Grown Folks,
The band has mixed their personal music and life experiences to bring forth a mature sound everyone can connect to. Together they blend technical command with emotional honesty, crafting arrangements that are both sophisticated and immediately relatable. The result is music for listeners who appreciate nuance, groove, and songs that reflect real life.

Joshua Sailor — Multi-Instrumentalist / Producer / Engineer
