Mostly known as a rapper, Wax writes songs in a wide range of styles that cater to many different types of audiences. Some are advanced technical displays of rap word play, some are heartfelt tales of struggle, some are inspirational numbers containing optimistic advice and/or guidance.  

Billy Galewood is an American singer, songwriter, and rapper from Cleveland who ended up in California where he continued to hone his eclectic acoustic/hip-hop sound. His shows blend hip-hop, acoustic rock, funk, improvisation, and comedy.

Monette Marino began drumming at age eight and has spent the majority of the last 20 years studying under master drummer Mamady Keïta from Guinea. She branched out as a solo artist and continues to explore drumming systems with a deep respect for the cultural heritage preserved through the language of the drum.
