We’ve seen some interesting sponsors for some of the riders over the years from underwear to chicken restaurants, to coffee and Hot Wheels. Now, Adam Banton has picked himself up a Health Supplements sponsor called Garden of Life for 2014. Check out the news below!

“2014 has already proven that it’s going to be a good year for me. I’m stoked and honored to let you know I’m now eating, cooking with and snacking on Garden of Life Health Supplements – the best RAW, Non-GMO Certified Organic products out there. Eating raw whole real foods means not getting sick on roads trips, pedaling further on weekends, riding longer sessions and giving my body what it needs to try a tech trick 150 times before I pull it.

It also means knowing I’m taking care of myself in a way that’s going to allow me to sustain my riding career for many years to come.“

Adam Banton – 5 for 5

Fat Tony shot this for Alli Sports, but it seems they have changed course on their video content, and this video got trapped int he void. Well, Fat Tony brought it back to life, pulled off the Alli logos and now it’s up for the world to enjoy. Any Adam Banton footage is a treat, no matter when it was filmed.

Head on over to the Red Bull website to check out a fresh Q&A with Adam Banton about his new album “Escapism” that he’s currently trying to raise money for on KICKSTARTER. As of right now there’s 4 days left and he needs to raise a little under $2,000 more dollars to make this a reality, so go help him out!

Adam Banton and Escapism

November 26, 2013

Here I thought I posted this the other day, but it would appear I blew it and didn’t get it posted yet! Our friend, Adam Banton, is in the process of finishing up his 3rd album and he needs your help to raise the $5,000 he needs to wrap things up and get it out there! Adam has set up a Kickstarter that is already over halfway to his goal, but there are only 10 days left to make this happen! So if you have a few dollars to spare and like music, go get involved and contribute a few bucks right here!

“This has been a massive learning experience and starting a Kickstarter was never in the plans to finish “Escapism”, but one thing lead to the next and I had these other amazing musicians become involved, thousands of dollars of gear loaned to me, some free studio time, and amazing job of mixing with a stellar discount. Even with all this, it lead to extra expenses. Saying that I ever had a “budget” is a joke. But I have to finish this 3rd album the proper way. It deserves it, the pother people deserve it and for the people that will buy this, they deserve it. Getting mastered by a real engineer, mastered for iTunes, then again differently for vinyl, and last, pressing the records. Escapism is all instrumental having a strong south west, desert feel.

If ever there was a time I have personally felt a strong BMX community, it has been the last 3 weeks. People pulling through for me and this record, posting the link, and pledging money on Kickstarter have been amazing.

We are at $2,633.00 of the $5k minimum goal with 10 days left. Kickstarter is all or nothing. If I’m 100 short, then I get zero money. And no ones bank account gets touched. Lets get Escapism to the $5k goal so I can share it with the world!

Many heart felt thanks!” – Adam Banton

Crooked World has been doing this Rare Air series for a while now, but I’m pretty sure that Adam Banton’s edition here is my favorite. From his sinister sister to him being shocked at his own ignorance, this is a classic.
