the radio dude asked us ehat makes the The Trio of OZ tick! We
Told Him the heart and soul of the band is te communication!
We spoke about the freedom that comes with a common knowledge of musics, pop,rock,R&B , alt rock,jazz and being able to draw upon these references at any moment!
Solomon brings a freedom and a joy to his music that is so inspiring!

Mad grooves!
