In case you missed The Who reference in the title YES these U.S. Kids are doin’ alright and YES they have been rockin’ hard for nearly 30 years. Just as rock seems to run through the blood of all members of The Who, the same can be said for U.S. Kids. As one of the Tri-State area’s most entertaining bands, U.S. Kids has been playing to fans of all ages since 1983.
The group is made up of four crucial members: lead singer, songwriter & keyboardist–John DiCarlo, Bobby Pizzoferrato on bass & vocals, Carlo Volhl on guitar and Greg McIltrot on drums & vocals. U.S. Kids has definitely got staying power and these musicians play together like one tight-knit operation. You can feel the camaraderie and closeness when you hear the music and you see U.S. Kids perform live.
