Boba Fett and the Assassin Droids

Boba Fett and the Assassin Droids was an underground musical group named after Boba Fett, a famous bounty hunter and assassin droids, considered an illegal technology by the Galactic Empire. The band played on the planet Adarlon during the Galactic Civil War. Even if they lacked any real musical talent, they obtained a number of followers among organic non-Human communities. Although Boba Fett had not shown any interest in his namesakes, they attracted the attention of the Imperial Board of Culture, who officially forbade several of their singles in an unsuccessful attempt to stop them.

History
"Boba Fett and the Assassin Droids" was a musical group considered to be newly-formed soon after the Battle of Yavin. Throughout the following four years, they obtained a regularly-growing community of adherents, and even a cult following. Many of the followers were organic non-Humans, for reasons nobody could explain.

Boba Fett and the Assassin Droids settled in the planet Adarlon, which was far from the Galactic Core and, thus, from the most stringent censors of the Galactic Empire. The Droids obtained success and became a fashionable act. Local merchants believed they could make money by ferrying audience to the Droids' concerts.

During the Galactic Civil War, the Droids released several singles to the galactic distribution nets, including among others "IG-88, Where R U?," named after the real assassin droid IG-88, and "If You're a Biped, I Can Make U Limp." As their tracks were widespread, they attracted the attention of the Imperial Board of Culture, who considered at least two of the songs, "Blow 'em All Away" and "Who Cares (If Freedom's Gone)?," to be too dangerous, meaning anti-Imperial, for broadcasting. Those two songs were then banned.

The Droids nonetheless were making advances in the intergalactic market, and publicly showed their intention to release a complete album in the near future. The band's detractors considered this to be a threat.

Organization
Boba Fett and the Assassin Droids was a band without any kind of musical talent, and a style that was far more violent than other underground bands to which they were compared to.

The group was named after Boba Fett, a renowned Mandalorian bounty hunter, and a kind of droid that was forbidden through the galaxy. The group had not attracted the attention of Fett, and experts believed that he would not deign to take measures against the band if their activities somehow reached his ears.

Behind the scenes
Boba Fett and the Assassin Droids were first mentioned in the role-playing book Galaxy Guide 9: Fragments from the Rim, written by Simon Smith and Eric S. Trautmann and published in 1993 by West End Games for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.
