RS2 Solid Sound ‘UFLIPTODON ME’ from PK on Vimeo.
This San Jose-based band started as a solo project for skateboarder/lifer, Ray Stevens II, whose music has been influenced by Roots, Rock, Reggae, Jazz, heavy blues, metal and punk. In the RS2 Solid Sound current line up, Ray is the songwriter and plays guitar and sings, with Josh Hanoka on bass and Daniel Williams on drums. Along the way, band members have come and gone, yet all have been excellent friends and musicians. Thanks to past members: Mike Crabtree, Brian Vega, John Old, Ray Yeh, Randy Fard, Waychill Saffire, KLI and special guests, Tommy Guerrero, Dirtbag Dan, DJ Ishy, Ras Pablo Atzlan, C4 and Pete The Ox. RS2 Solid Sound have played Goofy versus Regular skateboard award show, Tim Brauch Memorial contest after party, and done lots of the music for the movie “SUPERCHARGED: The Life and Times of Tim Brauch”.
