HWY 42

The Road To Stardom

About Me

Raw talent is never hard to recognize. Hwy 42 is a mix of passion, dedication, and true Rock & Roll. Lead singer John Preston decided to form the band after breaking free from his former label. Already having a successful solo career John wanted to create the greatest rock band ever. Lennon once said If you continue to tell yourself your the greatest somehow it just happens. With the amazing leads of Shane Roberts, the smooth walking bass of Paolo Asuncion, and the phat beats of new comer Joe Sanchagrin great could truly be around the corner. I have been in a lot of bands in my time but none fit quite like this. It's all about the music... - Paolo Asuncion. Hwy 42 is a new band and a new sound. I want us to be like nothing else thats come before. - John PrestonIm just in the band to get chicks - Shane Roberts It seem Shane has taken my quote so I'll just say lets rock- Joe Sanchagrin Hwy 42 is currently Rocking the Bay Area and in production of their first album. Hwy 42 was recently nominated for Best Rock/Alternative single of the year in the 16th annual L.A. Music Awards. Lead singer John Preston has also been selected as a finalist for the song of the year competitiion. Keep your eyes open for the next big thing!!!!!!!! Hwy 42 In Memory of David James Miller
