Bush (Band)

Bush is a British Post-grunge music band formed in 1991. Their debut was a self-released album named Sixteen Stone; it was released in 1994. In Canada, they were once known as BushX, because a 1970s rock band, led by Domenic Troiano, owned the Canadian rights to the name Bush. In April 1997, it was announced that Troiano had agreed to let the them use the name Bush in Canada without the letter X, in exchange for donating $20,000 each to the Starlight Foundation and the Canadian Music Therapy Trust Fund. In Iraq before the fall of Saddam Hussein's government, radio referred to the band as "B-U-S-H", spelling out the name of the band so as not to seem to refer to either U.S. President, George H. W. Bush or George W. Bush. Frustrated by the disappointing sales of The Golden State and lack of support the band was recieving from Atlantic, the band decided to go on a hiatus. Band members went to work on various other musical projects notably Gavin Rossdale, and his new band Institute. In recent interviews, Rossdale said he hasn't ruled out the possibility of Bush getting back together, but says it is on the backburner at the moment.
