Bush (Canadian band)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bush was a Canadian rock band in the early 1970s. The band, consisting of Domenic Troiano, Prakash John, Pentti Glan and Roy Kenner, released a single album in 1970.

The band regained some notoriety in 1995, through an intellectual property dispute with the British alternative band Bush. As Troiano still owned the rights to that name, the British band were forced to release their albums in Canada as "Bush X".

In late April 1997, Troiano and Gavin Rossdale reached an agreement under which Rossdale's band were permitted to use the name Bush without the letter X, in exchange for donating $20,000 each to the Starlight Foundation and the Canadian Music Therapy Trust Fund.
