Music Archive » World » Island » BABALOO: International
The Boston-based group Babaloo has been performing its unique brand of International dance-party music since 1994. Babaloo originated in Jamaica Plain, a multi-cultural neighborhood in Boston, where the music of local punk rock bands mix with the sounds of salsa and merengue emanating from car stereos, front stoops, and bodega markets. Thus spawned the inspiration for Babaloo. Their music is rooted in Latin and Afro-Caribbean styles, such as mambo, cha cha cha, samba, reggae and ska. Combined with the on-stage energy and presence of a punk band, Babaloo makes music that is truly infectious and without a doubt one of a kind. Babaloo is:

B, aka El Presidente Al Dente '" Lead vocals and percussion
JESSE, aka Slim “Family Man” Goodbody '" Bass Guitar
MIKE, aka Captain Kickass '" Guitars and Vocals
WASH, aka Washtub, aka Shubs '" Drumset, Timbales, and Vocals
NED, aka Nova '" Congas, Percussion, and Vocals
MAX, aka Max Factoria - Trumpet and Percussion
