Unique is a term often used to describe musical acts. Yet with the abundance of talented artist, they often seem like different variations of the same formula. Enter PS24-a truly unique trio of artists who have found a recipe for a delicious musical style that has transcended demographics and continues to satisfy listeners everywhere they go. They've coined the term "Folk-Hop" to describe their soulfull blend of folk(ish),hip-hop(ish),reggae(ish) music. Dont let the minimum instrumentation of "Waldo" on guitar and "Jali-D" on djembe drum fool you. The sound is as strong as a full band -and hits just as hard! These lay the perfect foundation for vocalist, "Psalm", who has a sound and style like none other. A comfortable blend of his Jamaican heritage and Brooklyn,NY upbringing, Psalm delivers insightful honest commentary on various life topics in a way that people appreciate, love, and want more of. His unique vocal quality and urbanlove vibe resonates with both men and women. His theatrical (professional actor) and dance (from b-boy to African) backround allow him to be comfortable and confident onstage, always drawing the audience in-and keeping them. Accompanying Psalm vocally and doing double duty with highpowered drumming, Jali-D injects sharp witty ryhmes with a style that is easily understood. Together, combined with Waldo's rich rhythmic strumming, PS24-a true American Folk-Hop band is born.
PS24 is based in Washington,DC. where they are the resident band at the popular venue "Busboys and Poets". They have performed throughout the area at various festivals, events, schools, etc. The group has also performed at music venues in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Baltimore, Va, NC. At every performance, without exception, PS24 wins over audiences, and attracts new fans.
PS24 has no boundries. Different, yet familiar. Fresh, yet ancient. A small band with a giant sound. These young men have a special recipe: Folk-Hop. Witness the unfolding of this refreshing musical style by this truly unique band.
