Smokin' Gunz musical style and background is derived from straight forward rock-n-roll, combined with hard driving, country music styles, backed by heart felt harmony vocal arrangements, with some real foot tapping dance tunes to provide musical entertainment for all types of audiences regardless of their musical preferences. All of the group's material is written solely by the members themselves with inspiration based on real life experiences. Smokin' Gunz is comprised of talented musicians that become one with their instruments. Showmanship is first class and stage presence is fine tuned to a highly professional caliber not often found in the local venue circuits of the Chicagoland and surrounding areas.
