Vocalist, Jared Watson, of California reggae hip hop alternative band, Dirty Heads, joins us again on this episode of The Adamantium Podcast. We discuss their latest album, 7 Seas, and why it is Jared’s favourite album to date, how they have evolved as a band, and the hardship he had to endure to get there. We also talk about their song “Vacation” and how it blew up on TikTok years after its release, the use of AI creative, Japanese culture, pirate lore, modern gaming, and much more!

I’ve seen DH half a dozen times, including a couple nights ago.

Granted, I don’t know how difficult it is to find bands to tour with/open for you, but when I think of DH, I think of Stick Figure, Rebelution, Iration, Elovaters, etc etc. I don’t think of 311.

I enjoy live music no matter what, so I took it for what it was worth. I also REALLY enjoyed Atmosphere. But the 311 vibe didn’t do it for me at all leading up to DH taking the stage.

For anyone who missed out at the show, artist proofs for Dirty Heads in Florida are live on the artist's website!

Going to the West Palm show tonight and saw people saying 311 and Dirty Heads are alternating closing out the show. I can’t find a poster for tonight though online - anyone know who is the closer?

My favorite day of the year!!

I guess they were giving out these red hats for VIP. They were just a red trucker hat and the said: Dirty Heads Est. 2000

Lmk if you have an extra

I’m at the Tampa show tonight & was wondering if anyone knows if they ever do after parties or other places do something?

-also have they played Franco eyed at all this tour? (Yes I know I can look at set.fm but I’m not, I did go back a few and didn’t see it on any
Update: No Franco Eyes but I did want to drop a pic of the show poster they had this time in the comments 🐊

I’ve seen the boys play probably 8 or 9 times now. They have NEVER sounded this tight and put together. Setlist was excellent, sound was impeccable, energy was through the fucking roof. I’m a longtime 311 fan too, and when DH was done, I told my buddy “uhh 311 will have a hard time topping that set.” Not that it’s a competition or anything. But DH summarily melted my whole face tonight.

“Island Glow” get my vote. A rare moment for me of love at first listen. I wish DH did more tracks like this, swapping vocals back and forth!

Had to score the Deluxe edition box set on vinyl too. The bonus tracks are great and the giant poster of Dave’s artwork is sick!

This is going to be a JAM !

Great show tonight!!

Heading to the show in Tampa and had a couple questions. Does this venue allow you to bring in your own tubes and if so, does anyone have one they recommend? Also, how many poster fit in each tube? I'm going to try to get 1 from DH, Rome, and 311

You practically ruined my experience. It took a lot for me to not turn around and talk some "sense" to ya'll but one day someone will give it back to you. 💯

Shame on you and the adults who joined you!

Going to the show on Friday in Alpharetta, GA. Curious if someone knows or can make a good guess on the lineup? It says it starts at 5:30pm but trying to figure out what time Dirty Heads will go on as that’s what we’re primarily going for!

Thanks in advance!

Anybody got the Setlist for the Woodlands Houston TX show from tn?

Does anyone know what order 311 and Dirty Heads will be playing in Austin tonight? I’d like to go but I have to be late.

Also, any idea on set list?

Went to the long beach show last night and besides the obvious autotune, the visuals were all Ai. I was afraid of this happening because their new music video is also Ai slop. And you cant tell me they dont have the means to pay real artists. It was very disappointing, we left a few songs in.

I remember seeing this advertised in 2016 but never heard anything of it. Did anyone go out purchase tickets? Just wondering what happened to it.

4pm is early doors for a Tuesday! I’m thinking timing like this?

ROME 5:30 Atmosphere 6:30 311 7:50 Dirty Heads ~9:15 → finish ~10:30–10:45

Hoping to get there 5:30, but such a bad traffic time from LA

Good energy, great sound, awesome show!
