• Baby Baby’s debut is 'Money' and they don’t even know it [+ Show ]

  It’s taken almost two years, but lead vocalist Fontez Brooks and drummer Grant Wallace have joined forces and will release Baby Baby’s debut LP “Money” on May 21st. With the addition of bassist Kyle Dobbs and percussionist Colin Boddy, the Atlanta-based band is carving a niche with party punk music that’s cut from the same cloth as Bad Brains and Fishbone.
  
  Baby Baby’s jam-band style carries the 12 track album and often surprises you with the unexpected and unconventional. For fans of this style, there is plenty of craziness and fun to be had, but for the casual listener songs may blend together, seeming similar after a few tracks.
  
  But what happens when Baby Baby capture their creative spirits with structure and arraignment? They create the super catchy anthem “Fire,” sparked by a tip toeing bassline and contagious chorus that has Brooks demanding, “Set my heart on fiyah, or let me go!” As the smooth synth line covers the bridge, the repeat button is inevitable.

  The content and tone are genuine and reflective but light hearted. The band takes their craft seriously, but they never take themselves too seriously. Topics revolve around girls, some mild violence, love, reaching stardom, and a few more girls for added measure. Brooks, a self- proclaimed nerd, exudes his passion on “Kidz” when he sings, “Told my Mama, I’m in love with rock and roll.”

So set our heart on fire or let us go. It's a common misconception that guys doing all the leading on. Girls are just as guilty and this song is for you. The lyrics really do the justice, so read along as you listen? On a side note, our singer is single and looking. If you come to a show, he'll serenade this song to you. BB Promise. OR if scary black dudes aren't your thing, come to a show, mention that you read this, and we'll give you some free swag.

  OMG. Best local show in a SUPER long time. When I took Suzi to the Drunken Unicorn that night, I thought the only fantastic band we were going to see was Parachute Musical (who, of course, was great as always), but we were treated to a new absolutely incredible local band called Baby Baby who had us hooked only a couple of songs into their set.
  
  Just in case you can't tell from their MySpace demos (which are still great listens despite what I'm about to say), this band is all about their live energy. The group is composed of two blacks guys (vox/gtr and bass) and two white guys (drums and aux perc), so right off the bat, it's not your typical Atlanta band. Both the percussion guys are super energetic, the drummer easily being the most-exciting/best drummer I've seen in the Atlanta area, and the aux perc guy adding so much to the group that he really makes a case for having an aux perc guy in a band. The bass player is a bit more sedate than the rest of the group, but that's not a bad thing, as he's a solid performer and plays an important role (perhaps as the one non-crazy dude?). =)
  
  But then there's the singer... It's almost impossible to describe what this guy is all about live, but perhaps I'll start with "dancemachine visual overload". Seriously, the guy's already busy enough delivering his unique spastic vocals and playing guitar for the group, but once he starts dancing, it's hard not to fall in love with this band, at least for their energy. This guy is just a fury of kicks, spins, jumps, headbangs, and every other form of spastic movement you can think of that's even somewhat reasonable considering he's holding a guitar. You really just have to see it...
  
  Anyway, their music is absolutely incredible and infectiously-danceable, and although I've heard a mix CD they've been handing out of their demos to date, I'm really excited to hear a fully-realized album whenever they get around to releasing one. This band has HUGE potential, and I hope to be able to play with them one day. Awesomeness

• Interview: Baby Baby talks "Fun Rock" [+ Show ]
  

  Baby Baby is bound to be the new new buzz word around Atlana for folks looking for music that promis...Baby Baby is bound to be the new new buzz word around Atlana for folks looking for music that promises good enertainment and most certainly delivers. Watching Baby Baby live definitely brought back memories of seeing Art Brut, as frontman Fontez Brooks certainly channels the Eddie Argos spirit of storytelling and connecting with the audience. This is what makes Baby Baby standout from other bands with their music, which is, with a couple of exceptions, not exactly the most original thing. Branding their own musical stylings as simply "fun rock" , you can't expect anything particularly technical, groundbreaking, or grandiose about their music, and this is okay, as its not their point. They want to get drunk and wild out, and they want to take you along for the ride. I for one, am most certainly ok with that. Baby Baby is simply a fun band that does manage to pull off the fun manic atmosphere, without it affecting the sound of their music too much. There is one standout song which is certainly their signature called "Fire." This song is actually pretty damn good, as the main riff has a fun creepy tip toeing feel to it which matches perfectly with Fontez's gravelly delivery.
  
