I listened to these guys live at the Battle of the Boroughs and can't think of any other band to represent Manhattan better than them!

For those of you who weren't able to be there live, the energy in the room was absolutely palpable while these guys were performing. Just check out the last 20 seconds of the video and you can see how the audience was so electrified that they actually started standing and clapping BEFORE THE SONG WAS EVEN OVER!!!

"You guys have the talent and skill, but also there was fire, and part of why we wanted so much to give it up at the end is because you also held a little bit back from us... you had that one section that was very very quiet…so, again, 9 employed musicians?…. and chick on the drums? Yes, yes, yes! And you kicked our asses in 5/8, thank you very much" -Helga Davis, award winning vocalist & performance artist.

"Oh my God, that was fantastic! Let me tell you something, you guys transformed the environment of the venue…I was exactly where you wanted me to be. Your voices! You're gonna get this reaction every time you play, and that is an amazing thing. Your music was a tidal wave of fire and it hit you really strong. You have excellent showmanship, but you also have the talent and skill to back it up." -Alicia Olatuja, mezzo-soprano.

"I loved your style of music. The blend was amazing, the band was tight, it kept me going… I felt like I was part of the band, except I was sitting out here. I didn't understand a word you were saying, but I felt it! where can I buy your CD? For real!" -Steve Pageot, Grammy winner.
