History

[edit]

Wilhelm Becker and Kris Becker are father and son. They were born in Berlin. Modern times hippies and musicians. Their music is a blend of jazz, blues and funk influences.

Recently they moved to London and became street musicians. Playing in the center of London. Trafalgar Square, Piccadilly Circus, Hyde Park.

Phillipa Kovalenko was born in Ukraine. Daughter of a jazz player, she started playing the saxophone at age twelve. Even at that age, her beauty was evident. So she started working as a child model for local advertising. At the age of twenty three she was offered a contract as a model in London. So she made it her place of residence.

One day she saw Wilhelm and Kris playing in Hyde Park. She loved their music. And told them she played the saxophone. They met days later. She shared with them some of her music recordings. And they all three played together for the first time. They invited her to play with them in the streets. They integrated straight away. So they decided to record an album together with whatever means they had. They needed a bass player and a drummer. So they they looked for them in social media. That’s when Latoyo Duboi and Oyuki Lee come in.

They finished their first album Funk, Blues & Grooves And uploaded it in YouTube and music platforms. They keep working together. Growing as a group and individually.
