Seedless, B Foundation and Headshine

Seedless : A Reggae/Dub/Rock band from the heart of Southern California’s Orange County, Seedless was formed in the summer of 2006. Drawing together an eclectic group of individuals and quickly finding a sound of their own, Seedless has began to push the limits on reggae music. They have the ability to go from roots reggae to progressive rock to just about any style of music while intertwining the genres flawlessly. In between the political and climactic sound, Seedless keeps coming with fun, feel good reggae songs that are sure to touch anyone, anywhere from any walk of life. Seedless has played with many respectable musicians including: The Wailers, Katchafire, Tribal Seeds, Tomorrow’s Bad Seeds, Iration, Pacific Dub, Natural Vibrations, Fishbone, Through The Roots, Rebelution, Stick Figure, Pepper, Fortunate Youth, The Dirty Heads, The Aggrolites and many more. Seedless’ first full length album is set to release August 28th 2010, they have gained a nationwide following after releasing just 3 sample tracks off of their album. Priding on their live show and stage performance, Seedless is a must see, must hear band in 2010!

Headshine : Mixing acoustic coastal-rock and a feel-good vibe, Headshine takes you on a free spirited ride up the coast with a soundtrack of life, love and the space between. In spring 2009, a song that RAS wrote, sang and played on acoustic guitar caught the ear of producer Jim Perkins (Big B, Scott Russo, Cisco Adler, Kaleo of Pepper, Everlast). Jim showed the one-take demo to his business partner along with some other close friends in the music industry. For some reason, they wanted to hear more. Within a few weeks several new songs got the green light and the project developed. At our first show something came alive inside and began to radiate. It was like the feeling you get when you catch the perfect wave. It is what we now call Headshine, and it's about good vibes. Listen to the music and your head will shine. With a fresh California sound and songs about living life to the fullest, this emerging artist from Huntington Beach is now earning the love and support of fans from touring across the west coast, mountain and midwest regions. After recently opening for iconic bands such as England's renown English Beat, pop-punk’s Less Than Jake, national rock band Lit, The Supervillians, Sashamon, Prezident Brown and Jamaican reggae legends The Wailers, better things are coming and the future looks bright. Performer Magazine highlights the best independent music acts from the U.S. and is dedicated to being the first to introduce you to artists you should know about. As the nation's largest nationally distributed musicians' trade publication Performer Mag recently said, "The Huntington Beach singer/songwriter has cultivated a surfer/acoustic sound with a touch of reggae and California sunshine. With the backing of major-label producer, Jim Perkins and with the premiere of his first single "Better Things" on San Diego's 91X, things are definitely looking up." Headshine is continuing to grow in the college market with concerts at San Diego State University, Cal State University Long Beach, Whitworth University in Spokane Washington, Idaho State University, Fresno State University, Southern Illinois University and Cal State University Fullerton. Their debut iTunes release titled: Better Things has become a local favorite on 91X, Sophie103.7, 102.1 KPRI, 92.9 KJEE, and the band has recently performed events with 93.3 KTCL, X107.5 KXTE and 94.1 KSLG in Humboldt. Headshine just performed live on television at Sundance Film Festival in Utah, and was also featured in a new commercial by Metrolink. KROQ recently interviewed the band after they returned from a national tour to open for The Wailers @ House of Blues Anaheim. Headshine received 2 nominations from the 2012 OC Music Awards and their new song "High On Life" was featured by Surfline / Billabong in a video with US Open Surf Champ Brett Simpson that received 125,000 views. Rip Curl is now featuring music by Headshine in the 2012 Rip Curl Pro at Bells Beach in Australia. Headshine is finishing a new record with producer Jim Perkins and we have some big shows coming up, so feel free to add a comment and let us know what you think now on Facebook, Twitter or Tumblr.

B Foundation: Southern California’s hottest rising surf roots/rock band, THE B FOUNDATION draws influence from reggae rhythms, teen angst, and the salty waves of the Pacific Ocean. With three albums under their belt and a growing nationwide fanbase, The B Foundation has become a touring machine. The band spent Fall 2008 on the road opening for indie giant SLIGHTLY STOOPID playing 1,000 to 2,500 capacity rooms from coast to coast, coming off a nationwide co headlining summer Surf Roots Tour with Ballyhoo!. The band also toured extensively in Japan earlier this year playing 12 sold out shows! The stage is where The B Foundation truly shines and their live show is what sets them apart. Bands line up to tour with the B because of the infectious energy and passion of lead singer Patrick Stevenson, bass player Jason Moorehead, lead guitarist Joe Fkany Jr. and drummer Ian McGrath. Previous touring partners include THE EXPENDABLES, BARRINGTON LEVY, SLIGHTLY STOOPID, EEK-A-MOUSE, FISHBONE, DIRTY HEADS, IRATION, VOODOO GLOW SKULLS. and more. The B calls their musical style “kick-ass” and that’s exactly what the band is doing! The B Foundation’s CDs have gotten a great reception as well, moving over 20,000 units of their full length releases ‘The Deep End’ and ‘Trouble Standing’ in addition to international licensing and distribution deals in Japan (Surfrock International/Pony Canyon). The B hasn’t relied on label support to move records but rather their D.I.Y. mentality, a direct connection with their fans, and word of mouth that always accompanies good music! An album of rare unreleased tracks ‘Bee Sides’ is the buzz of the internet, and a brand new full length album is slated for Spring 2009. The B gets radio play across the country on both major alternative rock stations and college radio. Here in Los Angeles the 1 station World Famous KROQ 106.7 is playing "Rincon" and "Spliffed" nearly every week on Kat Corbett’s Locals Only show, and Indie 103.1 plays “Spliffed” on Native Wayne’s Reggae Smoke-In. KROQ also featured “Spliffed” on their Locals Only CD with 10,000 copies given out on the Warped Tour and other events. The B has also done countless on-air interviews and live performances including KROQ, Sync Live, KJEE Santa Barbara, ThePier.org, Flashrock.com, Marijuana Radio & more The music is being featured in all types of multi-media including Bud Light using “Rincon” in their commercial for the Vans Triple Crown of Surfing, “Dirty Girls” on Margarita Wrestling/Amp’d Mobile cell phones, “Say It in Sin” on Body Glove’s GPS Japan DVD, compilations such as Sense Boardwear’s ‘Poetry in Motion,’ One Big Family (Japan), Forever Free: A Tribute to Sublime, Resin Music’s Surf Roots 2 Benefit for the USA Surf Team, and the “Be Alright” music video in the Surf Roots DVD. With their motto “Say No to Emo” and amazing live shows, the B has become known as the go-to band for good time party vibes! SWAT has tapped the B to play their El Nino Winter Trip on Dec.21st in Lake Tahoe for over 1,000 high schoolers along with Rebelution & the Dirty Heads. The B also played SWAT’s college Spring Break in San Felipe, Mexico last March, as well as events such as the KROQ Microbrew Fest at Santa Anita Race Track, the KROQ stage of the N.H.R.A. World Finals at Pomona Raceway, Float the Boat on the Queen Mary with Pepper and Bank of the West Beach Games/US Open of Surfing. The B is very thankful for the dedicated hardcore fans of the B Foundation street team!!!
