Michael Franti, I think everyone ,nowadays, knows him.
Frontman of Spearhead.

But do we know him too as the frontman of the Beatnigs and the Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy ?

These recordings are some of his work that happened before Spearhead.

First, Michael Franti performing solo at the Crossing Border Festival , held at the Melkweg, Amsterdam, The Netherlands on October 27 2001.

Just one song. broadcasted just like the rest of this torrent, by VPRO Radio.

- Bomb The World.

Second, it's the Beatnigs.

The Beatnigs was an early collaboration featuring Michael Franti and Rono Tse. The band's stage performance included the use of power tools such as a rotary saw on a metal bar to create industrial noise and pyrotechnics. One venue for the band was the infamous Barrington Hall. Franti at the time worked for Berkeley's Subway Guitars. Songs like "Television: The Drug of the Nation" were performed by the band and were later rerecorded for their next project, The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy.
