Bio

New Generation Superstars are:

AJ (vox & rhythm guitar)
Davey Messiah (lead guitar)
Dazzle Rebel (bass & backing vox)
Chris Reed (drums).

NGS are consumed with the need to play rock music, the way it was intended. No Frills, No fuss, just pure energy and enthusiasm for their craft. Their growing fan base is more like a family. Loving the ethos and performance the band lay at their feet, with anthemic choruses, heavy bass lines and melodic guitar riffs. NGS are joined by new member Dazzle Rebel (former Red Star Rebels) in May 2010.

Hailed by the UK rock press, NGS captured the reason why, in their debut album “Crash Course in Rock n Roll” (2007). Laid down in a record four days, with Grammy Award Nominated Producer Alan Smyth (Arctic Monkeys/Pulp), and equalled with second release “Raising the Stakes” (2009), which received the same praise. These releases have seen NGS attracting worldwide attention, with distribution and sales in the UK and countries such as Japan, Finland, Spain, Italy and the USA.

Hailed by rock fans and media critics alike, NGS captured the reason why, in their debut album 'Crash Course in Rock n Roll'. Laid down in a record four days, with Grammy Award Nominated Producer Alan Smyth (Arctic Monkeys/Pulp).

Kerrang! magazine award a KKKKK live review, and named NGS “serious hope for British rock!’. The band was also approached after a worldwide search by Classic Rock Magazine, to feature on the "Sons of Guns 2" cover mount CD, and have continued to be featured in Kerrang! , Big Cheese and Classic Rock magazines.

Relentless touring with many home grown and international acts has led to the band jointly playing sold out shows at the Mean Fiddler (London), Underworld (London) and Rock City (Nottingham). A triumphant set at the Rock and Blues Festival to 2,000 rock fans, the Hard Rock Hell Festival, the prestigious City Showcase in London and the headline slot on the second stage at The Bulldog Bash have all brought much deserved attention. Alongside this NGS have been handpicked by Bruce Dickinson to be featured on his Radio 6 Rock Show and invited to play Rock City with Duff McKagan’s Loaded. Furthermore, tours with LA Guns, Love/Hate and Vain at their request, continue to secure NGS’ reputation and future as one of Britain’s main underground rock talents.

With a style that has attracted fans from all walks of life, and tastes in all genres of music, New Generation Superstars are continuously forging their way from the underground rock scene into the worldwide arena
