Massi even auditioned for the reality TV show,Rockstar: INXS, in 2004, where contestants competed to become the new lead vocalist for INXS. KICKis officially endorsed by Tina Hutchence, sister of the late INXS frontman Michael Hutchence, and has garnered the attention, admiration, and accolades of well-seasoned 'ears' in the music industry. Radio personalities in several markets have been quick to offer praise;WZXL / Atlantic Cityprogram director SteveRaymond, a longtime fan of INXS, raved after listening to only part of one song, 'Wow! These guys have gotthe vibe down. Really impressive!'107.1 The BOSS (WWZY)'s midday air personalityMichele Amabileconcurred, 'I had to go back and listen again with my eyes closed.... I could have sworn I was hearing Michael Hutchence!'Sounding like legendary frontman Michael Hutchenc eis no easy task. 'I guess the hardest thing, the most challenging thing when I started KICK,' acknowledges Massi, 'was capturing the great variety in Hutchence's voice. He can sound sensitive and soft and he can be super strong and really belt it out and sometimes that all happens within one phrase or even a word. It took a lot of self-control to capture how he projects his lyrics and the music. It's impossible to really sound and look like him; he's an Adonis, another Jim Morrison, Morrison in a pop sense. I can't mimic that; all I can do is do my best to capture his spirit.'The focus has been on faithfully recreating the music in its most powerful sense; an in-the-pocket bottom end from bass player Don Leslie and drummer Gary Forbes, a brilliant combination of piano and synth by John Cassidy, the signature guitar tones produced by guitarist Todd King and Jason Taylor, the beautiful saxophone by Jaared Arosemena, and the spot-on lead vocals byCory Massi, all lend to a powerful high-energy show.KICK-The INXS Experience will take you back. It will reignite your passion for INXS. It will introduce you to music that is still as fresh today as the day it was written; from 'Original Sin' to 'Elegantly Wasted' and everything in between, including (but not limited to) 'Need You Tonight,' 'New Sensation,' 'What You Need,''Don't Change,' 'Listen Like Thieves,' 'The One Thing,' 'Bitter Tears,' 'Suicide Blonde,' 'Not Enough Time,''Beautiful Girl,' and 'Devil Inside." The band hears it, time and time again:'This was like seeing INXS all over again, I'm their biggest fan.''That was such an awesome surprise; I'd almost forgotten how much I love INXS!''I came thinking I would only know a couple of songs, but I knew every single one-and the words, too.''Cory Massi is Michael Hutchence 2.0, fabulous!'</p><p>Tickets: <a class='ai1ec-ticket-url-exported' href='https://www.etix.com/ticket/p/5894858/kickthe-inxs-experience-new-hope-the-new-hope-winery'>https://www.etix.com/ticket/p/5894858/kickthe-inxs-experience-new-hope-the-new-hope-winery</a>.</p>
