Band Members: Cris Jackson
Influences: Too many to ever attempt to mention in one sentence, a paragraph or a multi-paged tribute. The strongest would have to be Duke Ellington, Louie Armstrong, Miles Davis, John Coltraneand Theolonius Monk from Jazz. Jimi Hendrix, Prince and Kurt Kobain from Rock. Tupac, Nas, Jay-Z, Biggie Smalls, Common, and Eminem from Hip-Hop. Finally, rounding out the genres would have to be Go-Go, including groups like BYB, The Uncalled 4 Experience, CCB, Rare Essence, Trouble Funk and of course Chuck Brown.
Sounds Like: A new and revolutionary mix of hip-hop, jazz, and Go-Go. For those of you that are not native to DC, you will come to learn more about Go-Go the more you listen to my music.
