Artist History Hollywood is packed with hundreds of hungry bands willing to do anything to claw their way to the top. Who would have thought that one of those unknown bands would have the CAHOONAS to turn down big money offers from THREE MAJOR LABELS just to preserve their independence and maintain total artistic control? If you think YOU CAN HANDLE THE TRUTH, straight-up and unfiltered by corporate tampering then order this CD.

Press Reviews "I now measure a person's coolness by whether or not they have a Ballswicke cd." --- Rita Marie Baca (Modern Times Publishing 1/25/99)"Ballswicke has a sound I've never heard before...The lyrics drew me in consistently!" --- Alison Sumner (Studio Call magazine 10/9/99)"It all felt familiar, but in a good way. Like he was singing about someone I knew." --- Lou Erickson (Picks & Stix 8/16/99)
