My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 3/14/2006
Band Website: iyarah.musicnation.com/
Band Members:

Me, myself & I. Guitars, bass, keys (a novice at best), percussions, Pro Tools and a decent drum pad/sampler. Trying to master all the trades I've jacked!
Influences:

THE MOST-I! JAH'S SEED! My family & friends, New Orleans' culture, REAL MUSIC (not this here today-gone tomorrow, cookie-cutter crap that you here on today's radio), true revolutionaries & rebuilding our roots/my city! Musical influences range from funk, punk rock, reggae, hip-hop, neo-soul, jazz, blues, world, trance/acid-jazz, thought-provoking, off-the radar-style music...SEEN!!!
Sounds Like:

My style is ORTHODOX, yet EFFECTIVE! Tony is that music that is missing from your CD collection! Like the spirits of Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley jumping inside of Sly Stone and transforming the man like Voltron! Guitars a blazin' and drums a beatin'. Tony sounds like 10,000 chariots! Rebel music! Heavy, conscious funk-n-roll, N'awlins stylee!
