Brad Worrell (aka Brad Goop)
In the mid-90's Brad was the guitarist and chief songwriter of NYC-East Village pop/punk band The Goops, who released their first full length album on Blackout! Records in 1994. They toured extensively with bands like Rancid, The Offspring, Samiam, Garbage and appeared on MTV's Beavis & Butthead and the soundtrack for Kevin Smith's "Mallrats". The Goops signed to Warner Brothers/Reprise and released "Lucky" in 1996. "Vulgar Appetites", the video for the first single from the album, played on 120 Minutes and won an award for Best Music Video at the AICP Awards.When The Goops disbanded, Brad joined what would become 'version 2' of another notorious downtown NYC band, Clowns for Progress. He produced and co-wrote CFP's second album, "Progress" for Last Beat Records. More touring ensued with bands like The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Spacehog, The Offspring, 22 Jacks, Swingin' Utters and The Warp Tour. Their music has also appeared in films, including Spencer Tunick's "Naked States".
Shortly after joining CFP, Brad met Robb Hart and formed the production team Locked. Together they have remixed a variety of artists including J-Lo, Usher, Jeannie Ortega, J-Kwon, Babyface, Faithless, The Butthole Surfers and Adema. Locked have produced music for artists that include Borealis, Mike Down, Yoav, as well as numerous, original dance tracks of their own. They've licensed their music for advertising, film and created sound design and scoring for Kevin Ford's film "Three Days" about Jane's Addiction.
Brad continues to write and produce music and work with artists on his own. Wearing the hat of producer and enginer, he's recorded Sean Paul, Ryan Adams, Paul Oakenfold and numerous indie artists. As the "Scuba" half of his partnership with Scuba/Look Music, he wrote and produced music and sound design for advertising clients including Coca-Cola, Panasonic, ESPN, Heineken, Minute Maid, and Casio. He recently added "Music Supervisor" to his list of job titles after choosing and licensing all the tracks for the indie film "Tanner Hall" which included music by artists such as Stars, The Replacements and A Fine Frenzy.
