Get ready to get up to get down with the 5 piece Willoughby boys as their tight brand of rock-acoustic, funk & soul takes center stage in your town- check their site for tour info!
Along their travels the Skinny have landed performances with Dave Matthews Band, Blessid Union Of Souls, The Roots, O.A.R, George Clinton and the PFunk Allstars, Ari Hest, Average White Band, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Rusted Root, Robert Randolph, Matt Nathanson, the Spin Doctors, and Galactic.

from Spin.com: THE COOL KIDS
What's the Deal?
The Cool Kids' slow, deliberate vocal flow coupled with simple rhythms harkens back to the glory days of acts like Boogie Down Productions and EPMD. And the duo's much-anticipated sophomore EP, The Bake Sale, which is their first commercially available disc, flaunts the Windy City natives' vintage influences with ten tracks both new and old. "88" smolders like a N.E.R.D reinterpretation of Run DMC's "Peter Piper," chock full of throwback hip-hop style and a smooth recital of a hook from "The Safety Dance." And "Black Mags" just may go down as the smoothest ode to BMX bikes ever recorded over a beat easily duplicated on an Amiga.
Who?
The Cool Kids are a different kind of internet coupling. Chuck Inglish met Mikey Rocks three years ago through MySpace -- an online community where the duo eventually culled many of their fans. The two did production work together, envisioning a set of beats for other artists to lay tracks over. Rocks himself rapped during a session and wound up as the temporary 'voice' of the Cool Kids, though the two now share both vocal and production duties. The Cool Kids' debut full-length, When Fish Rides Bicycles, will drop this fall.
Fun Fact: "If I wasn't rapping, I would be a zoologist specializing in reptile and mammal studies. I know everything about animals," Mikey Rocks tells SPIN.com. "The cool kids aren't all that cool, haha."

The Talent: Lipbone Redding
The Cut: Closing Time
DYK (Did You Know): That is not a trombone or trumpet you are hearing. It's the "Lipbone". Lipbone refers to himself as a "voicestrumentalist". Yeah--that is coming out Mr Lipbone Redding's mouth!
Though his songs stand alone, his entire show is greased with uncanny riffs of vocal trumpeting (AKA THE LIP-BONE*), booming mouth percussion, hilarious side moments and esoteric lyrics. The Lipbone Orchestra is in the studio in May '08 recording their new album.
Check out Lipbone Live in Columbus at a BSM Music co-sponsored event at Whole Foods in Dublin, July 10th.
Come on out, give him some love and buy some tasty groceries.
Check him out at myspace.com/lipboneredding
or www.lipbone.com
About me: The Concert Series for a Cure is on! BSM Music good friend and NYC recording artist Lipbone Redding will be playing at the Lazy Chameleon in Powell.

Who I'd like to meet:
In the business, everyone says "Have your people call our people." We want to be 'Your People'- Think BIGGER.
On May 1st, 2008 Buckeye Sports Management (Columbus OH), launched a music division. Our background has been in event planning, and sports marketing in Columbus OH, but our true passion is music. The founder of the company also play (guitar) and we want to help promote the local music scene in C-bus.
I just launched a social networking site for Ohio Based musicians, and will be doing promotion for several local bands. My goal is to help get the word out about your band through networking. Free. I will also be taking on a select handful of clients and will assist in the following areas, given my background in Sports Marketing:
Booking
Event Planning
Web, Logo Design
Press Release
Promotion
Street Team
Album Release Party
Generous iTunes Revenue Sharing Program
Lighting/Sound/Staging Rental
Recording studio
Video Production/post production editing capabilities
Internet Radio station for your band
I am also forming relationships with several smaller record labels, and can handle the rigors of negotiation when you are ready to push for a deal.
BSMNation is not big...yet. And we don't ever intend to be huge. We want to keep it real, keep it local, and want to do this for the right reasons. Kind of like the Jerry Maguire of the Ohio Music scene if that makes sense.
If you want to get some free love and social networking for your band, add us a friend on our MySpace page. Again, just launching this division and we have much to do. so, if you come -- We will build it!
BSM Music Radio coming soon. We are launching BSM Music Radio later this month. BSM Music Radio is an internet-based streaming solution which will feature all of our people, and other tunes we love.
We are also an authorized distributor for Stream 101, and if your band would be interested in getting your own streamed radio station on your site, get in touch for more details.
