| PLANET B BIO: The music is as innovative as it gets and the live show is a vividly impressive stage performance that is pure energy with the power and spectacle of an amazing rock and theatrical production. From heavy guitar riffs to epic synths to mind pounding beats to melodic vocals to hard hitting raps, Planet B takes you on an adrenalin pumping ride through the past, present and future with an incredible fusion of musical styles that keeps you at the edge of your seat. Their sound can only be described as epic! PB's music crosses many musical genres and styles from rock to electronica to Hip Hop, sounding like many of their inspirations, yet still maintaining a sound that is unlike any other. The World just might be ready for a sound like Planet B and if they have it their way, they want their music to hit every corner of the globe. With their blend of sound, strong work ethic & massive internet assault they just might! Planet B is song writer, lead singer, Sason Bishope Parry & producer, rapper, Shaun Bivens, both raised in the SF Bay Area and friends since their teens. They both grew up listening to different styles of music from Rock to Hip Hop to Electronica and came together in 1999 when Planet B was immediately formed bringing together both of their unique styles and life experiences. The “B” comes from balance and defines the fusion of hard and soft melodies & lyrics. Every song is a lyrical journey and new experience in the lives of Planet B. “We grew up listening to so many different styles of music that we wanted to have that show through in our music our live performance. We also wanted to show both points of view as every situation in life has 2 perspectives. We don’t sugarcoat the realities, because the World is not always a happy place. Being Persian (from Tehran) and growing up in Berkeley, I have had the opportunity to see and experience many cultures and dream about a day when all cultures will be treated as equals. Lyrics are just as important as the music and probably more important- because that’s where you understand the message. Planet B has very profound messages and there are many meanings if you listen close,” says Sason. Both members are exact alter egos and feed upon each others creativity and vibes like ying and yang. Sason, has a very organic, yet dark and angelic vibe that shows through in his layered melodic vocals and Shaun is the exact opposite, coming across more hard with his screaming vocal delivery & raps. “We didn’t want to be pigeon holed into any one particular music genre, because we like so many different styles of music, that we wanted to be able to take each song in a different direction, yet still have it be Planet B’s own sound.” Says, Shaun. Planet B’s songs are extremely visual and most could be soundtracks to movies. They have just finished up the final touches to their new album, entitled “Twist Your Fate”, which they are shooting to put out sometime in '07. PB has also recently produced, performed and shot their new video, The End Of The World" and a clip will be online soon. PB plans to shoot 2 more videos in early 2007- 1 will be for song, " Twist Your Fate" and the other will be a live video shot in Miami at the Ultra Music Festival in March.
