Performing Artists

• 
  • Windy City
  • Windy City describes their music with one phrase: “Soul-Boogaloo,” or “organic soul.” After changing their name from Asoto Union, they’ve been actively performing through street shows and concerts with Dynamic Duo and Drunken Tiger. They've emerged as a new alternative in the soul groove scene and are receiving a great response with their first album.
• 
  • Hubbard
  • Hubbard, a new duo known for their progressive sound and pop-friendly melodies—a somewhat unbalanced structure—has made a far greater impact in Korea than in their native Japan. Their songs, reflecting their thoughts and lifestyle, are praised as some of the coolest and trendiest music of our time.
• 
  • Common Ground
  • With one vocalist and a whopping 11 instrumentalists, Common Ground is an acid soul band notable for its brass section—rare in Korean bands. The name, meaning “unanimous,” reflects their aim to break free from commercialized mainstream music and amateurish underground scenes. Their genre is a new blend: acid jazz infused with funk.
