(from the website) “Underground Rats is a diverse 7-member music group consisting of a dynamic 3-piece horn section:
Tristan V.: sax
Kevin T.:trombone/timbales/percussion
Joe S.
Our music is humbly illuminating, our sound is captivating. In essence we’ve combined Afro Beat, Funk, and Rock with a hint of Caribbean Roots and heartfelt conscience songs to form a colorful hypnotic sound with an upbeat presence and a very welcoming hip moving groove that resonates throughout our songs. Our goal is to inspire, connect with one’s deepest emotions, liberate, bring joy and even hope to the ears of the beholder. Throughout the course of the band’s musical journey, UnderGround Rats has won over the hearts of music lovers from all walks of life. Performing at a variety of venues, making dozens of appearances, and continuing to record new singles, we serve as both an inspiration and a role model to the seekers of the 21st century.”
