Dynamite Boy

Dynamite Boy was formed in Austin,Texas in the summer of 1995. Their unique style of pop-punk and explosive live perfomances quickly attracted a solid local following. Within a year, Dynamite Boy released their first split 7" with ska-punk superheros The Impossibles and toured throughout the southwest. They were soon opening for bands like Avail, The Vandals, Pansy Division, Diesel Boy, Less Than Jake, and AFI, just to name a few.

In the winter of 1996, they went into the studio with local punk rock legend Chris Gates (ex Big Boys/Junkyard) to record their first full-length cd "Hell Is Other People" for OffTime Records. They have also contributed songs to countless compilation cd's, including Fearless Records' "Punk Bites 2", Drive-Thru Records' "Where's The Beef?", and Cargo Records' "Strange Cargo".

Dynamite Boy continued touring over the next two years, making lots of friends and fans in the process. They also caught the attention of several indie labels and in early 1999, they signed with Fearless Records. By June '99, Dynamite Boy was at Paramount Recording Studios in Hollywood,CA recording their long-awaited 2nd cd with producer Jim Goodwin (Face To Face, Guttermouth, Voodoo Glow Skulls). The cd, entitled "Finders Keepers" hit the streets. They're latest release, "Somewhere in America", is also available from Fearless.
