SWEET FIX 'FM RADIO'

SWEET FIX is one of my new finds, or should I say they found me! Marco Santini, the drummer from the band, found me on a subway platform in Chelsea in Manhattan, coming home from a GMHC charity event that featured the fashions of Jean Paul Gaultier, Thom Browne, Sally LaPointe & Zang Toi. I was carrying a red book of about the legendary Diana Vreeland and Mr. Santini recognized me from a book that I happened to be featured in a few years back, entitled, 'Style File: The World's Most Elegantly Dressed' by Ike Ude, published by Harper Collins.

Marco came up to me (a little disconcerting, at first) and complimented me on my long brown velvet Etro great coat, which I had strategically thrown over my shoulders. He was extremely polite and ever so respectful (and hugely handsome too). He engaged me in a brief conversation whilst waiting for the train and inside the subway car too. After I introduced myself to him and he to me, he coyly admitted to recognizing me from that book which I had been featured in (Style File) and he graciously gave me a copy of their newest cd, 'FM RADIO'! I obviously was thrown aback, but flattered nonetheless and you know what, he found my website from Google (apparently I'm the only Image Guru named Montgomery Frazier in the world) and he emailed me the very next day! We started a form of correspondence, which led me to his group, SWEET FIX. After hearing their sound and seeing their video for 'FM RADIO' I've had a SWEET FIX-ation for the group ever since and they've been rising in viewers on YouTube for the last few weeks since our meeting. Thank you very much!

SWEET FIX reminds me of the pop boy-band groups of the early 80's! A fresh and uncluttered, yet very retro 80's sound with influences from bands like Cheap Trick, Foo Fighters, or a punk verion of The Flame, according to Mark Okon. The SWEET FIX lead singer, Tommy Walker, reminds me of a cross between Billy Idol and Keith Flint, the lead singer of The Prodigy. Marco Santini, Sweet Fix's drummer, looks like Kevin Richardson from The Backstreet Boys. But regardless of whatever influences or whomever they happen to remind me of personally, the band happens to be a very SEXY group of accomplished and talented young musicians with a penchant for COLOR...and I LOVE COLOR TOO and hot, sexy, boy-bands too!

'FM RADIO' their newest single release, is climbing on YouTube! I see a bright future for SWEET FIX.

Enjoy 'FM RADIO'.
