About Band
BROOMSTICK WITCHES: BIO
My name is Rick Super. I'm the creator and producer of the gothic rockband Broomstick Witches. My band has been rocking through many underground music sites since the spring of 2002. I mostly rock alone. I play guitars, electric and acoustic, and also play keyboards and piano. I do all the vocals and write and record all the songs. I use a drum machine sometimes for drum beats. Last year I used some drum trax that a drummer friend sent to me by e-mail. We had a good collaboration and completed three full length albums. I wrote and recorded all the songs in my own professional recording studio known as SuperBalance Studio.
I have four stage personae I use when I perform my songs.
1) Metamorf, a glitzy sleazy gothic glam creature from Andromeda.
2) Johnny Blackstone, a punkish rock and roll vampyre pirate.
3) Psykogothikis, a demonic death metal psychogothic rocker who works for the devil.
4) Rick Supernatural, a magical mystical wizard who plays haunting dark romantic songs on keyboards and on guitars.
Since the spring of 2002 I have recorded seven full length studio albums in my own studio. I have also created many music videos which are available for viewing on some of my music sites. Many of my songs are available for free listening and downloading at about twenty internet underground music sites. Here are the Urls to my most popular music sites where you can listen to a good variety of my very unusual songs. Each one has its own unique personality which is expressed by the eccentricity of the persona who sings it.

Many of my songs have done well in the gothic rock charts at Audiostreet.net, Soundlift.com, and Unsignedbandweb.com. Some have been number one for weeks. All have been in the top ten. I've got a good collection of stats from my popular sites. My fans are mostly in USA and in Europe. I reckon about anywhere from ten thousand to maybe thirty thousand avid gothic rock fans have listened to or downloaded many of my songs. I have four albums available for sale through Cd Baby distribution. Also many digital companies have my songs available for download sales....greatindiemusic, rhapsody, itunes and others. I've received some royalty cheques for download sales. I've sold some actual cds but for the most part royalty income has come from digital download sales. I've got my own small record label known as Phionitides Records and I have my own small publishing company which I use to protect and publish my songs.
