“Bought And Sold” was able to convey their uncongenial nature while sticking to their charismatic energy.

What inspired you to form IckyBaby?
The formation of IckyBaby was driven by emotion. We actually began as a persona created by our vocalist Toni, fueled by the need to be heard and to be able to express herself. The other members of the current lineup were drawn to this energy and gradually joined in.
Where are you guys from?
Toni (vocals) is from Pasadena, Carl (drums) is from Pittsburgh, Alex (guitar) is from Chicago, and Adam (bass) is from Gosphord, Australia. We believe that each our individual backgrounds help us to bring a unique flavor to the group.
How would you describe most of your music?
-Honest, blunt, relatable, energetic, heavy, genuine, and original. We bring a distinctive sound that attracts music fans from all over.
What’s the most appealing factor about rock music?
The ability to express oneself. We do not strictly identify as rock, although it is obviously a significant element for us. The honesty and versatility of rock music has always been appealing for all of us.
”Bought And Sold” sound like a great song to be performed live, have you guys had the chance to do so yet?
Yes we have, and the audience response has been overwhelmingly positive. The rhythm of the drums and bass line create an atmosphere that inspires the audience to move, while Toni’s voice and lyrics penetrate their emotions.
What’s the plan for 2019?
We would very much like to go on tour, play a festival or two, perform at new venues, and make new fans. While these are the ideal milestones for 2019, our ultimate goal is just to put more music out into the world.
