Influences: We pull our art from our lives, our experiences, our successes and failures. What you hear is from our heart as well as our blood, sweat and tears. Our infuences go as far back as the 50's and 60's to the roots of Rock and Soul. We are heavily influenced by the 70's and what our parents used to listen to like Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, James brown and all of the motown greats. We grew up at the birth of hip hop and love all the greats. We are also big fans of the rock ballad. Today we are typically a hip-hop/pop group but we like to consider ourselves more world music as we can get a bit folky at times.
