According to Bazooka gives you something to chew on -- indie-folk-pop tunes with a vintage vibe. Their original songs dip into the communal subconscious to come up with instant favorites that blend catchy melodies with timeless lyrics. A2B delivers their signature sound with a blend of archtop guitar, accordion, upright bass, drums, and vocal harmony. 

The band celebrates the release of their third Album “The Devil’s in the Details” featuring upbeat well-crafted tunes and irresistible pop melodies. Singing about life’s travels, relationships and reappraisals, this indie folk pop quartet has a vintage vibe, tight harmonies and a distinctively California flavor! A2B's neo-folk stylings recently gained the band two 2019 Sacramento Music Award SAMMIES nominations: best "folk/bluegrass" and best "singer songwriter." 

The folk genre only begins to describe this Northern California band's distinctive sound. A2B's music walks the boundaries of definition. Their musical world evokes a nostalgic response as it draws from rock and roll, folk, blues, country, zydeco and beyond. A2B's lively songs and honest lyrics invite listeners on a playful journey of relatable tales and everyday humanity. The quartet's contagious energy spills over in live performances as their irresistible musical interplay lures listeners to the dance floor. 

According to Bazooka features Richard Urbino (guitar, vocals), René Martucci (accordion, vocals), Jamie Knapp (upright bass, vocals) Don Johnston (drums, percussion).

Their 2019 album , The Devil’s in the Details,” marks According to Bazooka's third independent release. It was produced by Sacramento Pop talent David Houston and recorded at Moon Studio, as was A2B's 2017 record "Where We Are Now."
