PIMPBOT blares infectious tunes out of Honolulu’s nightlife capital… Waikiki. PIMPBOT balances their audiences between Hawaii’s tourist industry, and it’s thriving underground music scene. In a world of cover bands, they have always stayed true to their original material, carrying humorous stories from everyday life – from having a breakfast after a one night stand to driving with an empty gas t…ank. The members of PIMPBOT are alumni of the University of Hawaii and Berklee College of Music. Homegrown but well traveled, the band blends their acquired influences of reggae, dance rock, hardcore and rocksteady into their signature brand of ska/punk. Their sound has been quoted by the Honolulu Star-Bulletin as “a tribute to the flexibility and open minds of the members.” PIMPBOT has shared the stage with many celebrated groups such as Train, Third Eye Blind, Candlebox, The Ataris, Less Than Jake, Reel Big Fish, The Toasters, General Public featuring Dave Wakeling, The Aquabats, Save Ferris, Buck-O-Nine, The Pietasters, Go Jimmy Go, The Aggrolites, The Skeletones, the One Man Ska Band-Chris Murray, Los Furios (Canada), and Oi-Skallmates (Japan), to name a few.
