Deriving their influences from jazz, funk, soul, hip hop, pop and R&B, No Stone has evolved their sound into something refreshingly unfamiliar. This 7 piece funk band fuses the sounds of all things groovable to create a new meaningful sound that keeps people coming back for more. Fronted by a lady of soul and backed by a dynamic sax duo and a 4 piece rhythm section who live in the pocket, No Stone knows how to lay it down. Throw in the occasionally featured hip hop duo "RAWsteady" and you have a show that will not likely be forgotten
No Stone has been on the block since 2002, but their first years as a band simply served as a warm up for what has been a tremendous 2007 for the band. No Stone has played in some of the hottest music spots in Toronto and often shared the stage with some of the most respected indie artists on the Toronto scene. Some highlights include:
- Performing in front of a sold out crowd at The Boogiedown Massacre at Revival with 2007 Toronto Independent Music Awards recipient of best live act KC Roberts and DJ Sean Sax
-Featuring at the Markham Jazz Festival and almost selling out their entire press of the No Stone Album
- A Sold out Wednesday night crowd at the Rivoli alongside Methodology and Emma Lee
- Breaking in Mississauga's premier live music venue "The Lost Lounge" with Word People and Juno rap recording of the year nominee Arabesque
-Headlining OXFAM's annual "Music 4 Change" fundraiser
-Warming up the crowd at Hard Rock Cafe's Club 279 for William the Conquerer's CD release party.
-The Sonicsoul Summer Party at Revival alongside Methodology
-A VERY successful CD release performance for a capacity crowd at the Annex Wreckroom.
2007 was big. The band plans to make 2008 even bigger. "You never heard of No Stone you better ask around".
