____________________WHO WE ARE____________________
Dyno Jamz began when 7 musicians with jazz training and a passion for hip hop came together for a jam session in early 2008. The result was a groove to be reckoned with, and before long the crew acquired a talented emcee and scored a few gigs.
As full-time students at UW, the members of Dyno Jamz aren't necessarily trying to make it big... if you hear us and think "damn, I like the sound of that" then we have accomplished our sole mission.
Dyno Jamz plans to keep the creative juices flowing, so keep an eye out. We love to play and are always open to new show ideas and venues, so let us know what you think!
