Girls & Boys are a band from Santa Rosa, California who are quickly on the rise. Their heart pounding live performances have led them to play some of the top venues in California including the Bottle Rock Fest in Napa, Great American Music Hall, Mountain Winery in Saratoga, The Mint LA, Mystic Theater, Vina Robles Amphitheater, and The Sweetwater Music Hall to name a few, and to be recipients of the Bay Area’s Bohemian Best Indie Band in 2012. The band’s members consist of Brianna Lee Vocals – Guitar – Keys, Josh Barrett Bass, Mark Tarlton Drums, Nick Simmons Guitar and Ross Barbieri Guitar – Vocals. Led by the soulful vocals of front-woman Brianna Lee, the band’s dynamics back up her every move with power and grace making for a captivating live show.

Since the release of their debut album in 2012 people near and far have been taking notice of Girls & Boys. The album’s strong sonic quality and songwriting landed placements of four of their songs in Film and TV including 2013’s “Divorce Invitation” and the Showtime Reality series “The Real L Word”. With roots that date back to 2007 when bassist Josh Barrett and vocalist Brianna Lee met at an open mic their passion has always been a common one, to play music straight from the heart, with power, and soul.

Girls & Boys delivers a sound ranging from rock and pop to soulful and moody. The band always delivers a powerful performance with a chemistry that is undeniable both on and off the stage. Currently working on their next album the band can be found playing regularly and taking the show on the road in 2015.

Happy Fangs is San Francisco’s war-painted and wiry rock trio poised to release their first LP, Capricorn on January 27, 2015. SPIN has already praising their song, In The Morning, for its “righteous guitar crunch and relentlessly chugging drums.” Controlled Burn is commended by HuffPo Entertainment for its “pure raw energy and powerful vocals with a sexy edge in a free-for-all of creative styles blending perfectly together.” The album’s heaviest track, Lone Wolves was recently featured in Modern Drummer and described by Bloody Disgusting as a “blistering, ferocious assault on the senses, powered by pulsating drums, fuzzed out guitars, and in-your-face howls.”

Happy Fangs is a band of three front-persons. Vocalist Rebecca Bortman, formerly of My First Earthquake & guitarist Michael Cobra, formerly of King Loses Crown, played their first show as Happy Fangs in 2012. This January marks the one-year anniversary of the addition of drummer Jess Gowrie of Sacramento’s Im Dirty Too, a duo with Tycho’s Zac Brown. Together, the band creates rambunctious anthems, which SF Weekly describes as “insanely fun riot grrrl ferociousness.”

Happy Fangs’ live shows juxtapose strong black and white visuals with their contrasting pop meets rock sound. Each show is a flurry of enthusiasm, loud guitars and hard-hitting drums—the trio writes an original song at each show based on an audience’s suggestion. Some people say rock is making a comeback. Happy Fangs is proof that rock-n-roll is here to stay.
