Planet Booty Shelter-In-Place With New Singe & Video

PlanetBooty_Stars.jpg

2018 and 2019 were huge years for Oakland’s Planet Booty with tours all around the US with TWRP and Ninja Sex Party. Then in January 2020 the trio announced an East Coast Tour this Spring, but before that tour could happen, COVID-19 struck the world and put everyone on lock down.

If anyone thought shelter-in-place could stop Planet Booty from entering your minds and bodies, they were surely wrong. The band adapted quickly and released their newest single “You’re A Star” on March 24, followed by the music video in mid-April showing off their dance moves and creativity at home.

Tour dates have been rescheduled for September, so let’s hope the world gets a little bit back to normal by then! If you haven’t seen this extraordinary band live yet, you’re missing out. It’s worth every dollar to see their high-energy, stage commanding, theatrical, and fun live show that’s bound to get your body moving!

Flipsyde Joins Barb Rocks Booking Roster

Flipsyde_logo.jpg

I am beyond stoked that Oakland alternative hip hop trio Flipsyde has joined the Barb Rocks Booking Roster!

Mixing together rap, rock, political awareness, and introspection, Flipsyde utilize their diverse backgrounds to create ambitious, revolutionary music. Their 2005 hit "Someday" took the world by storm and they had a deal with Interscope Records from 2004-2009. They’ve opened for Snoop Dogg and The Game and toured all over Europe, Asia, and India. They played Jay Leno, Conan O’Brien, Soul Train Music Awards, and X Games; Flipsyde even wrote the anthem for the 2006 Winter Olympics and performed in the video with Team USA.

After a 10 year hiatus, Flipsyde is back with a new single coming November and a 6 song EP Flipsyde Prophecy releasing early 2020. I’m in process of booking them shows, so stay tuned to see them live! Check out their EPK: https://flipsyde.bandzoogle.com/flipsydeepk

Oakland dance trio Planet Booty released their newest music video “Junk In The Trunk” today! The video theme is all about celebrating your sexiness that may result in a religious experience no matter where or who you are. The song features rapper El-Gun Legro and the video includes a lot of local fans. I myself almost made it to the filming, but sadly had something come up.

Planet Booty + Barb Rocks = Bootylicious Team!

I am proud to announce that Oakland trio Planet Booty, known for their infectious live shows filled with endorphin-fueled electro-funk dance music, have joined the Barb Rocks roster!  If you haven't experienced Planet Booty yet, then you're missing out on the most entertaining band the Bay Area has to offer!  Not only do their performances pack venues every time they play, but everyone at the show raves about it for days after.  Frontman Dylan Germick is a true performer in every sense, engaging the audience with every look and body movement, add in Josh Cantero's powerful, soul-filled vocals, a dash of horns, plus Rob Gwin masterfully holding down the rhythm section, and you have the hardest working three-piece with a big sound that gets the audience dancing until the last unforgettable note.  I recently had the front row experience with some Planet Booty grinding on the dance floor, including a sweaty forehead serenade from Dylan, therefore, I can personally guarantee the euphoric feeling one has leaving the show. I cannot rave enough about this talented band that I truly believe will go far.  Planet Booty just played two packed SXSW official showcases in Austin last month and are scheduled to play the Oregon Eclipse Festival in August.  I am beyond honored to be part of their team and help them achieve their goals.  The band is going on tour twice this summer and releasing a new album, so there's a lot of work ahead.  I encourage you to watch their latest video for their new single "Naked" and to follow them on social media:
