They have 3 great CDs and a large following of fans. Umbrella Bed began in 1995 in a small stinky basement in Minneapolis. In fewer than 6 months, they went from having their first tiny gig to playing with the Skatalites in front of 1,500 people. They have not slowed down since. Now a nine-piece band, Umbrella Bed has a sound that is bigger and better than ever before. With a constant schedule of shows they have built a large fan base and a reputation for having one of the best live shows in the USA. Their music is a blend of 2-tone ska with full helpings of old school and third wave for a powerful sound all their own. Ska, 2-Tone, rocksteady, reggae, punk rock... call it whatever you want to. THE BABOONZ just call it ska and punk rock, and that’s just fine. It’s sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes loud, sometimes low, but always highly explosive and politically correct. The band from Bavaria, Germany, is one of the country’s fastest-rising and most promising groups, and is an important part of the new flourishing ska scene in Bavaria. Though founded in 1998, things got serious in 2001 when they completed the following line-up: Simon, guitar; Daniel, guitar; ToBe, bass; Mandal, drums; Waste, vocals; Stephan, saxophone; Tobi, trombone; and Flo, trumpet. Recently, the ensemble was joined by Klaus on organ. THE BABOONZ have played more than 150 shows in Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Italy, and Switzerland. They shared stages with top acts such as Stingers ATX, Bad Manners, The Busters, Mark Foggo, Hotknives, The Peacocks, Scrapy, Skarface, Loaded, Bluekilla, The Skaliners, Moskovskaya, The Benuts, Tornados, Rollings, The Real McKenzies, Cashless, and many more. At their shows they rock ‘til you drop, and you can see how much fun they have being on stage. Their lyrics show that they view politics as an important part of daily life, taking a stand against fascism, racism, militarism and intolerance. But they’re not just complainers- they know how to throw a cool party as well.
