Yo all the family out there!! How is it going in your perspective worlds? Well I am getting ready to embark on a great journey to NYC and then to Senegal! For those of you who didn’t know I am married to a great senegalese woman. So I will be making some music videos over [...]

It seems more and more candidates are choosing to take their campaigns to the street via Xtracycle. Ok, so, there are two that I know of, but that seems like a lot. Last fall, Craig Kelley ran for city council in Cambridge, MA, using his long bike as the primary campaign vehicle. He used it [...]

The Xtracycle makes three brief appearances in Spearhead’s new video, “Everyone Deserves Music.” Two of the three are in under-the-scene supporting roles. All are brief, but the vid’s cool. It’s not really coincidence, since the lead singer, Michael Franti, is on Team FreeRadical.

The band will be getting the hell out of L.A., fleeing towards home this Friday. But first we’ll stop in San Francisco for the Green Festival, rendesvousing with Ross, Laughter, and possibly even the Fossil Fool AND the Granola Ayatola, at Xtracycle’s booth.

Our show starts tomorrow on MTV. It’s called “The Reality Show.” If you’ve heard us play or talk from stage, you might think we don’t like t.v. or big corporations. Well that used to be true but now that it’s about us, we changed our mind!
Just kidding. It’s more complicated than that. The truth is [...]

Cops, park rangers, protesters, cameras, peer pressure, and our collective conscience could not stop the festival love.

This shot should be called Fake Shrimp.
Although you see Fossil Fool, Thao, Fiddle Fantastic, IJ and KC going for it on the river side, not all is as it seems. Many in the community protested our having the party [...]

Our first public show in a long time, and we’ve got a great cast of characters assembled. Borrina Mapaka is in town, helping produce our new album, and he’ll be rocking the crowd with his far out vocals, wild moves and beautiful presence. And we’re stoked to have Bodhi Busick on the stage, too, [...]
