Bio

Troy was born in Durban, South Africa moved to Australia when he was 9 and has been immersed in music from a very young age. His passion stemmed from writing poetry evolving into rhymes. He has developed his songwriting along with DJ’ing and over the last several years sound recording and production to produce original tracks featuring his distinct voice, quick wit and signature story-telling sound.

Kurt was born in Cape Town, South Africa moved to Australia when he was 5 and has always had a love for music. From a very young age he found himself singing along to Michael Jackson, Bobby Brown and Boyz II Men, which later developed into expression not only through singing but through songwriting as well. He has since ripened his unique sound, and has a diversity to produce a range of original tracks from funky and upbeat to smooth slow jams.

Sincere has a broad spectrum of cultural influences from being born in Perth Australia and being mixed Malaysian. When he was 15 trouble seemed to always be around and music was his escape from everything including himself. Over the last few years he has created his own style drawing from what he has learnt from the greats, along with his youthful vibrancy and energy he brings to any track, he knows how to have fun with a track and rock a crowd.

I have attached quick bios for Troy, Kurt nad Sincere, but I do not have one available for 4 Shaw at the moment as he is just getting back into the music game as his son has just turned 1.

Troy and Kurt have been finalists in WAM song of the year contest in 2004. URL: http://www.wam.asn.au/wsoty.htm#finalists

Troy and Kurt were both also top 10 finalists in the Musicoz awards(Australian unsigned Artist awards) in the Hip-Hop and R’n’b catgory for 2005. In 2006 Kurt also made it as a top 10 finalist again and Troy made it as a top 5 finalist both in the Urban category.

In August 2009 they went to KL and Phuket first and then Singapore for showcases, and 2 night performances at Arena Nightclub and they are in discussions to play at the Soul Nation Festival in Jakarta in October. They recently had a sold out concert at BamBOO Luxe Bar where they performed all original tracks with a live band.
