Big B is responsible for the pre-summer song sensation “Sinner,” and he’s taken radio waves by storm ever since.  His new CD Good Times & Bad Advice is chalk-full of kick-ass collaborations, namely Scott Russo and Everlast among others- and the vibe is just right for a little background barbeque music of sorts.

Ready to take the stage at Sunset Strip Music Festival we got to know a little more about what’s behind the music:

BNB:  Hey I’m standing here with Big B, I’m Lauren from bestnewbands.com- you getting stoked for your performance today?

BB:  Yeah absolutely!

BNB:  What would you say your main musical influences are?

BB:  Oh man- anything really.  I just like old school punk rock and country, hip hop- so Johnny Cash, Social Distortion.

 

BNB:  You’ve toured with several different artists- what’s been your favorite so far?

BB:  You know, I love going to Australia!  So, probably my Australian tours.

 

BNB:  Has being on heavy rotation on the radio changed things at all?

BB:  Well not me per say, but it’s changed the situation.

BNB:  I can imagine- for the better!

BB:  Yeah, absolutely!

 

BNB:  Who’s been your favorite artist to collaborate with thus far?

BB:  Everlast right now- and Scott Russo also- but Everlast was just such a big influence, so it’s good to work with him.

BNB:  Great and he’s actually on a few of your tracks!

BB:  Yeah, definitely!

 

BNB:  Who are you amped to see today?

BB:  I can’t wait to check out Common, Kid Rock’s supposed to play with Slash and every time he plays he’s really good- so that.

 

BNB:  Any up and coming artists you’re keeping an eye on?

BB:  You know- I don’t really know.

 

BNB:  Your CD Good Times & Bad Advice is about to drop- you ready to hop back in the recording studio yet or you planning on taking 5?

BB:  Yeah I’m recording now- I’m always recording, trying to put something together- everyday I’m either writing something or recording something so I’ll be back.  That’s how I do it- I write them all year long.

 

BNB:  And you write all of your own lyrics?

BB:  Oh yeah all of them.  It’s a good deal for me just to keep busy.

 

BNB:  Great well we can’t wait to check you out!  Closing Remarks?

BB:  You know- there’s no real remarks, just come check us out- feedbigb.com- I’m here today and that’s about it!

 

The “Sinner” song-sation has dominated stages and airwaves- but I suggest checking out “Before I Leave This Place” featuring Everlast (www.myspace.com/hooliganbigb) a track I’ve currently substituted “Sinner” for as of now!

 

He may have just blown up fairly recently, but Big B is not hear today gone tomorrow status- with Everlasting talent and a thirst for pushing the envelope with new collaborations- he’s definitely going to be around for a while!  You can follow more of Big B’s beats at www.feedbigb.com!  Catch him on tour now- next stop, Tulsa on August 31!
