Beginning in the summer of 2002 in Santa Maria, Klockwyze began creating reggae-rock-funk driving rhythms and jams blended with rude in-your-face rhymes and smooth subtle melodies.Klockwyze has grown and evolved and has become a high-spirited eight-headed beast fused from ska, reggae, punk, funk, metal, and hip-hop with band members from Santa Maria, Orcutt, and Lompoc, California.Steve Hillock rocks the microphone with a barrel of crazy rhymes and witty lines with life-experiences-driven storytelling, and on vocals and guitar Browney brings a ruff'n'tuff reggae-flow style.Ricky 'The Dragon' Santiago (Quazi) keeps it traditional and rude on the black and whites, and lead guitarist Greg Lloyd is fluent in the languages of funk, blues, and 'psychedelic-soul-thrash.'AJ Murray lays down the grumblin'n'thumpin' dub-rock bass bounce while Brian Freeman a.k.a.(FLEXY) kicks the beats rockin' and in-the-pocket and croons the smooth melodies.The Klockwyze horn section keeps it wild and zany with Robert Petersen on trumpet and trombone. Together, they bring a powerful big-band flavor to Klockwyze's rock and reggae foundation.As you can see, our band has many members and individually has many different influences. Together we work as one, energetic, unique sound. We have fun playing bars, clubs, festivals, house parties, and have opened for Toots and the Maytals, The Expendables, Common Sense, Eek-A-Mouse, and Fishbone just to name a few.
