Calicove

Meet Calicove, a Bay Area collective of rock & roll and hip-hop prodigies who are changing the face of entertainment.

Meet Calicove, a Bay Area collective of rock & roll and hip-hop prodigies who are changing the face of entertainment. Reminiscent of the emerging 90's rock and rap collaborations, Calicove is largely inspired by Run DMC, Nirvana, Tupac, and more current artists Jay-Z and Linkin Park, to name a few. Not to be pigeon-holed into any one style, they coined their own crossover genre: Rap N’ Roll. But they are greater than just a band. Calicove is an entity that transcends racial, musical, and cultural boundaries through its innovative compositions and image. The high-energy live show features a band with a DJ and is fronted by emcees Authentic and Amazin…and yes, they are. Fans have already reserved copies of 808’s and Rock N’ Roll, the Calicove mixtape that is due out this Spring. It features comedian Spanky Hayes and Bay Area hip hop icons Clyde Carson, Mayne Mannish, and Turf Talk. After some turbulent experiences with other groups and labels, the members created this group to ensure the musical and business outcome that they would respect and trust. Spearheaded by emcee, Travis “Authentic” Lindsley, Calicove recently signed to his independent label, Authentic Entertainment. With no room for a plan B, Calicove is on the grind and is steadily pushing. There is no doubt the fruits of their labor will be realized with grammies, sold out stadiums, and die hard fans in the years to come. Experience Calicove, authentic entertainment for the mass