  I met up with Baby Baby in Little 5 Points' Java Lords, a few weeks ago to find out a little more about this band. They are a 4 piece fun rock band consisting of 4 very dorky but "forgivable-because-they're-charming" type of guys. As we settled down for the interview, I noticed that two in particular, (Fontez Brooks and Colin Boddy), were what I and friends like to refer to as "ON." Meaning, as if someone had flicked a switch, hit a button, then said "you're ON," every sentence uttered seemed to be a joke or quirky dialogue between members to benefit my entertainment. The other two, Grant Wallace and Kyle Dobbs, were more laid back and reserved, with bemused expressions settled on their faces.
  
  Baby Baby started out a little over a year ago as a two piece consisting of Fontez Brooks and Grant Wallace, two roommates on the campus of the University of West Georgia. Fontez, ever the entertainer, really wanted to start playing music, and had to do some convincing of Wallace, who was formerly in a band(now defunct)and trying to focus on his political studies. After some nudging, Grant said yes. From there, they started jamming, and then played their first show with an acoustic guitar and pots and pans. Of course, seeing that they wanted to be serious about this endeavor at some point, they stole a bassist named Kyle Dobbs. "We found Kyle in the streets...begging for money." (really from another band). Colin was a roommate of Fontez and Grant, and after having to hear their practices for so long, saw that it was a "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" kind of situation.
  
  "We're all really good friends," says Fontez. "We say stupid shit all the time." This was proven shortly after, because as the interview went on, when one would start talking, and get lost in thought, there was another man to finish his sentence; for instance when I asked Fontez to tell me how he developed his particular sound, he replies:
  
  "Um...Okay, so Alright, I didn't think I could sing, and in fact, I know I can't sing..and then..it was like, I knew I could do my own thing, so and you know I don't know...ask the question one more time? Ok check this out,
  "you started with acoustic...ventures Colin.
  Fontez: yeah, i started with acoutsic and um...ok, check this out, let me tell you how i do it..."
  
  At this point Fontez is looking pretty dumbfounded (or caught off guard maybe?) and Kyle helps him out. "Well lets talk about the songs...developing the songs is different, Fontez will come up with a riff and we'll play around it" says Kyle. When it comes to lyrics, it's more on the spot matter of type things, we'll go to the studio and record the songs, and the last thing we do are the lyrics. The lyrics are pretty improvised."
  
  Colin:" Improvisation is a big part of it, every show is different."
  
  Fontez: "When we write songs everything is very chaotic, when we get to the studio everything changes and when we start recording the songs, things get moved so there's no real point in writing the lyrics because you never know how you're gonna feel when you get to the studio."
  
  Like their answers to questions, their songwriting process seems to be fairly democratic. This point was proven when Grant the drummer begins to reminisce on prior restricted drumming experiences, in particular with a terror named Antoine. But, I won't go into those details as I don't really care. I'm sure you can ask them, and they'll be glad to tell you.
  
  With nerves out of the way, Fontez wanted to be sure to get down to the real point of Baby Baby as he adds, "Real quick...the sound is this thing called "fun rock"." We're talking about real stuff, musically everyone's trying to talk about deep stuff, that don't make any sense, and people pretend like they understand what you're saying. Like, we have this song about taking your girl out on a date, and then not returning your phone call, and then I'm like "well can i get my money back?" No offense... but you know, I'm just being real. Now I know some lyrics where I'm like "What are you talking about bro?"
  
  Anyone who wants a Baby Baby album, email them at babybabyga@gmail.com with the subject (I promise to come to a show if you give me your album). Baby Baby also has an upcoming show: Nov. 13th at Swayzes. For now I'll leave you with a very good video done by Terence Rushin fir Baby Baby's single "Fire."

• “Fun Rock” Will Rock Your Socks Off [+ Show ]

  The sound of excitement filled the crowded bar as local band Baby Baby made their entrance through the front door. They filed onto the stage, one after the other, like heroes returning from war with their heads held high and instruments in hand. They knew what they had to do: together they would turn Carrollton into one big dance party.
  
