial] and “You’re Going Down” [featured in the Pay-Per-View WWE Extreme Rules] off the album, with even more success coming their way Sick Puppies kick off their headlining tour on the 8th of July in Pomona, California.|
