Busdriver, Random A.K.A. Mega Ran, Mouse Powell and DJ Bandcoach

Score: 0

A very cool show to make your hump day a little easier to deal with folks! Busdriver has released several albums over the years but his seventh and latest release Beaus$Eros really has people talking. The album may be his most diverse and personal work yet, delivering a highly technical style of post hip hop and pop. This veteran of the modern indie rap scene for over a decade has performed in the Valley multiple times in the past, so it shall be highly interesting to see what kind of show this artist will deliver on this evening.

Raheem Jarbo, better known in the music industry as Random A.K.A. Mega Ran used to be a middle school teacher. What a turn-a-round from that career when he released his debut album The Call in 2006. However, it was Random's second release Mega Ran in 2007 that put this artist on the map, an album which sampled 8-bit beats from the hit video game series “Mega Man.” He continues today as a widely respected hip hop artist.

Tempe's Mouse Powell and Phoenix's DJ Bandcoach open this all ages show.
