EP 30: Boostive
We couldn’t think of a better band to get in for our 30th episode than the mighty Boostive from Ocean Beach CA. These are some of our favorite people and musicians in town, and together they make up a collective that is starting to get the respect they deserve around the country and world. We got to joke around and talk about all of their big accomplishments like opening for and working with a lot of their heroes like Vaughn Benjamin RIP, Lee Scratch Perry RIP, Zion I RIP Zumbi, Slum Village, Slightly Stoopid, Bonobo, and Thievery Corporation to name a few.
The group got its roots when Seiji Komo (bass), Dr. Dylan Webber (guitar), and Nathan Kocivar (keys, sax) started making music together in High School. The guys moved up to Santa Cruz to go to college where Seiji discovered sampled music and fell in love. The collective has been growing and evolving since then and now includes Divina Jasso with some of the most powerful and beautiful vocals. Her lyrics are poetic and thought-provoking. Along with the all star band including Malachi Johnson on Drum Kit, Mitchum Yacoub on Percussion, Ty Kiernan on percussion, Kani on Djembe, and Wesley Etienne on Trombone this group makes music that moves you physically and spiritually.
We got to chat about their release Sun // Another Day on Mitchum and Tim Feltens SD based record label All Town Sound. Here’s a link to the 45, snag one while you still can. https://alltownsound.bandcamp.com/album/sun-another-day
As well as all the things in the pipeline. Most importantly you have to see this band live. They are hitting stages all around the world, so make sure you tell your friends about Boostive. Go buy their epic merch also. https://www.boostive.world/
These humans are truly some of the most hardworking and talented people in the world. We are so lucky to have them in our backyard.
