Welcome

The Kids of Widney High are a group of students from Widney High School, a special ed. high school in Los Angeles, who write and perform original songs. The group started in 1988 as a song writing class and changes as the students come and go from Widney. The students perform in the L.A. area with a band consisting of Vince Licassi-guitar, Judy Rudin-harmonica, Tony Bollas-drums, Spero Anthony-bass, and Michael Monagan-guitar.

The KOWH Comic is here!!

May 30th, 2009

After months of anticipation, The Kids of Widney High comic “Beyond the Sky’s the Limit” is finally hitting the streets!  Written entirely by the members of The Kids of Widney High and illustrated by some of the comic book industry’s top talent, this gorgeous 36 page book is a milestone event in both rock n’ roll history and comic book history!

“This wasn’t some occasion where a celebrity rock band casually said ‘oh, we’d like you to make a comic book,” said editor/publisher Mike Wellman.  “The Kids of Widney High were hands on from the very beginning, telling the stories they wanted to tell.”  Every word of dialogue in the book was taken from extensive interview sessions with the eight members of the rock band and then compiled into a story of adventure and triumph.

A handful of very talented artists contributed to the book including: Robbi (Maintenance) Rodriguez, Rafael (Sonambulo) Navarro, Rikki (The Monacle and Jimmy Specs) Niehaus, Chuck (Black Metal) B.B., Neal (Negative Burn) Von Flue, Chris (Bainst) Brandt, and cover art by Jim Mahfood.

Although it will soon be available through the KOWH web site, right now you can order a copy by emailing Vince at kowhcomic@earthlink.net
