About Me

We grew up in the desert. You got down with what you had. If there was a empty pool, we skated it. If we needed a track for our BMXin'...we went out in the desert and made one. If someone had a punk rock record, we all dubbed it and played the tape out. If Yawning Man was playing at the Nude Bowl, you found someone with a car and you got your ass to the party. A lot of rad music and bands came from this trip. I know, I was born from it. Us desert kids got into whatever was out there with us. We used the scraps. Low Desert punks were different. We were outside the outside. This was my root and I've gone and done things that I would of never dreamed of. This November I returned to So-Cal after spending a year in Barcelona Spain. It was an experience I'll never forget. I learned so much about other cultures and I learned so much about my own. It's strange...the more I go out into the world ...the closer I get to my root. My long time bro and vibe partner, Cale Bunker and myself, decided to celebrate this feeling by creating a new trip that is a direct celebration of the root. It's about everything we do creatively. Music and art. And our goal is to get it to those freaks who are down with the sound and style. We call it Low Desert Punk cuz thats what it is.Check it out.- Brant Bjork
