Balloon Boy Is In A Really Weird Metal Band Now

    Nine-year-old Falcon Heene, famous from the Balloon Boy hoax from 2009, is now in a political metal band with other middle schoolers.

    From the band's website:

    The HEENE BOYZ have made many appearances on television that include two times on Wife Swap, and have they been in the news for their storm chase adventures.

    The HEENE BOYZ might just be the world’s youngest metal band. Falcon Heene, age 9, is the lead vocalist and Bass player, Bradford Heene, age 13, plays lead guitar, and Ryo Heene, age 12, plays the drums.

    The band started in January 2011 in Spring Hill, Florida.

    Falcon Heene was born with an unusually high pitch voice that is unique and adds to the metal sound of the band.

    Their musical influences include Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Dio, Metallica, to Disturbed, Linkin Park, Van Halen and most everything else that is Metal.