  Fans, friends and family were standing shoulder to shoulder, ready to dance and have a good time. Baby Baby began, playing crowd pleasures including "London Bridges," "The Sandwich Song," and "Twenty Dollars."
  
  However, a few songs into the set, fate took over, the PA system blew, and the vocals went out.
  
  For most bands, this would be a problem. For Baby Baby, this meant that the band would have to accept more than 40 new members. Without skipping a beat, the band continued to play and the crowd took over the vocals.
  
  What a sight to be seen – imagine 40, almost 50 face-painted, enthusiastic fans belting out lyrics, standing and dancing on amps, on chairs and on tables in the crowded bar. A few people grabbed random objects and banged on the drums along with Baby Baby drummer Grant Wallace, others had tambourines and cowbells, playing as loud as they could. And still others clapped their hands over their heads, smiling.
  
  Baby Baby's genre is "fun rock," and it is indeed fun. Band members include Grant Wallace on drums, Fontez Brooks on guitar and lead vocals, and Kyle Dobbs on bass and back-up vocals. This three-piece band began during summer 2009, and their momentum has gathered since their debut performance. They have played numerous shows around the metro Atlanta area and have obtained a faithful fan base. In fact, those who attend one show are often said to have shown signs of being bitten by what the band and fans alike call the "Swagmonsta."
  Baby Baby consists of more than just the three people onstage – they are everyone who comes to the show including the people who bang out drumbeats on the walls and tables, the people who dance onstage during "We Do This All Night Long," and the people who scream out lyrics into the microphones alongside the band.
  
  The band has a new CD out entitled "Long Live the Swagmonsta," accompanied by a music video shot by UWG student Terence Rushin for their song, "The Sandwich and I Thought We Were Friends." Baby Baby included plenty of fan participation of the making of the CD and music video. The CD includes a number of their fans performing for their band, and the duration of the music video shoot involved numerous others.
  
  Baby Baby is, without a doubt, a must-see show for all those who are looking to have a great time. Make sure to bring your dancing pants, though, because once the music starts, you won't be able to stop.
  
  For updates on upcoming shows, a chance to check some of their music or to view their music video, add the group on Facebook or visit Baby Baby's Myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/babybabylovesyou/.

While I’ve heard “Fire” performed live (and well) several times, it’s never had this type of effect on me. I couldn’t have envisioned a better set for this song. Perfect. Good work, Baby Baby (and Terence Rushin).

  Reptar went from being Tommy's favorite dinosaur to making music, Jurassic-size.
  
  Presented by Performer Magazine, three bands will be performing at the Drunken Unicorn Friday, September 17th. Reptar, Baby Baby and Co Co Ri Co will be hitting the stage bringing good times and great music.
  
  Athens, Georgia own Reptar is a dance band that holds keen to their sound - by making people dance! They are the type of band that makes you feel good! "I started to explain that they had just played their first show back in May when I was interrupted by a an explosion of glitter," a live review of Flagpole said about their show back in their hometown. This band is full-fledge dance - they have hints of everything that will get the booty shaking! Afro-beat, Latin, electronic, and just maybe a dash of 80s pop hidden up their sleeves, if Reptar even wears clothes.
  
  Baby, baby, baby, ohhh baby (puns intended)! This band has all the reason to adopt the saying of so many famous musicians because of their unique music making. Taking surf rock to a level that'll make Man Or Astro Man proud, Baby Baby has manifested that sound along with a blues kind of lyricism and a new school type of catchy-ness. Not to mention they're stage presence is awesome times infinity!
  
  Co Co Ri Co makes this line-up complete - and not only because this satisfy the superficial needs of parents and children everywhere who may see this and think "did I miss Rugrats On Ice?" - but because they continue to ensure a fun time for anybody who attends this soirée. Opening for the Drunken Unicorn venue that night, Co Co is the kind of band that can ease the crowd into the hyped-up headliners, but not without some surefire entertainment and great quality music. Although they have an initially chill vibe to their music, this band will definitely get the Georgian music juices flowing!
  
  I'd never thought I would say this, but thank you magazines for being cool enough to put together such a hot line-up! Forget you guys I'm getting tickets now! Doors open at 9pm, and tickets are selling at $6 under and $5 over 21.
  

• Baby Baby: January 2011 Cover Story [+ Show ]

  “We started a coalition against cocky musicians who think they run everything.”
  
