MUSIC ROAD CO
Join Music Road Co, a cooperative of common creative companions conspiring to command your cognitive locomotion.
This crew digs through a wide and deep catalog of tunes and musical traditions to get you groovin’ and your hip bones movin’!!
Where does Music Road Co find its inspiration? And why does it connect so perfectly with audiences of all ages and backgrounds? The answer might lie in their widespread roots. Coming from such diverse places as South Africa, Ecuador, Key West, Maryland and Virginia, the band brings many cultural influences together to produce music without boundaries.
Moving fluidly from funk to reggae, rock to afro-beat, their sound bounces from blues and soul to island dance and back again, bound together by one common ideal: Music should feel good and spread positive vibes. They get on stage to lift themselves up to a higher frequency and they won’t stop until they bring the entire audience with them.
AMANDA BOCCHI & THE SOUL FLOOD
Amanda Bocchi & The Soul Flood are a neo soul trio from Roanoke, VA. Musical elements from jazz harmony, hip hop beats, roots music, and soul vibe to inspire a flood of emotion.
Amanda is the southern flavor of female singer/songwriter heroines like Fiona Apple, Lana Del Rey, Portishead, while pulling heavily from jazz giants, Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday.
MOVIE: THE CROODS: A NEW AGE
Searching for a safer habitat, the prehistoric Crood family discovers an idyllic, walled-in paradise that meets all of its needs. As tensions between the neighbors start to rise, a new threat soon propels both clans on an epic adventure that forces them to embrace their differences, draw strength from one another, and survive together.
