Tween Music Scene

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Soundcheck finds out what it's like to be a very young music fan in the U.S. and across the pond. First, we speak with Sam Killcoyne, the 15-year-old concert promoter behind London's inaugural Underage Festival. His event will bring 5000 teenagers -- and no adults -- to London's Victoria Park tomorrow. And later, we talk with Care Bears on Fire guitarist Sophie Kasakove and drummer Izzy Schappell-Spillman about getting a head start in punk rock. And, MTVNews.com Senior Editor Jem Aswad explains the bands, venues and parents that make up the local 'tween scene.
