Mötley Crüe

Hailing from Los Angeles, CA, Mötley Crüe — Vince Neil (vocals), Nikki Sixx (bass), Tommy Lee (drums) and Mick Mars (guitars) — has commandeered the rock pantheon for 40+ years and continues to do so with John 5 on guitar. The band has sold over 100 million albums worldwide, garnered 7 USA platinum and multi-platinum albums, 22 Top 40 mainstream rock hits, 6 Top 20 pop singles, 3 Grammy nominations, 5 New York Times best-selling books, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and a Netflix hit movie. Mötley Crüe continues touring the world with John 5 on guitar as they push the visual limits of live performance. 

The quartet has amassed over 5 billion streams across digital platforms and the band has over 8 million followers on social media. Known for their iconic live performances, the band has sold out countless tours across the globe in front of millions of fans with groundbreaking production highlights such as Tommy Lee's drum-rollercoaster and Nikki Sixx's flame-throwing bass. They pioneered the Las Vegas rock residency with a sold-out run in 2012. Mötley Crüe's hit songs such as “Kickstart My Heart” and “Home Sweet Home” are frequently licensed by major brands such as NASCAR, Dodge, Coldwell Banker, Carl's Jr., and KIA to name a few and their music can be heard on TV hit shows such as Stranger Things and Cobra Kai amongst many others. 

The band’s biography “The Dirt: Confessions of the World’s Most Notorious Rock Band” became a New York Times best-seller in 2001 and has sold over 1 million copies worldwide. Members of the band have authored 4 additional New York Times best-selling books since. In 2019 Netflix premiered “The Dirt” biopic based on the bestselling book which became a global hit movie scoring a 94% positive audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. As a result, Mötley Crüe gained an entire new generation of young fans who discovered the band through the movie and further solidified their iconic status, relevance, and the timelessness of their songwriting. 

Mötley Crüe remains a huge global draw 40+ years into their career and, in the summer of 2022 co-headlined a nearly sold-out North American stadium tour with Def Leppard. 

 

Phil X & The Drills

Hailing from Toronto, Canada where it all began, Phil X started out like a lot of teenagers with a guitar in their hands and dreams of the big time. Since the age of 14, he left every concert knowing that someday he would be the one on that stage. 

Well… although it took a REALLY REALLY long time, it happened. On April 14, 2011 Jon Bon Jovi contacted Phil to prepare for the possibility of standing in for Richie Sambora for the BON JOVI tour in progress. Even Phil didn’t think this was possible but it happened. TWICE. After the second time filling in for Sambora in 2013, Phil stayed on and has been the guitar player for BON JOVI ever since.  After over 200+ shows, Phil claims he still gets goosebumps kicking into Livin’ On A Prayer calling it not only an important song of his youth, but one of the best Rock songs ever written.

After Phil met his first wife, Ninette Terhart, and they honed in on their collective craft until they wrote material they truly believed in and took the plunge relocating to Los Angeles. Formaldehyde Ride turned into Rhino Party, turned into POWDER which became a staple in the Hollywood Club Scene selling out the larger venues listed in the LA Weekly. Ninette started incorporating Cirque Du Soleil type acrobatics into the already visually stimulating show while singing the bands anthemic songs (yes, about 2 years before P!NK). 

THE DRILLS!!! Even with the regional success of POWDER, Phil grew stagnant and felt another project with himself being the sole creator would be more artistically gratifying. THE DRILLS became Phil’s therapy. He wrote like a maniac, at one point writing 11 songs in 11 days which all eventually surfaced over 3 EPs and 1 full length album.

When the guitar demo videos Phil was co-creating with director Dustin Jack for Fretted Americana on YouTube became popular, Phil was exposed to a wider audience and continues to be recognized for those incredible performances. It was at this point that THE DRILLS became PHIL X & THE DRILLS.
