InfluencesThe Post Ill Modern Sounds of Black Garage is an expression of our devotion to everything that is black and beautiful; Tupac, Otis Redding, Johnny Cash, Keith Richards. You see, OUR HIP HOP & SOUL IS THE NEXT ROCK N' ROLL. To put it to you straight, we sound like outkast and Jimi Hendrix just chillen at a BBQ, and the Rolling Stones crashed party, but it's all good see, because they brought Reefer and Band Aids man - you dig? I thought so.
Sounds LikeWe sound like The Blaxstonz. We try to sound like The Rolling Stones just to prove our point. One of these Staxxtoberfests we are going to play The Chronic 2001, note for note - I swear to god. But most of all, we pay homage to the most underrated and underappreciated Label in the history of Popular music; the greatest, the most funktuhfied, integrated, so damn dirty soulful I'm just glad they made it, gang of Memphis-American Angels ever to reach into the basket of Americana and come out with a armful of ghetto gold - god bless you - Stax/Volt RIP. Please moment of silence (15 seconds). Amen.

   About The Staxx Brothers
A Detroit rapper, a Puerto Rican Jagger, and a Gypsy walk out of a bar with one of the seminal Rock & Roll Records of the past decade. Backed by Seattle Jazz & Rock heavyweights Joe Doria, Dave Carter, Andy Coe and RL Heyer, The Staxx Brothers have created a living document that uncovers Seattle’s lost identity as an urban crossroad for classic R & B, Hip Hop and Hard ASS Soul. It all starts with The 12th Street Blues.

-Dylan Van Keef

At the classic LP length of 46 minutes, The 12th Street Blues takes the listener through an analog signal path and back out on the streets, in a journey that defines The Staxx Brothers experience. Breaking the rules by realizing the true range (and influence) of American Soul, The 12th Street Blues is paved with gold. ‘Slowdown’ and ‘Easy Rider’ are post rap suites, the rave up ‘Black Market’ rocks relentlessly, and the Hip Hop opera ‘Keep the Motor Runnin’/ ‘Toshin’’ amble easily from New Orleans to Jamaica. As the album takes on another surprising turn towards the home stretch, the whiskey soaked ballad, ‘Back Home’ (recorded live) chases country back into the arms of Ray Charles. When the curtains finally close in full salute to Seattle’s greatest icon, on ‘JMH I & II’- The Staxx Brothers give it all up for Jimi Hendrix in 10 incendiary minutes.

The Staxx Brothers have shared the stage with Blake Lewis, Kevin Sawka, Maktub, and Porter Batiste Stoltz of the Funky Meters. Members of the group have also performed alongside artists ranging from Tone Loc, the Drifters to Ray Charles.
