Who has the pulse on the heartbeat of the Bay Area's music scene? Bobby Martinez, founder of Dandy Boy Records, joins me for a journey through music, memories, and the vibrant culture that shapes underground music. He shares his music-rooted life story, reminiscing about his early days and experiences that ignited his love for punk rock. He takes us on a tour through the legendary Gilman Street in Berkeley, a special venue that remains a beacon for underground music enthusiasts. We explore his passion for writing about music and the evolution of his record label, Dandy Boy Records, which supports artists often seen as 'awkward kids' in the music realm. We uncover the stories behind a gentleman who gives us panoramic insights about the bones of East Bay music culture. Go forth with the podcast adventure.
