Testimonials
"They blew us away. Each band member was amazing and having the full ensemble set up and playing in the barn was beyond magical. They have an eclectic powerful sound – the entire crowd was moved to their feet and infected by the music. We can’t thank them enough for creating this special moment at our home and highly recommend them!"

"...Expect heavyweight funky drum crunch, big NOLA-style brass action and the yin of female soul vocals as well as the yang of a male emcee from the eight-piece outfit. The band’s compass is firmly pointing to party central..."

"When I heard the track it brought me back to those endless sandy nights with a cocktail in hand, listening to Krafty Kuts, Torpedo Boyz, Gramatik and the likes. Their message is quite clear and it oozes in their music."

“BVLC = always fun. The dynamics between the vocalists themselves and with the whole band are engaging af. They create a welcoming and immersive, almost liquid-like, experience into the hip-hop/funk-jam realm. Great to see so such variety and styles come together to create a whole greater than the sum of the parts. 5 stars.”
