Dan Hicks serves up his unique fashion, attitude, and swagger that are embodied in his outlaw eccentricity and totally unique sound. His counter-culture appeal, which has twice landed him on the cover of Rolling Stone, has always been rooted in his songwriting. Dan’s lyrics have been touted as one of the sharpest-tongued, driest-witted, and subtly hilarious bits of irreverence ever committed to rhyme. He sets these lyrical gems to quirky tunes to trade on a bagful of jazz chords and an irresistible rhythms. This music gets under your skin, and the lyrics are set loose upon your unsuspecting brain. It’s one heck of a good time!

Three-time Grammy nominee, Wayne Wallace, is one of the more respected African American-Latin
Music artists in the world today. He is known for the use of traditional forms and styles in combination with
contemporary music. Born and raised in San Francisco, at an early age Wayne was exposed to Blues,
Country and Western, and Jazz. The fertile musical environment of the San Francisco Bay Area shaped his
career in a unique way. Wayne’s studies of Afro-Latin music and Jazz have provided a solid foundation for his current explorations of the intersections of diverse cultural styles, and rhythmic concepts.
Wayne has performed, recorded and studied with acknowledged masters of the Afro-Latin and Jazz idioms
such as Aretha Franklin, Bobby Hutcherson, Earth Wind and Fire, Pete Escovedo, Santana, Julian Priester,
Conjunto Libre, Whitney Houston, Tito Puente, Steve Turre, John Lee Hooker, Con-funk-shun, Francisco
