MARIA TRUJILLO - 
Lead Vocals and Percussion 
********************************************************************
Maria’s love for music and dance was evident at a very young age. While other kids were outside playing, she was inside watching “SOUL TRAIN” being influenced by the soulful sounds of the Motown "GREATS", such as Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Smokey Robinson, and Gladys Knight, just to name a few. This sparked something inside this young girl to love singing and performing. Although Motown will always be Maria’s first influence she also has many other varied influences that include, Gospel, Classic Rock, R&B, Cumbias, Salsa, & Funk. She began performing at the age of 17 with various Top 40 bands, always performing and singing with everything she has inside. Maria is well aware that her gift comes from her Father above, and it shows.

Michael Alarcon

Guitarist, Background Vocalist 

************************************************************************ 

Michael has been truly blessed growing up as an enthusiastic 70’s kid. There was an exciting musical explosion covering an array of classic music styles and artists that inspired him to pick up the guitar himself. 

"Thinking back now, it’s no wonder I played in the primary school orchestra as music has always been a part of me. Picking up the guitar in my early teens, granted me a great way to express myself musically." 

Now performing all across this great state of California, from So Cal’s Harbor area to the mountains and surrounding states. (not to mention all across LA, literally). Covering unique blends of influences, hence allowing these experiences to evolve him into a unique style of performing while embracing that groove… 

"With all that I’ve attained and put to practice, I’m now letting it go & letting it all out!" 

In Pursuit of The Groove!!!!!
