Long Island Sound
Long Island Sound
We Are: Evolution, Open Mic, Hi-C and W.B.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
We've been together for about 6 years now just doing our thing around Long Island, the 5 boroughs, and upstate NY. Open Mic and Evolution are the founding members having grown up around the corner from each other. Hi-C and W.B. came in about 6 years ago through various affiliations. We are still growing in numbers and are currently looking to add a female emcee and either a male or female vocalist. In addition we are also on the lookout for a steady producer to work with so we can spend more time on our lyrics.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Live shows are random, most likely to catch us freestyling at battles, shows, and on the block.
Your musical influences
Our musical influences vary widely. Evolution has roots in Punk, Hardcore, Ska and Reggae as well as all other types of music. He has performed in both Ska and Hardcore bands. Open Mic has and always will be a hip hop head. Hi-C is very much into the jam band scene as well as all other creative forms of expression. W.B. also has roots in hardcore and stays mostly underground with his hip hop as you can hear in his flow.
