Josh Allen: Bio

Stiff Trixy - My Band

Well, Stiff Trixy is an old band with new soul. Not necessarily an old band, considering they are all still minors. They were previously known as Turning Point, but due to the fact that there are hundreds of bands named Turning Point they changed their name. Plus Stiff Trixy just sounds cool. Turning Point had a good run, and they learned a lot. Stiff Trixy has all the same members, except the drummer and the singer. Now the lead guitarist, Josh, is the lead singer, and Connor Pickle is now the drummer. Connor was actually Turning Point's original drummer. Turning Point just got back from a tour in Costa Rica, was placed on the Grammy list this year (Thanks to Al Gomes @ Big Noise), went on a national tour with Adema, and played with Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper, Shadows Fall, and Queensryche at Locobazooka in Boston, Massachusetts. Josh has been on two international tours including a tour of Southeast Asia last year with a band from Dallas called Strangleweed and the tour in Costa Rica with Turning Point. This band does not lack experience or excitement. The members are Josh Allen (20)-Lead Vocals/Lead Guitar, Jason Sharpless (19)-Guitar/Backing Vocals, Jay McKee (20)-Bass/Backing Vocals, Connor Pickle (19)-Drums/Percussion. It's a shame that Turning Point had to end, but Daniel Hayes, the previous lead singer, went to devote all of his time to his new band, Six Bullet Roulette, you should check them out at www.myspace.com/ivbulletroulette. The changes have been made for the good, and Stiff Trixy is excited and ready to continue this saga. We just recently signed a record deal with Second City Records out of Chicago, IL. We are very excited about these guys and know that we are going to make a great team. They will be releasing our full length debut album soon. A release date has not been set yet. However, it will be available for purchase on this site. I will also have new music up soon.

Our Debut Album, "it's Not All Just Black and White", is now complete and is available on iTunes, Rhapsody, Napster, eMusic, Zune, and other online outlets...hope that you all enjoy..peace
