Oakland, California's Ten*G*Bob offers infectious party music, a mix of ska and rap and punk and rock that crosses traditional industry lines. Their music is about a little bit of everything, appealing to music fans of all ages and backgrounds.

Their journey began as the "Missing Link," quickly establishing themselves as one of the hottest and most exciting acts in the San Francisco Bay Area. They quickly sold through 2500 copies of their debut album "Entourage Garage," while making a name for themselves at clubs and parties throughout the area.

Looking to find a broader audience for their music, the band eventually moved to Downtown Los Angeles, finding new fans, refining their sound, and setting the course for what was to come...

In 2001 they crafted their hip-hop crossover demo, "ClownCore," which fell into the hands of producer Mike Trujillo. Trujillo had prior A&R experience with a variety of artists, from Tom Waits to Rancid, while also producing albums for various bands on Epitaph Records (Osker, Choking Victim, etc.). Trujillo was immediately impressed by Ten*G*Bob's original sound, and quickly got them in the studio to record the band. Read more on Last.fm.
