Badfish is a sonic house party complete with plenty of gyrating fans sipping libations and enjoying various extracurricular activities. Badfish is feel-good music. For almost 25 years, the Rhode Island-based band – Joel Hanks on bass, Scott Begin on drums, Pat Downes on vocals and guitar, Danny Torgersen on horns, keyboards, and guitars – have successfully paid tribute to Sublime, the influential California group that brought ska-punk and reggae-rock to the mainstream. Badfish’s heartfelt celebration of Sublime’s musical spirit and legacy is so sought-after that they’ve headlined theaters, sold out shows, and played 15-20 gigs a month. But now, Badfish is more. After two decades of Sublime reverence, Badfish originality is stomping into high gear. Badfish recently released its second new song, the anthemic, groove-fortified “F You Pay Me,” with special guest Grieves, as the follow-up to the band’s first single, “High With You.” Now the Sublime repertoire is nicely augmented by fresh original tracks that blend seamlessly together. KRUEL SUMMER Kruel Summer is a rising indie rock reggae band from San Jose, California, bringing the soundtrack to your best nights—and your worst decisions. Comprised of Clev Stiles (formerly of The Holdup), Ben Dimmit, Shane Billings, Matt Condino, and Chris Reed, this eclectic group is making waves with their unparalleled sound and infectious energy. Inspired by good times and summer vibes, Kruel Summer radiates a classic California feel that instantly hooks listeners. Blending rock, indie rock, pop, reggae, and hip-hop, the band pushes boundaries with a genre-defying sound that bridges musical worlds. With every release, Kruel Summer immerses listeners in an energetic, spontaneous world where great music fuels unforgettable nights. So, turn it up, let loose, and embrace the Kruel Summer vibes.