  “The word ‘fun’ is actually endangered. People don’t have fun anymore.”
  
  “We are not afraid of self promotion. We’ll sell it on the streets. In the record stores. Show up on your doorstep. Your mother’s gonna get a couple copies.”
  
  What’s little, green, and dancing inside every person on the planet? According to Carrollton, GA’s hottest band of brosephs, Baby Baby, it’s a creature called the Swagmonsta. The Swagmonsta’s singular mission is to shake that ass, and Baby Baby is providing the soundtrack.
  
  At first glance the motley crew of Fontez Brooks (Vocals, Guitar), Kyle Dobbs (Bass), and Grant Wallace (Drums), along with newcomer Colin Boddy (Percussion) do not seem like serious musicians. It might be the fact that they are constantly shirtless, wearing only fluorescent colored short-shorts. Maybe it’s the tribal face paint that they sport at shows. Or it could be that they named their last album something as nonsensical as Wabadabadaba. Whatever the case may be, one thing is for certain, Baby Baby is very serious – about having fun.
  
  “We don’t look serious, but in fact we are serious, we just have a very unusual way of showing it,” drummer Grant Wallace explains. “When we go to shows, we want to have a good time. Most of the time, the majority of the people are not having fun. We are here to help the audience enjoy it and have a better time.” Colin chimes in, “It’s like a pep rally!”
  
  Baby Baby’s inception just over a year ago can be attributed to the bad attitudes and overall humdrum of one too many musical acts. The boys vowed to fill the gaping void in their hometown music scene with their own disjointed blend of pop/indie/rock that eschews pompousness for awesomeness.
  
  Frontman Fontez Brooks states, “We actually started a coalition against cocky musicians who think they run everything. They get onstage and they fart around for 30 minutes. Everyone [in bands] thinks they got something due to them because they are in a band. It’s getting really ridiculous.” The singer continues, “Once we got more serious we started realizing that we could help people have fun. The word ‘fun’ is actually endangered. People don’t have fun anymore.“
  
  Whether it’s Fontez gargling his vocals like an inebriated Louis Armstrong then switching gears, and delving into a soulful, yet eccentric, singing style that brings to mind fellow Georgian Andre 3000, or Grant hammering the skins like he is stirring up a war dance while Kyle’s fleet fingers work his six-string bass with precision (“I’m pretty much perfect,” he jokes), it is obvious that these boys are having a blast.
  
  The band has released a plethora of material in a fairly short time span. Baby Baby’s first recording experience took place in a backwoods cabin, where they tracked the EP Drinking, Drama, Dance on Grant’s computer, an experience he calls, “the worst recording I’ve ever been a part of. We only used two microphones on that album, then we were just so stoked we gave it out to everyone.”
  
  Soon after, they tracked their first proper full length, Long Live The Swagmonsta. Grant explains the title, “There is a little green Swagmonsta in all of us, and he needs to escape. This is what this record’s about: confidence, and knowing that you’re the shit.” Swagmonsta sounds underground and their 6-song follow-up EP, Wabadabadaba is similarly sophomoric, but something special sparkles in these songs that get stuck in the head like a crayon in Homer Simpson’s brain, requiring multiple spins to satisfy that Baby Baby craving.
  
  The Swagmonsta has also gone viral. Videos of the group are getting hits aplenty on the social media front. Though more DIY than MTV, the vids highlight Baby Baby’s creative side, which balances absurdity with hilarity. The video for the song “Fire” takes place at a pool party, juxtaposing the two essential elements, fire and water, creating a subtle irony that proves Baby Baby isn’t swimming in the shallow end. The clip for “The Sandwich and I Thought We Were Friends” utilizes a film projector in a humorous yet ingenious manner, and the live footage compiled on YouTube is well worth watching, if just to catch the band’s onstage vibe, especially the version of “London Bridges” which features a jumping crowd singing along to Fontez’s refrain, “I think that I’m her baby, but she’s callin’ me a friend.”
  
  Fontez breaks down his lyrical approach, “I write lyrics from the heart. A lot of lyricists these days in the rock ‘n’ roll scene try to be so deep and moving that it doesn’t make any sense. And no one has the cojones to say, ‘Sir, you don’t make any sense.’ I have the cojones to say that.”
  
