Artist History Their First CD, titled Broken, was independently recorded and released with the help of Will and Eve Craig of Chill Productions. The album features a wide range of styles ranging from funk, punk, to jazz. Saying things they shouldn’t and playing what others wouldn’t, the band breaks about every rule to song writing written. The next two years was spent playing over 50 shows and writting and recording their second cd, titled Hands On Experience, which is due out late 2003.

Group Members Scott Hauk is the singer, bass player, keyboardist, and beer drinker for the band. Scott has played, for over 14 years, with numerous local musicians and drank for nearly seven years. Influences include Primus, Sublime, Bloodhound Gang, and Cake. In his spare time Scott likes to pickle his liver, spank the monkey and take moonlight walks around the block with his dog G funk. Guitar player Jesse Bishop was won in a bad bet in a poker game between Jesse’s dad and Scott. Scott won. Or did he? His influences include Alice in Chains, Metallica, Megadeth, and Nirvana. His powerful, heavy riffs and melodic leads provide an interesting twist for the music. Dave Schad is the powerhouse behind the drums. Playing for over two decades in Phoenix, Dave has obtained respect and incredible skills to go along with it. His disciplined, solid grooves set the foundation for the band, and leave the drummers who played before him feeling slightly inadequate. Dave’s only influence is Satan. In Daves spare time he likes to rub his bald head, mumble nonsense to himself, and dress up in womens underwear. Ricardo Aguilar is the saxophone and conga player, and has been playing professionally for over 37 years. He has studied everything from Latin to punk to blues, and is now studying Celtic music and stand up comedy.

Press Reviews Overall Booby Trap is a band that takes their music very seriously, while not taking themselves seriously at all. Their music is wicked fun to listen to, and their live shows are a solid kick of adrenaline. Jenifer GirlPosse.com
