Founded in 2008, the group has gone through many changes and experiences to see them where they are today. Having started as a Gospel Acappella group, they have evolved through the years by incorporating The Blues, Hip Hop and even elements of rock and gospel to their sound.
They teamed up with producer extraordinaire JR under his record label Feel Good Music, a collaboration that is bound to see the group soar to greater heights. Following their listening session held at Gardenia Boutique Hotel in Craighall Park, the group have released of their first single “Phila” translated – English “Live”. Their full-recorded album is expected in the first quarter of 2017.
