H.B.E in paradise




St. Lucia is paradise! We were there to play the St. Lucia Jazz Festival. We were treated like kings, or something like it. The food, the landscape, the women, the climate... this is a place of natural beauty. We almost didn't come back to the U.S., it felt like home. We'll be back there next year!

Another star on the list


There is a long list of celebrities that have our album. Dave Chappelle is the most recent. After doing Joes Pub, you know how Hypnotic gets down. We were right back in the streets the next day. Outside of being the walking dead from no sleep the night before, the park security was giving us a hard time. Dave and his family just happened to be at the Lotus festival at union square. He walked up and talked the green shirts into getting off our backs. So we played a song for him. Gathered a crazy crowd. Popped cd's and posed for pics. He's a cool cat. We'll see what comes from it.

The next level





After playing London, we prepared ourselves for a crazy night at Joes Pub in New York. People were scalping our tickets for $150. True fans! We turned away another 200 people at the door. We did tell everyone to get their tickets online. Those that did, got a special treat. Those that didn't, either paid a ton of money or missed out on Hypnotic taking it to the next level.
