Since forming in 2008, Bad Chad and The Good Girls, a crunk pop trio based in southern Louisiana, have merged 808 bass, playful lyrics, and electronic production into an inventive frenzy of dance tracks! Their uncompromising and intense delivery contains innovative elements and fuses different genres. The trio create an atmosphere reminiscent of an avant garde art project blended with punk rock energy and southern swang. Their piercing vocals, loud colors, raw bass, and ninja like dance moves encourage the crowd to chant the memorable hooks and engage the experience.

NEW ALBUM "COCONUT ROCK" OUT ON ESL RECORDS.
Adrian Quesada and Martin Perna, respective band-leaders of famed ensembles Grupo Fantasma and Antibalas, once again unite under the Ocote Soul Sounds banner for their new full length album, Coconut Rock, released on ESL Music. After two stellar albums, this time around Coconut Rock finds the duo loosened up, slipping effortlessly into their trademark psychedelic afro-latin funk groove. From the Latin breakbeat rhythms of album lead-off “The Revolt of the Cockroach People” to the cumbia bounce of “Tu Fin, Mi Comienzo” to the easy guitar soundscapes of “Vendendo Saude e Fe” featuring Brazilian songstress Tita Lima, Coconut Rock is the third chapter in Ocote Soul Sound’s unparalleled journey through sonic realms beyond!
