Superchick, originally known as Superchic [k] , is an American contemporary Christian band. Their music incorporates various styles such as punk, rock, rap, and R&B.

History

Superchic [k] made its debut in 1999 at an Audio Adrenaline concert in front of an audience of 5,000. They continued to perform at live events throughout that year, self-releasing their first album in 2000. The album was re-released with three added remix tracks after they signed to Inpop Records, and became their first official album: "Karaoke Superstars". Since then, their music has appeared in several movies and television shows, including the movie Legally Blonde and the made for TV, Disney movie Cadet Kelly. Their music has received favorable reviews in both Christian and mainstream publications. Currently the band is working on promotion of their newest album Rock What You Got and intends to set out in fall for the "Rock What You Got Tour" in 2008.
