KIDFORCE is the brainchild of Rhett Raha, who started performing in a hard rock band at age 14, began writing and recording by 15 and played his first gig at the same age, when he won a “Battle of the Bands” at B.B. King’s at Universal Citywalk in Los Angeles. At 19 he dropped out of school to pursue music as a career with his band Kid Force. A chance meeting in Hollywood with Euro-pop band The Black Pony led to a swift collaboration with guitarist Eugene Flitner. The resulting song, “Crush,” made the band’s album and was a hit on their “Crush Tour 2011.”
By the summer of 2011 the other members had left Kid Force, so Rhett appropriated the name KIDFORCE for himself.
