“The Next Beastie Boys…” – Jermaine Dupri

“HardNox is The Future” – DJ Hollywood (Beatclan Artist Management – Las Vegas, Nevada)

“HardNox is a breath of fresh air! She’d Rather Be With The DJ is a HOME RUN for KSFM” – Byron Kennedy (Program Director KSFM Sacramento, CA)

“HardNox came to Waco and did a 30 minute set at a bar full of country music fans. After one song, they won the crowd over. It’s time to wake up and realize that these guys are the real deal! Super talented with great tunes and a second to none live show. Major phones on the new single!” – Darren Taylor Program Director/Morning Show KWTX Waco, TX

“The Brothers are musically diverse with unmatched energy. They are brilliantly creative and are hugely talented writers and composers” – Aaron Jacoves (former V/P, A&R for A&M Records, Virgin Records and Mercury Records, discovered and signed such bands as: SOUNDGARDEN, THE BLACK CROWES and EXTREME)

“Energetic and EXPLOSIVE” – Phil Tan (Grammy award-winning mix engineer credits include JERMAINE DUPRI, MARIAH CAREY, USHER, RIHANNA, THE NEPTUNES, LUDACRIS, GWEN STEFANI, TLC and more)

“I’ve never heard so much sound come from two guys!” declared another new fan after seeing HardNox light up the stage at Boise State University. The duo, comprised of artist/songwriter/production team – and brothers – Danny Boy and Jimbo, just finished stage diving into the college crowd of thousands. Tonight was just another crazy, animated show by the brothers who live to perform.

In a polluted music business full of manufactured teen pop stars, cloned rock bands, and bland rappers, the music industry is in need of something new and fresh – and HardNox is that breath of fresh air. Their sound is nearly unclassified, with a unique blend of hip-hop, rock, pop, and punk: it’s not just music, it’s an experience. Push play on any HardNox track and you will never expect what you hear. Just ask the students at Boise State and millions of others all over the country who’ve discovered HardNox.

HardNox began their music careers as DJs in the Bay Area of California. For nearly seven years Danny Boy and Jimbo were DJ favorites at middle schools, high schools, colleges, weddings, etc. They credit their DJing for establishing them as producers and artists: they knew what type of music moved crowds and which ones fell flat. So after years of spinning the same old songs, they were inspired to push their creativity to new levels and rock the house with their own material. Working out of their own garage studio (remember when musicians actually started in garages?…the good ‘ol days), HardNox has produced a solid list of albums including “Garage Sale” and “I Go Dumb Off This Heavy Metal”, plus various EP’s and their critically acclaimed rock remixes of artist such as Savage, Soulja Boy, T.I., Drake, Jay-Z and many more.

The independent label act has already been heard on Rhythm and Top 40 radio worldwide and been enlisted by major corporations such as Verizon Wireless to record and produce one of their most recent critically acclaimed commercials for the Samsung “Juke” phone. Soon after the commercial’s success, HardNox released their hit single “She’d Rather Be With The DJ” and the song is being played all over the country on Top 40 radio stations such as Z100 in New York, KLUC in Las Vegas, KSFM in Sacramento, KWYL in Reno, and KSLZ in St. Louis. The single is also tearing up the hottest clubs in Las Vegas, the entertainment capital of the world.

Danny Boy and Jimbo represent a do-it-yourself work ethic that never shuts off. The duo credit their tenacity and relentless perseverance to the De La Salle High School football program (Concord, CA). Both Danny Boy and Jimbo played for the De La Salle Spartans while attending school and have maintained the diligence and determination that went into being a Spartan player and carried it into the music business. So it’s no surprise that when HardNox is not on the road promoting and performing, they’re at home in Concord, CA making new music in their garage. The brothers produce, write, record, mix, and master all their material, which ranks them in the gifted few in the music industry. Hardnox has shared the stage with Nelly, Ashanti, Cherish, Baby Bash, Danity Kane, Chamillionaire, Lit, Christina Milian, Bubba Sparxxx, Rick Ross, E-40, Bone Thugs n Harmony, Amerie, The cast of Laguna Beach, Playboy and many more. Jermaine Dupri, hip-hop mogul and powerhouse, has dubbed Hardnox “the next Beastie Boys.” Others have related them to The Offspring, Eminem, Linkin Park, and Lil Jon, all in which have little in common making Hardnox a musical entity of their own genre. They are HardNox, and you are going to be a fan.