  As seen in the videos, the secret of Baby Baby’s success is their live show, where they take the fun quotient and crank it up way past 11. “Every song is totally different live,” Grant says. “We like making them longer ’cause it’s way more fun.” Fontez agrees, “Us live, is us hanging out. It’s like a party. We’re trying to have a good time. We wear little shorts and face paint, because when you go to a live show these days, the ‘fans’ treat each other like garbage. Everyone’s all douchebaggy, and they got funny shoes and flipped back hair. Well, we get on stage and we are lamer than the fans, so then the fans can have a good time. We want [the shows] to be as epic as possible by [the band] being so incredibly lame.”
  
  “Lame” is certainly not what comes to mind when audience members are feverishly dancing while others are grabbing instruments, and microphones, to join in on their favorite numbers. Crowd participation is eagerly encouraged at a Baby Baby show. In fact, at one gig last winter, the PA system blew out, rendering the microphones useless. A normal band would have folded, but the Swagmonstas could not be contained and the raucous crowd took over on vocal duties, sending 40 plus people, including one in a full body shark costume, onto the stage to collaboratively sing for the still playing band. “It was the wildest show ever,” Fontez beams.
  
  The band’s wild style extends from the stage to their merch booth, where they push homemade swag, most notably spray painted t-shirts. Instead of traditionally paying for printed merch, Baby Baby has joined the dumpster-diving team. They find and launder jettisoned clothing, then hook ’em up with a custom spray-painted Baby Baby logo, making each item as unique as the gig. It is thrifty and original way to give fans a souvenir of their journey down Swaggasaurus Lane.
  
  Baby Baby are currently recording songs at various studios that will coalesce into their new full length, Money, a title that has more in common with Swingers slang than greenbacks. Performer’s sneak peek at the new cut “Kidz” revealed a professionally produced sound accentuating Baby Baby’s signature strut. The album will see the light on the Atlanta-based label Gospel of Rhythm Recordings this May, but even with label help Fontez promises that Baby Baby won’t lose their DIY ethic. “We are not afraid of self promotion. We will sell it on the streets. In the record stores. Give it away for free behind the record stores. Do whatever it takes. Show up on your doorstep. Your mother’s gonna get a couple copies. Basically our plan is to take over the world.”
  
  At their current rate of expansion, Baby Baby should reach critical mass by the time this article goes to press, but the guys aren’t letting it go to their heads: “We’re all friends and we enjoy doing this,” bassist Kyle Dobbs asserts, but Kyle’s statement does not fully envelope the sense of global domination Fontez envisions, “People say ‘divide and conquer.’ No no no. Bring together – and then conquer everybody. We pretend that we are having a party, but actually, we are conquering.” With leaders like these, the world’s population will gleefully surrender to Baby Baby.

But their debut album, Money, goes a long way in redirecting attention toward their music, which holds up assuredly well. Perhaps surprisingly so, considering their goofbone live appeal. A shake 'n' bake of '90s alterna-rock, funk, metal riffage, psychedelia and googly-eyed showmanship, on paper it totally looks like a recipe for utter shit, but it kicks ass and busts a nut that's been untapped in these parts for a long time, which makes it seem all the fresher. I was all ready to hate 'em, but the truth is, they're kinda awesome, and they have the goods for wider appeal if they keep their heads on straight. And yeah, they're pretty funny. You gotta love, even begrudgingly, any band that titles a song "Instead of Spending My $20 on the Blink 182 Reunion Show I Took You Out on a Date and You Never Returned My Phone Call So Don't Ever Expect to Eat Free Shrimp Scampi Again Bitch," and the song is actually good too. Release show is this Saturday, May 21st at the Drunken Unicorn.

  A cluster-fuck of joyful noise with a wide variety of influences and stylings, this album is a wild ride spawned from the recklessly creative minds of four fun-loving dudes from Carrolton, GA. You can hear the sunshine in the music, with punky beats & riffs echoing sounds from the era of Sublime, dashes of harder punk like Fugazi, and definite influences of hard liquor mixin’ with testosterone. Throw this album in at your next party, dump the Everclear in the Jungle Juice and get crazy already! It’s evident that the only thing to be done with this album is to pop it in, get fucked up, get loud, and jump around. Sounds like a good time, right? Best get the album
