Bio
A deep pocket of FUNK explodes like a seismic wave of groove through the crowd! The sound of vinyl moving across the diamond stylus cracks like thunder! A sea of bodies bouncing in unison! These are the sights and sounds of CG dominating the stage.
Six talented musicians come together somehow find a Common Ground in their music. Blending Funk, R&B, Reggae, Hip-Hop and Rock into a cohesive original sound can be tough, but these guys have done it!!
The bands influences include: The Roots, Jeff Buckley, 311, Incubus, Bob Marley, The Police, KISS, Sublime and Phish
.No wonder they are so diverse.
Their first album, a full length self-titled one, was released in the summer of 2003. It contains 11 power packed songs and has received rave reviews.
