Johnny Maraca &
the Marockers

I had the opportunity to go behind the scenes with Johnny Maraca and the Marockers during a video shoot in the streets of Oakland. The energy was electric—fast-moving bodies, spontaneous choreography, and that unmistakable punk rock attitude set against an urban landscape. Shooting in real-time as the band and their crew sprinted, danced, and threw themselves into the moment was a thrill. It was less about staged perfection and more about capturing the raw spirit of the music as it unfolded.

It was awesome.
