You would know Dicky Barrett as the lead singer and founding member of the legendary Ska-Punk band The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, but now he and some friends got together to form this "90s punk rock supergroup" called The Defiant. The Defiant is Pete Parada on drums (The Offspring), Greg Camp on guitar (Smash Mouth), Johnny Rioux on bass (Street Dogs), Joey La Rocca on guitar and keys (The Briggs), with Dicky Barrett front and center (The Mighty Mighty Bosstones.) Together the five create a rock n roll pedigree that culminates into a riot of melodic punk.

Dicky was also the announcer for Jimmy Kimmel Live! for almost two decades and in this conversation, we found out he even gives tours of the punk rock museum in Las Vegas.
