The Routine is an American Rock and Roll band formed in the spring of 2013. Front man Bryan Barbarin is backed up by an all star band whose performance glides across genres from Classic Rock, Blues, Soul, and World Beat, all seamlessly and with ease. In their own words “Its Rock and Roll to rattle your soul”. 

 

The band was formed in the spring of 2013 when stage actor Bryan Barbarin moved away from the theatre and start playing music with childhood friend and local guitar teacher Russell Ramo. They leaped from playing acoustic covers in dive bars and restaurants to forming an original 5 piece band with the likes of bassist Nick Hein, drummer Dave Butterfield, and percussion player Eduardo Canelon.Within two months of forming they spent one day at Iacon Sound Studios (formerly blackbox) and recorded a five song EP titled "Rhinoceros". There were no overdubs or edits, just 5 songs recorded live and raw. Rhinoceros was streamed over 1,000 times in its first week of being uploaded on Bandcamp and fans continue to support their shows.

 

They have already played under the roof of notable venues including The Casbah, Winstons, and The Roxy(LA). The band's goal is to play festivals and venues locally, nationally, and eventually internationally.
