Band Members: The 180 Project is:
DJ Dave James - Turntablist/DJ
Reppin' St. Louis as his birthplace, David still refers to Cleveland Ohio as his hometown. Currently residing in Orlando, FL, David started out as a DJ around 2000 mixing records and hosting parties in his hometown for locals and friends. Developing a love for the art of scratching and he still incorporates it in his music to this day. He began working the club scene for a few years but decided to pursue audio engineering at Full Sail in Orlando to further his knowledge of professional music production. He now works producing music for many local and out of state artists as well as himself. He can be constantly found digging in crates of vinyl for samples for his next hit. His style is unlike any others but shows glimpses of New York style beat making as well as a scratching derived from battle DJ's of the late 90's. He plans on heading into the future by bringing back to the forefront the great blues, soul, jazz, and r&b of long ago combined with a unique take on samples and beats of today.
John Morton - Guitar/Keys
John Morton is an amalgomation of sorts. Having lived most of his life in Florida, he was exposed to the foundations of blues/soul music at an early age. Rooted in the blues from the greats like the 3 King's (Freddie, Albert, and BB), to the modern day masters of Curtis Mayfield, Eric Clapton, Dennis Belfield, and Derek Trucks, anyone can tell the depth of his talent. Performing on stage as early as 11 years old, he has opened for many historic greats, include KoKo Taylor, Robert Cray, Dr John, The Meters and many others. His method to performing is buried deep in his love for pushing his own personal limits. He loves to be on the cutting edge of that "new sound", constantly creating music that no one has ever heard before, or will soon hear after.
