INDIE BAND OF THE WEEK: BONZ

Stuck Mojo trail blazed the rap-rock genre by melding their heavy metal-bred Southern heritage with a frontman (Bonz) who bled hip-hop. Formed in 1989 by guitarist Rich Ward, Stuck Mojo set out to experiment with this genre-blending musical hybrid, inspired by bands such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Faith No More, Run DMC and Black Sabbath. When Stuck Mojo's first release, "Snappin' Necks," appeared in the mid-90's via Century Media, they were something of a phenomenon to some and a question mark to others. Daring to be different in a non-socially acceptable way, they challenged the system musically and broke down barriers.

INDIE BAND OF THE WEEK: SPENCE

Spence first got on our radar a little over a year ago when we realized they were personally out and about pounding the pavement and getting people excited about their music and brand. The band members were actively seeking out people in the biz and inviting them to listen and to come to a show. Now, that doesn't make them extraordinary. No. Many bands do that. What Spence had was charisma and charm…and persistence. They were good at making sure that people that were remotely close to their venues were aware of their tour and personally invited them to come out. They reminded us over and over again where they were, and made sure that we were there to hang with them and have a drink. Dedication and persistence.
