HOT TUB JOHNNIE and the Hunnypot Radio crew delivered a big night of music. HOT TUB dropped a set of tunes that featured music by TEENAGE BOTTLEROCKET, BEARHEART, 2 CHAINZ, and BELOVED BINGE.
KCRW Veteran JASON KRAMER stopped by and threw down a killer set that featured KANT, THE LAKES, and MATT WOODS.
ARIELLE DEEM kicked off the live music with a groovy performance of songs from her debut LP Now Place Like Now followed by New York transplant and electro-pop up-and-comer BECA. Once the tone was firmly established, NICKY DAVEY turned it upside down with his patented blend of r&b/rock fusion, after which MARLEE EAST took the stage to cap off a truly eclectic evening of live music.

Beca reveals a fresh, dark, fearless sound that’s all her own. Musically gifted at a young age, she graduated from the Juilliard School and traveled the world, performing with an array of artists while developing her own path and voice. Bursting onto the indie pop scene in 2012, her first two EP’s were released via UK label, This Is Music Ltd. (Charli XCX, Little Boots). The breakthrough hits earned praise from Filter Magazine who said “her talent for whimsical sounds and a breezy voice is worth listening to over and over again” and from Stereogum who described her music as “wispy, ethereal electro pop.”
Nicky Davey is a rock and soul band from Los Angeles, CA. Founded by Hollywood’s wunderkind vocalist Nicky Green and Lincoln, Nebraska’s prodigious guitarist Davey Rosser.
Seamlessly blending the sonorities of NWA era west coast G-funk with the country air-like serenity of bluegrass and southern rock, it’s clear the band breaks the mold of cookie cutter industry corporate rock that inundates the contemporary landscape. Welcome to a new era of rock and soul. Follow @NickyDaveyMusic

We’re invoking ole-ole-ole all around. In a rare (collect) call E.T. told us it was A.O.K. to feature him in his Arc de Dumpdump Atari 2600 video game.
Not only did we make a video from a previous album without having finished videos for our current album, but we also used archival footage from Lost in Space and the US Army. On the video game front, Defender also makes an appearance.
Nothing says alienation from people like aliens. Enjoy.

A surf-rock/oldies inspired band with a new twist and shout. Like a hydro-electric Surfaris Mothra rising from the ashes of an African village burned to the ground by minotaurs from Buddy Holly's personally shaded zoo garden in the sky. http://thenewelectricsound.com
Playing Hunnypot Radio Live at The Mint Feb. 9th 2015!
Kicking off our live music segment was Indie Folk Singer/Songwriter, JULIET PIPER. Juliet performed songs from her Wonder & Time EP. Our next guest was London based songwriter, CHESNEY HAWKES. Best known for his 90's pop smash "The One and Only", Chesney is still at it and continues to write and produce based in LA. Chesney joined us for a special sit down interview and live performance where he delivered a calming and joyful acoustic guitar and piano set. Joining us from our own backyard, was SWING HERO performing a tasty alternative post-punk rock that left us all with a rebel attitude. THE WEST COAST BOUNCERS hit the stage real hard! Residing in LA, they spun a killer set, you need to experience. Closing out the night was N0VEL who's Dance/Pop styling sparked the dance party.

Approximately 50,000 singles were released in the UK during the nineties. With five weeks at the top, the twentieth most successful release of that entire decade was ‘The One and Only’, the lead song from the soundtrack of the film “Buddy’s Song” sung by a 19 year old Chesney. The song has gone on to be the subject of numerous compilation albums, TV ads, TV theme music, film soundtracks and, now a student anthem, continues to top ‘Best pop song of the nineties’ polls.
Chesney has worked with writers and producers from a broad section of the industry, among them Mark Goldenberg (The Eels), Jesse Valenzuela (The Gin Blossoms) and Counting Crows producer Marvin Etzioni. Other collaborators include Howard Jones, the Police’s Stuart Copeland, Nik Kershaw, Bijou Phillips and more Rob Davis (co-writer of Kylie’s Can’t Get you out of My Head). Artists continue to cover his songs and he has had material recorded by three international Pop Idol winners. Tweet @ChesneyHawkes chesneyhawkes.com
Conceived by Marshall Gallagher (ex-Solar Bear, touring guitarist for 3OH!3) in 2011, Swing Hero is an amalgam of shimmery dreamo and virtuosic post-grunge. The delivery is heavy, pretty and deceptively straightforward. The subject matter: growing up and dealing with heartbreak is exhausting, no matter who you are. Music fans will find a nostalgic comfort in layer after layer of warm guitar, mid-tempo pocket grooves and vocals that are both lyrically sharp and melodically contagious.
For the band, 2014 brings the prospect of at least one brand new release, shows spanning the west coast and midwest, and a chance to prove their true prowess in the wake of their recent relocation to Los Angeles. Swing Hero is climbing steadily, gunning for soft spots and sentimental hearts around the globe. swingheroband.com Follow @swinghero
DJ Serafin & Jared Lee Gosselin
Individually these two have conquered modern music. From underground dance to classic rock, these two super DJ/Producers have energized every note and beat possible. But together they form one of the newest and most watched production teams of today “The West Coast Bouncers” featuring guest vocalists Fatman Scoop & Blake Lewis will soon be a name to surpass the countless number of awarded songs and remixes the duo has individually accomplished.

Sophia Grace is your new #1 girl. She just dropped her new music video "Best Friends" and boy, do 2nd graders know how to party. Sophia and her best friends dance down catwalk have an elaborate shopping spree at Kmart and Sophia throws down some serious rap game. Whether or not the video was intentionally hilarious, it had us laughing pretty hard and left us thoroughly entertained. We can't wait for the next one Sophia!

Meet Mighty Mark!
East Coast representative is taking names and playing the game right with his tight beats. Hell, he has been working so hard, he is successfully running his own label, Zoo On Mars Entertainment, including but not limited to: Mike-Mike, Dollas Tha Producer, K.S, and TT The Artist who raps on this specific track. Bringing in the new school with a touch of old school club sound, it's undeniable that this Baltimore native is bringing, "some heat to the kitchen!" We chose his cooked up song, "Ping Pong," for our Hunnypot video pick! Guaranteed to get the party started! The music video is filled with funky visuals and booty shaking which compliments the song perfectly. You got some competition Miley Cyrus!
Thank you Leah and All Access Music for coming out and covering the event!
BAD LANDS does it again! Mowgli and Rocky's, "Shotgun," leaves you with your head in the clouds thinking about your old high school lover.
BAD LANDS sings in their catchy hook, "Take Me Anywhere," and so we brought them here...
VIDEO PICK of the week!!
Popping champagne in slow motion is always attractive, especially when you got this tune bringing it to life.
The good vibes definitely echo when listening to BAD LANDS and it makes sense that they are from LA!!
Props to BAD LANDS, for a killer single!
I think I speak for all of us when I say we want more!
