Hotel Casino Band - "2028"

 Have you seen the ultra fun music video for "2028" by Hotel Casino Band? 

Watch it HERE!

Do you think a lot about the future? Where do you see yourself in five years? If you asked this question in 2018 to Stephen & Kenward from Hotel Casino Band, you can bet the answers from the two gentlemen would not have been “playing in a band together and releasing our first single in 2023.”

Like the lyric in the song suggests, “nobody knows what tomorrow may bring, only now means everything,” Hotel Casino Band's debut single “2028” is all about celebrating the moment. Much like during the global shutdown, when Stephen and Kenward reconnected their friendship, which dates back to their days in elementary school. That sense of wanting to enjoy again all of the experiences we suddenly couldn’t have with the lockdown, this became ever so important. It’s an urgency that can be heard in spades in “2028.” A song that doesn’t give in to long term plans. We’re in the “Insta-everything” era where it all moves by incredibly fast. Live up today and don’t let it pass. Take that vacation you always wanted. Check in with Hotel Casino Band and enjoy your stay.

Available now on all streaming platforms.

The Zeros Reunion March 18, 2022

Thirty years since the release of The Zeros "4,3,2,1" recording, the band has reformed to celebrate its glory, with a reunion show at The Whisky A Go Go in Hollywood, CA. The night can best be summed up in one word, FUN! It was kinda like a time warp back to 1988. The charismatic personalities of Sammy, Danny, Joe, & Mr. Insane still intact, and as remembered. This show wasn't a band trying to find their place again, no, it was as if they never left. Rockin' all the favorites like "Show Me," "Oh Yeah," "Sticky Sweet Girls," "Society," "Do You Want Some More." They hinted at the possibility of a new Zeros record to come. Speaking with Sammy afterwards, sounds like some more shows might be in the making as well. 

An honorable mention, Motorcycle Boy opened the show, and was great to see them as well. Doing songs off their "Popsicle" record from 1991. "One Punch" remains a classic trashy gem.

Hope it won't be long till we get to see these bands do it again!

RIP Joey C. Jones

 Joey C. Jones, 1962 - 2022, RIP
