There is a line between insanity and genius that indie superhero, Mark Mallman has built a career on. There is something so engaging about his personality, solid songwriting, and wild stage persona that it's impossible not to be intrigued!
Glam-rocking Minnesotan cranks out flash-pot, binge-celebrating anthems of surprising cleverness with this hit single and video for your addictive enjoyment, "Monster Movies", which will leave you in awes with his mashed up vintage and space age techniques to achieve a unique, yet classic sound!
With 15 years of touring under his belt, his music/art experiments and retro-70s style has rocked the airwaves of countless radio and media outlets, as well as being written about by Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, USA Today, Wired, NME, The Toronto Star, Chicago Sun-Times, the Denver Post and so on. Mallman continues,
“Yeah, my records have always been retro half breeds, but as far Monster Movies goes, I wanted to take it vintage and full blast 2014 in the same song. Now all I gotta do is invent a flux capacitor time machine, and start saving for a Delorean.”
Hot Tub Johnnie and the Hunnypot team did it again.
Hot Tub started the evening and kept it going long and hard with super party music. Bobby Green was the first to pop into the Hot Tub for a perfect get to know Bobby interview that teased his crushing DJ set later in the show. Bobby's original single "Lights" is a Hunnypot favorite. Chris Jackson let us know about his deep music business history and love for the songs with his custom playlist that featured Prince "Superfunkycalifragisexy" just hours before he passed. The Proof. lived up to their name and provided evidence of super soul talent. Nova Rockafeller got down with her problems onstage, Blimes rapped mellow and strong with bay area beats, Buckwheat Groats pushed the limits of respectable entertainment just how we like it. L-Boogie made a birthday splash in the tub with his streetwise rhymes, Bobby Green closed out the night. Listen now, tell a friend! 4-18-16

Texas native, Bobby Green has topped the Hype Machine charts with three consecutive releases…and he’s showing no signs of slowing down. His current single "Lights" features infectious vocals and an upbeat/tropical chorus, "Lights" is a worthy candidate for your ‘Favorites’ playlist. Bobby explains how the track originated:
“The first words that came out of my mouth when I started writing this song were “putting all your lights on.” And I could never get those words out of my head. What Whitney and I eventually realized was that this was a song about the walls that we put up around ourselves, and the way that we often fear a world that fears us back. “Lights” is about the disconnection we all feel, and about the great things that can happen when we open up and show the world who we are.”
Bobby will be spinning his favorites in-between the artists sets and rockin' the Dance Party!

An unconventional take on groove, with funk influences, a brush of the blues, and soulful vocals. The Proof. formed in the summer of 2015. Drew Dolan (Vocals/Keys) and fellow band mate Geramie Laufersky (Guitar/Vocals), broke away from a previous project to collaborate on a new sound. After crossing paths with Ian Murray (Bass) and Lucas Crouch (Drums), the band progressed rapidly and found themselves in the studio within a month’s time, recording their first EP.

Born in Canada, raised in Negril, Jamaica, and having bounced around America, including stops in New York and LA, Nova Rockafeller, who is of Ukrainian, English and French descent, realizes she'll initially be lumped in the "white girl rapper" category, but according to her that's OK, "as long as they say ‘rapper.'"
Nova Rockafeller, first and foremost, is about her skills, which is something some may not initially realize when they take a look at her unique fashion sense that includes custom made jewelry from her Toys On Chains line, and duct tape modified thrift store t-shirts that she plans to market as a modified street wear line "so girls of all body types can modify them." She is imaginative, she is colorful, and she wants to rap circles around her competition. Hunnypot Approved!

Ancient Sumerian texts tell of a man with boogie so pimpaliciously slick, that the world could not withstand the weight of his almighty funkification. He was born in a maelstrom of smoke and fire, schooled by the legends of Shaolin, and set upon this world to seek that mighty groove, tweak it till it’s smooth, straight up freak and bust a move.
This legend of boogie was deemed too powerful by the elder gods of groove, and so it was decided to seal his spirit away. For thousands of years the spirit of this titan of twerk lay dormant only to be awoken for a single night each year, for if his boogie lasted any longer the cosmos could be torn apart by his vociferous vibrations.
Lo and behold: the great L-Boogie hath arisen from his slumber! Payeth him tribute with dope-ass dance moves & belligerent bong rips, lest ye soul be cast into darkness until he riseth once more.
Buckwheat Groats classic "Tom Hanks". See them LIVE this Monday April 18th @ Hunnypot Live! at The Mint
Looking forward to Bobby coming to LA and playing the Hunnypot Party April 18th! Ask us about licensing!

Fronted by Elkhart, Indiana’s Jimmy Herald, Hillbilly Herald is rock ‘n’ roll for those starving for a break from fast-food, radio-repeated, sugar-shock pop. Influenced by the late 70’s rock of AC/DC and Aerosmith, their hard-hitting songs like “Shame on Me” and “Sucker Punch” pull concert-goers into a world of gritty, no-frills, in-your-face attitude that Slash calls “One of the most kickass R&R bands around” and KISS’s Gene Simmons calls “The future of rock and roll.”
True to their hard-working, blue-collar roots, Hillbilly Herald is a working-class band for everyone hungry for an honest, pull-no-punches rock experience that is the genre at its finest. From their initial eponymous release “Hillbilly Herald” in 2009, 2013 EP “Sunday’s Best” to their upcoming 2016 EP release, Jimmy is backed by Adam Wolf on bass, Louie Riel on drums, Tommy Peacock and Ben Leroy on guitars.

