Modern Science is an alternative pop band from Las Vegas, Nevada founded by Kane Churko & Mike McHugh with funk, electro, hiphop and R&B influences. Canadian songwriter/producer Kane Churko is the front man and lead singer for the band and primary writer and producer of all of Modern Science's music. Kane is the son of producer Kevin Churko who is also a frequent co-producer of the band's material.
Kevin Churko is also known to play drums on occasion for Modern Science at their rare live shows as well as on most of their recorded material. The band is known for their improvisational live shows that often include special guests from other entertainers that they work with.
In January 2010 while opening two nights at the Hard Rock cafe for Simon Collins the band announced that they would release one free song every month leading up to their second album and that it would feature a lot more hip hop elements as well as collaborators such as Del The Funky Homosapien and Reallionaire Jream. This follows in line with their history of releasing their self-titled debut album on their own independent record label MIMORTL Records for free online as well.
The pair put on a critically acclaimed performance at CMJ Music Marathon 2010 in October 2009 in New York City along with frequent live band members Charles Henry, Michael Spadoni, Nick Helbling & Kevin Churko.
Kane Churko and Mike McHugh are currently listed as celebrity judges for national Battle Of The Band's contest "A Fight For Fame".
Following their two singles "Every Little Thing" and "Look Where You're Walking", Modern Science was released in 2009 on iTunes as well as for free on the band's website. Their track "Look Where You're Walking was nominated for Jack Richardson Producer Of The Year at the 2010 Canadian Juno Awards for Kevin Churko & Kane Churko's work on the album. "Look Where You're Walking" has also nominated in the Top40/Pop category for the 2009 International Songwriting Competition judged by Robbie Williams, Rob Thomas, Timbaland and more.
