On August 5, 2025, the iconic band Fishbone brought their signature blend of funk, ska, and punk to the KEXP studio, delivering an unforgettable live rendition of their classic track, “Party At Ground Zero.” The performance was a testament to the band’s enduring energy and musical prowess.

Frontman Angelo Moore captivated the audience with his dynamic vocals, saxophone, and theremin, leading a powerhouse lineup. He was joined by the masterful Christopher Dowd on trombone, the innovative Tracey “Spacey T” Singleton on guitar, the rhythmic backbone provided by bassist James “Jimi” Jones and drummer Hassan Hurd, and the vibrant brass of trumpeter John “JS” Williams II. Together, they unleashed a torrent of pure, unadulterated musical excitement that vibrated through the studio.

The live session, expertly hosted by Larry Mizell, Jr., was meticulously engineered by Kevin Suggs and flawlessly mastered by Julian Martlew. A dedicated team of cinematographers—Jim Beckmann, Carlos Cruz, Leah Franks, Scott Holpainen, and Luke Knecht—captured every electrifying moment, with Jim Beckmann also taking on editing duties. This collective effort ensured a high-quality visual and auditory experience.
