Hey fam — thanks for stopping by.

My name is Derek Barros, I'm the founder and CEO of CueBuds. I’m a veteran, a DJ, a music producer, and someone who’s spent more nights than I can count surrounded by speakers, loud music and Raving lunatics, Myself included.

CueBuds was conceptualized in during my time spent in Ibiza but was actualized in Barcelona, developed in Boston and refined in San Francisco.

I spent many days, many nights, Searching high and low and scouring the internet for the right product to offer the public. It wasn't easy but I managed to see it through and create something i'm really proud of.

What is that you might ask? Well it's the reason our paths are crossing. This website. The awareness I created. The brand I built, and the amazing product that sells at a competitive but fair price point.

That product is..

CUEBUDS- A high-fidelity concert earplug that is stylish, versatile, re-useable comfortable, and offers a -18 decibels of harmful noise reduction.

And it doesn't end there...

You see.. CUEBUDS isn’t just a product to me, and CUE isn't just a brand.. It’s a reflection of what I care about:

Protecting and preserving the culture. Supporting artist and creatives. Building something from the ground up with love, care, intention, and a whole lot of bass.

This brand is for the ones who stay up way too late. The ones who love music so much and listen to it way too LOUD. The ones who push themselves to the limit. The ones who chase sound, who chase a thrill; an experience, and a little bit of freedom. If that’s you—welcome to the CUE. You’re home.

I’m not backed by some giant company. This is real. Independent, and Passion-fueled.

Every pair of CueBuds out in the world means a lot more than a sale.

It means someone’s listening.

Thank you for reading

- Derek
