Wil B and Kev Marcus are two classically trained violinists who worked as ‘studio rats’ in the hip-hop studios of South Florida. This fortuitous combination lead to their groundbreaking collaboration, which has earned them national attention. In 2013, they were named one of the Top Five New Bands at the prestigious and forward-thinking South by Southwest (SXSW) Music and Media Conference.
