About

Electronic rock duo BoomBox, consisting of brothers Zion Rock Godchaux and Kinsman MacKay bring heavy organic grooves and soulful beats that penetrate through the dancefloor, and on to all facets of the human experience

Founded in Muscle Shoals, AL in 2004 by singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Zion Rock Godchaux, BoomBox has grown and evolved alongside loyal fans across the globe. At the same time, the San Francisco Bay Area native stays true to the vibrations that have been moving bodies on the dancefloor since the beginning.

BoomBox has a signature type of groove rooted in a back-beat driven style, wrapped around smooth vocals and original lyrics. BoomBox songs also pull from a wide range of genres to cultivate a fusion of music that appeals to a broad audience. “The sound is about pulling from anything that you’d hear coming out of a boombox, and distilling into a distinctive style,” explains Godchaux. It’s this formula that gives BoomBox the unique ability to connect with any crowd regardless of age or origin.

“There’s a special kind of chemistry between two brothers playing music together,” says Godchaux. BoomBox shows are characterized by a mixture of drum machines and live-mixed computer beats laid down by Mackay, which create the foundation for Godchaux’s electric guitar riffs and soulful vocals to layer on top of.

BoomBox debuted their live horn section deemed “The BackBeat Brass” in the fall of 2019 to great reception. “It’s like these songs are my children that I’ve been raising for the past 15 years, and with the addition of the horns it feels like seeing them again for the very first time” says Godchaux. Led by trumpet artist Nic Chaffee and Saxophonist Robbie Covacevich, the BackBeat Brass will be featured on select shows moving forward. The two bring a classic live horn sound filtered through an array of psychedelic effects and elements that exquisitely integrates with the music that BoomBox fans know and love.

In addition to touring with their live sets, the duo can also be found dropping down and dirty DJ sets at special club and festival appearances. Regardless of which form of BoomBox you may encounter, be prepared to be getting down like there’s no tomorrow.

  • Incredible show / Iconic Images

    by Cone Magazine on 2/11/24Bowery Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Both Boombox & Tep No had an incredible show, the crowd was so engaged and energetic. We managed to get some iconic shots of both performers

  • Fantastic concert

    by Oceana on 2/5/24The Atlantis - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    Loved the venue, from location, to sound, to the vibe.

  • Something was off…

    by FenwayJohnny on 2/2/23Brighton Music Hall presented by Citizens - BostonRating: 3 out of 5

    So I still had a mostly groovy time. But it seemed like there were some sound issues. First 10ish min almost sounded like a prolonged sound check. Every time the horn section or song was really amping up, sounded like feedback issues. If I’m making the above up, then the band just had an off night.

  • Boom Box at Brighton Music Hall

    by P-Man on 1/31/23Brighton Music Hall presented by Citizens - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    Great venue, excellent staff very well run event! I paid for parking and didn’t know where to park. I was directed to a CVS parking lot but never saw the attendant. The manager John was right on it and took care of it and therefore I didn’t have to worry about my car getting towed. I would definitely go to another show there.

  • Needs more sax and some variation

    by Paul on 12/6/22Antone's Nightclub - AustinRating: 4 out of 5

    Fun show, left early. Needs more sax and other improvisation. Bass was really loud in the bathroom.

  • Epic

    by Sharona on 5/10/22House of Blues New Orleans - New OrleansRating: 5 out of 5

    This. Show. It was so amazing! The venue had a great vibe. The staff provided excellent service. BoomBox brought it so hard and played almost three hours!!! Eeeeee! I want to do it all again. Wouldn’t change a thing!

  • Concert was great. 930 club staff not so great.

    by Groovy Steps on 4/12/229:30 CLUB - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    Ive been a fan of Boombox for 11 years so I always jump at the opportunity to see the band when they come around my area. My only qualms was that the show started VERY late and the 930 staff had obviously had a long day and didnt want to be there. I was greeted with passivity and felt unwelcomed.

  • Real nice time.

    by Mooyay on 7/9/19Crystal Bay Club Casino Crown Room - Crystal BayRating: 5 out of 5

    had a reAl nice time at this event, real nice. I think BOOMBOX Outdid there January show, either way it was REAL NICE!

  • Dope

    by P. on 3/3/19Paradise Rock Club - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    Boombox was the dopest dope. Can’t wait to go again

  • Didn’t hold a candle to last years experience

    by Swisher on 3/3/19Paradise Rock Club - BostonRating: 3 out of 5

    This show was ok, relatively short and I was sad because I wanted to enjoy more of their music. I have to say I enjoyed last year’s show at the same venue a little more. Love their new tracks just felt the energy wasn’t there. I’ll be attending a few more of the Boombox shows this year and am hopeful for a better experience something with a little more feeling and connection to the crowd.
