Tacoma’s Rockwell Powers and DJ Phinisey released a brief new track called “101”, an outtake from their most recent collaborative effort, Build. It’s a perfect companion piece to that record, Rockwell and Phin speaking truth to power in a hardcore fashion. Check out the duo’s live, in-studio performance of “Denial” and “101” on KEXP below.
KEXP made available the video of Kingdom Crumbs’ live, in-studio performance from September 14, 2013. Good vibes and synergy from the four man crew of Jerm, Tay Sean, Mikey Nice, and Jarv Dee.
