BIO

The Boom Booms debut album "Hot Rum" was conceived on a 6 month "on-the-fly" tour of Latin America in 2008. Their sunny blend of folk, rock, reggae, african, and latin music quickly connected with people on the west coast and soon they were selling out venues and playing festivals across their home province such as Squamish Live and Pemberton. Fan favourite "you know" blends rock and reggae and became a staple at the end of their sets, while reggae-influenced "Caroline"s longing lyrics and brilliant melodies tugs on heart strings in english AND spanish. They had a song on the Much More Music countdown, won an award for "Best Roots Song", as well as the Georgia Straight newspapers peoples choice award for "best unsigned band" 7 times. On their next record they worked with Grammy-winning producer Chin Injeti on a tight soul-pop record called "Love is Overdue" and later they co-produced a record with Sam Woywitka called "Million Miles". in 2025 the lifelong friends and staple of BC music scene return with a new album that harkens back to the orginal beachy-rootsiness of Hot Rum.
