Superchick made their debut in 1999 at an Audio Adreanaine Concert in front of five thousand people and through out that tear they kept rocking it! They self-released their first Album Karioke Superstars in 2000 and the songs appeared in many movies like Kadet Kelly and Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. They have grown out of their garage band phase and now tours all over the world, currently going to Texas, New Jersey and even Brazil. Although many of thier songs have hit number one here are the current top five songs by Superchick according to iTunes:
Stand in the Rain: Recently number one from their album Beauty From Pain 1.1,the song describes what someone shoud do when all else fails. The song tells the story of a young girl who has gone through alot in her life and is about to give up. Stand in the Rain encourages those who can't go on anymore to push through the pain and they will overcome the hurt and stand up for what you believe in no matter what the cost."It so easy when something horrible happens to just stay busy and jump into other relationships or drugs or alcohol. Sometimes to get through things, we must stand in the rain, experience them, dig deeper—you just have to go through it. Another song that we just released" Says Tricia Brock, Lead singer of the band.
We Live: "We Live", was inspired by a friend who was told he had cancer and only three weeks to live. He made calls to people, made amends, took care of all that stuff. Then he went back to the doctor and the cancer was gone. I hope that gives people a reminder that you don't have forever and that you need to live your life" Tricia Brock expresses. This song came first came out on the album Beauty From Pain and was put in stores in 2005.
Rock What You Got: This incredibly upbeat song was an accident when The band was at a store and a man in a wheelchair came up to them and said hello to them. the man was really comfortable in his own skin and they could see he was very confident and thought he was cool. Then Max Hsu blurted, "That guy is really rocking what he's got." and that is how the song came to be. The song expresses that people should be confident in who they are and happy with what they do and no matter what others say, everyone should be themselves and be proud.
Hero: in school, there is always the freak, the dork or the outcast that gets teased and even beat up. This song has three different stories in it and they are all powerful. The young boy that brings a gun to school because he is ridiculed, the teen girl that cannot take the pain anymore and the popular teen male that enjoys parties and drinking but forgets that his brother looks up to him. This song tells everyone that even the little things people do can make a big change in someone's life, that they can be a hero to someone.
Hey Hey: this last song was based on the reign of King Nebuchadnezzar who made an idol and told his people to bow down to it. Three men were thrown in the furnace because they said it was against their belief and they didn't die. This song is an anthem for those who have stood up for God and were beaten and abused because of it, for those who were not afraid of standing up for what they believed in.
Superchick's mission in life is to encourage kids to be themselves and follow God with all their heart. They know that there are alot of people out there that are depressed, drunk and suicidal and they want their songs to reach out to those who hurt. Recently Melissa Brock has sponsored tow african children from an organization called Compassion and Both Melissa and Tricia has joined Operation Beautiful, an oranization that encourages women and young girls that they are beautiful by sticking post-it notes on the mirrors of public bathrooms. Their recent album is now in stores called Reinvention with several brand new songs that lift up this generation.
