How does it feel to perform in front of a festival size audience?
Moises:
From the first moment I step off stage, I feel so honored that I still get to do it and I still get butterflies. I still want to do good. I love performing. I love singing. I love conveying energy and transferring energy and soaking it up. I feel so blessed to be a part of the scene.

How did the band get started?
Moises:
We started playing and collaborating with STD’s “Surf Till Death”, Guttermouth, Pennywise, Rebelution, Expendables, Iration, B Foundation, Chapter 11, Dirty Heads and many more. We got to one of our first major tours with Pennywise. We got started playing at the Break Wall in Redondo Beach. The band members were originally Matt, I Johnny, Al . . Johnny and Matt are cousins. Al was there Uncle. Shawn Chapman lived across the street to my mom’s house. I met Shawn Chapman in my twenties and that is when he got involved with the band. The band started playing in two thousand or two thousand and one. When Shawn Chapman got involved it was a nice nice ride. His dad gor involved and sponsored us and helped us to solidify a little spot. We then decided to start a new project called “Life”. We are pushing forward now and just having a lot of fun with it. The reggae rock scene has grown so much now. Now, there is so many good bands, and so many good artists are out there. I felt stoked just to be a part of it. I’m just trying to maintain what I call longevity and relevance.
Reggae Rock News:
You have new music? What has kept you inspired?
Moises:
I feel as an artist you have to keep up with the change. I feel like this is the way you got to go and like, you got to stay relevant and you got to be conscience of the people’s ears. If you don’t you will fall short. We love to do extra music, little live acoustic sets, that kind of stuff. We perform cover songs and or snippets, which helps to keep the vibe moving forward. That’s what everybody needs these days.
