A singer songwriter & producer from the UK now based in Los Angeles is stepping out from behind the scenes to perform songs in person. His preferred style, a blend of Classic Piano Pop with a hint of Blue Eyed Soul and Southern Rock thrown in, will be the prominent theme for his first solo album.

The first single “Thank You Mr Elton John” is a warm and heartfelt tribute to one of the greatest songwriters that has ever lived, it also mentions many legends who have passed.

Slab City is the brainchild of Marco Thomas and Ryan Titmus. The music is a fusion of Rap, Trap and Dubstep; but not wanting to follow norms of their previous project they decided to create a fictional web series and comic book and have the music created by the project intertwined with the story.

The story is set in the oppressive urban waste land of Koda City, ruled by Mafia Boss, El Don. This is the first guest we've had that is using multiple mediums to promote their music. We had a great conversation about how they conceived and executed on this unique idea.