Kendall Morgan is a singer/songwriter hailing from the indie rock hub of Nashville. With her haunting vocals and infectious hooks, she has steadily evolved from a softer, soulful sound to a more rhythmic, urban vibrato.
Channeling Morgan's flair for urban grit meets catchy pop writing style, she is a unique lyrical presence that defies genres. Whether it is a hook for a hip hop song or an acoustic driven melody, Morgan seamlessly glides between the contrasting styles. This versatility, combined with her chilling vocals, have led to her recent collaborations.
Morgan appears on Tech N9ne's album Something Else on the track "Fragile", also featuring Kendrick Lamar, and on Yo Gotti's album I Am on the track "Don't Come Around" as an artist and co-writer. She is currently working on her solo project to be released soon.

Bonnie Bishop's songwriting dream came true in early 2012 when her hero blues legend Bonnie Raitt recorded her song "Not Cause I Wanted To" (co-written with former NRBQ guitarist Big Al Anderson), earning Bishop her first Grammy and putting the Austin, Texas native on the map. Voted Song Of The Year by The New York Times, the song went on to gain national attention for the young artist when Raitt had this to say about her: "Bonnie Bishop is very special - I think she is going to be a big star."
In 2013, another of Bishop's songs made its TV debut when the hit show Nashville used "The Best Songs Come From Broken Hearts" for its star character Rayna's comeback performance at the Opry. A self-proclaimed road dog with a signature rasp, Bishop first became well-known for her dynamic live performances, making her living as a full-time touring act for well over a decade in clubs, theaters and festivals across the US and Europe and building a loyal fan base beside Americana greats such as Robert Earl Keen, Paul Thorn, Lee Roy Parnell, and Radney Foster.
In 2015, Bonnie proved that she was unafraid to reinvent herself with the launch of her brand new original series “Story & Song,” a unique storytelling experience that marries Bishop’s writing voice with her heartfelt songs of redemption and healing. This earned her an invitation to the prestigious MFA Creative Writing program at Sewanee University of the South this past summer, where she is now working towards her Master’s degree in Non-Fiction writing and developing a screenplay. Her Story&Song series is available exclusively on bonniebishop.com.
As of most recently, Bishop returned to the studio with Grammy Award winning producer Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson) to record her sixth album, a soul project. “Ain’t Who I Was” releases May 27, 2016 on Thirty Tigers (RED).

In an Internet world where anyone can create a Soundcloud account and upload music, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to break through the noise. In order to rise to the top, an artist either needs to be really good, really original, or really lucky – usually some combination of the three. LA-based experimental pop musician Ramsey fulfills the two former requirements. Over the past few months, hundreds of thousands of people have flocked to her Soundcloud to indulge in the enigmatic songstress’ music.
“2am” is Ramsey’s latest single, following “Slave” and “See You Bleed”—both of which were premiered in the past two months. Seductive and ghostly, "2am" draws life from the singer’s indelible voice. Somehow, she has both a smoker’s husk and the lithe command of an opera singer. The strange combination leads to an unsteadying listening experience that mirrors the woozy, Portishead-like trip-hop in the fore. There’s never any question of control, though. In slithering glissandos, Ramsey oscillates between vaporous and mighty, conjuring the beguiling effect of the siren.
“It’s 2am now, run the red light,” she urges, beckoning to us, asking us to break the rules. It’s easy to imagine her doing so in the corner of a darklit jazz club in the crevices of Los Angeles. She’s seated atop a stool in a crimson red dress, black hair and long eyelashes falling toward the floor. A trail of chains and roses recede away from her into the darkness; do you run the light? The fact that she even makes you think about it is testament enough to her skill. -MacEagon Voyce

Tesha (Neta Tia Elias) is a musician, producer, and singer raised in Tel Aviv, currently based in New York City. Tesha’s dreamy soundscapes have landed her impressive gigs at legendary venues such as the Cameo Gallery (NYC), SoFar Sounds (Seattle), Pianos (NYC), Kung Fu Necktie (PA), and CMJ Festival in New York City.
Tesha’s recent touring of the United States preempts the anticipated release of her debut album, DREAMS VOL.1. With an established US following, Tesha hopes to find a record label to pick up the album.
DREAMS VOL.1 was produced by Tesha and Noam Helfer of the band Helfer. The album was mixed by Roi Avital (Garden City Movement), with mastering by the legendary Matt Colton (James Blake, SBTRKT, Lapalux). The album’s unique shadowy and airy sound is orchestrated by the use of multiple foreign objects, all carefully layered atop flowy instrumentals. TESHA’s voice draws the listener into her dream world, made up of light and shadows, spiritual visions, and the unknown.
DREAMS VOL. 1 acts as a soundtrack to TESHA’s dreams, a thoughtful and textured space that is brought to life with rich instrumentals and vocals. This creation of a fantastical space is meant to urge listeners to acknowledge the creative capacity of their personal realities.
Tesha is highly involved in every aspect of the creative process, from producing her own tracks and live shows to cultivating her own image. Tesha found fame early in her musical career with her former band Thin Drapes. The duo took over the Berlin music scene, getting nominated for their single "Tonight" as the best track at the Berlin Music Video Awards in 2013.
Tesha participated in this years’ CMJ Festival in New York City and gained a warm reception from outlets such as The Deli Magazine and QRO Magazine. Tesha was also nominated as The Deli’s Artist of The Month for November 2015.
