Bio
Chicago players all from different backgrounds, melt a sound inspired by everything from Gregory Isaacs & the temptations (to) snoop dog & sublime. EP out soon
toeknee met up with rj by playing percussion in a improv-based organic hiphop band in 2007 (called mapping the audio landscape) about a year after that disbanded, both rj and toeknee got back together to do something with a little more soul, inspired with Motown hits and dance hall reggae a sound was quickly formed. Rolan Valazquiz' return from Berkly to Chicago couldn't have happen at a more perfect time, as the cough was forming and needed a new bass player. Tristan Diaz was brought on through connections rj had made playing live shows in Chicago, together making Robert James and the cough.
