RUDY: the grooviest band in all the land!
RUDY is. There is no succinct definition, just a motto: don't stop.
Starting back in 1996, a group of individuals came together with the
intent of jamming, having fun, and hanging out together. What started
as an informal get together turned into much, much more. Evolving
through the clubs and coffeehouses of the Southeastern US, RUDY became
a tight-knit jam outfit, stockpiling songs out of fantastic musical
hallucinations and playing them to sometimes bewildered, but always
entertained audiences far & extremely wide. The core members of
RUDY always gave more than expected, always played longer than thought
possible, and ALWAYS gave a warm, loving hand to the fabulous people
who fanatically followed them. Gaining steam at various festivals
throughout Florida, RUDY won the HORDE Band to Band Combat in March
of 1998, gaining a slot on the HORDE tour, as well as the 1998 HORDE
Compilation CD. An oft-bootlegged band, RUDY finally decided to record
a full-length album in the spring of 1998. The aptly titled "BOOTY"
is a 13 song tour de force through RUDY's twisted brain, including
"Brownies & Lemonade", which is also featured on the
1998 HORDE CD Compilation, as well as their HUGE hit "The Underpants
Song", which has found a home on radio stations worldwide! And
MTV has licensed the entire RUDY catalog to use on the soundtracks
of "The Real World" and "Road Rules", reaching
millions of people every time they air! Plus, RUDY has become a staple
on a nationally syndicated Disney show called "Z Games",
reaching kids of all ages! The "Taste the Love Tour" rolled
through 2000 and along the way, RUDY won BEST FUNK/SOUL BAND at the
statewide Jammy Awards! And now that they have released their long-awaited
second record "SEXY," they're multiplying the booty shaking
big time. "Cancun: The Reality Movie" and National Lampoon's
"Van Wilder" DVD release both feature Rudy's sexy music,
thrilling audiences worldwide. Plus, Kufala Records has released a
double live Rudy CD so you can experience a Rudy show in your own
home. Once you've been touched by RUDY,
you'll never be the same!
