Hey guys, we're stoked to announce that we are working on new songs and have plans to be back in the studio this winter. We are currently writing for this process and will keep you all posted as it's been many moons since we've recorded. We anticipate a strictly digital release of the new songs . . . . thanks for all the west coast lovin and we'll keep you in de loop. Oh, and i just bought a new board - sick, it's a 5'11" stretch tuflite. Sick, sick, sick, yellow with an Obama sticker on the nose. Maybe if Matt would stop kookin all the good waves in LA county all my boards wouldn't be dinged up and I wouldn't have had to buy this one. Bret and I are BFF's and Sean is actually my younger sister. Lilly and Ana are still the only ones worth coming to the shows to see. See ya in da clubs.

First off Happy New Year! We wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year with all the joy and love you desire. And when the prosperous part happens, we'll take a blank check!

Secondly our first show of the New Year is quickly approaching Friday February 6th at the Mint in Los Angeles opening for the Boogaloo Assassins. If you haven't heard these guys you are in for a treat! The line up for the night is sick so come early; have some dinner, dance a little, and see what happens next. Who knows? You could meet the next Mr. or Mrs. Wrong or Right for the night!!

Plenty of amazing stuff is in the works this year for the band. Jesse is going to learn to surf, Bret's going to learn to dance, and Sean is going to learn to talk! Anna, Lily, and I are perfect...


We look forward to seeing ya'll in the new year!

Love from the tips of our toes!

wow, wow, wowie wow wow. just wanted to say how stoked we are that barack has taken this historic election in such a landslide. people truly are ready for some change. that is very nice to see. i was beginning to wonder. we would love to hear your thoughts on this election and what's to come in the next four years! hopes, fears, worries, excitement . . . whatever. i was on the phone with my mother who marched with Dr. King many moons ago and she was practically in tears about this outcome and how far we have come as a country. there's so much to say on it and we'd love to hear your take . . . . holla!

yo, some vids were forwarded to us from our show in LA at the temple bar. check it, check it . . .

Matt has gotten into a bad habit of dropping in on me when we surf. I cut him off and ran him into some rocks yesterday in Malibu. That's how I role even with my bandmates. If you read this Matt, the next time I fire my board into your kidney. Hope to see you guys in Venice. More club shows are in the works for LA and Long Beach as well.
~holla, Jesse

So, it was nice. You guys bought us dinner and flowers and we made love. It was our first time. It won't be our last. Kinda weird we had to charge you for it. Does that make us prostitutes? Damn, we need pimptual representation then. We think we want to take Mandorico and SoCal's relationship to the next level. So we will be buying some lingerie and we'll see you guys in Venice in a few weeks. Thank you all SO MUCH for your support and we can't wait for the next date. We usually don't kiss and tell but you guys were sactacular! Stay naked people and thank you again for breaking Mandorico in gently to the West Coast ;-)

P.S. whatcha thinkin bout?

Sup er'body! We are stoked to have some dates on the books and hope that all of you will come out and support the cause as Mandorico returns to the stage after almost 2 F@KING years! Spread the good word to your people in the appropriate hoods and we will make every effort to record and, subsequently, post videos of these shows.

ALSO, our boys REHAB from back home are kickin ass and takin names. Pick up on their new Universal release "Graffiti the World" and check out Danny Boone from REHAB on Mandorico's tune "Second Thought". Much love to those guys and congrats on the success and kick ass music you've been making for better than 10 years. May your cups runneth over bitches!

Peace,
Jesse and Matty

holy crapolios, we just got out of a marathon rehearsal with the new crew. it is unbelievably sickening how good these guys sound. we have a new picture folder up as well as some video from the rehearsal coming soon. we're FINALLY ready to start putting up some dates. be on the look out for new posts with SoCal dates very soon! keep dropping by and sending love. we're workin hard. thanks and see you soon, LIVE.

Rehearsals have been going really well. Sorry we haven't taken pics, I suck and Matt keeps forgetting the camera. We have some SICK, SICK, SICK musicians on board and a couple of them are even GIRLS. Very good people and some killer vibes in practices. We can't wait to get it back on stage and will be letting you guys know as things manifest. Looking like bone, trumpet, sax on the horn section so it will be huge! Spread the flavor and get ready for the return of the punkylatinreggae madness. We wanna make sure things are tight before we put it on stage but trust us, it'll be worth it. Very worth it. Keep sendin love and we'll keep you posted, we're workin our asses off. More soon!
