Coming from such diverse places as South Africa, Ecuador, Cuba, Key West, Maryland, New York, and Virginia, the band brings many cultural influences together to produce music without boundaries.

The band’s rhythm section is made up of expert musicians, with a driving bass line that anchors each song and propels the audience to move. The percussion adds depth and texture to the sound, incorporating traditional rhythms and intricate beats that keep the audience engaged.

Music Road Co’s horn section is a standout feature, adding rich layers of melody and harmony that are both soulful and powerful. The guitar & keys are equally impressive, with electrifying solos and grooving rhythms that showcase the band’s versatility.

MRCO has opened for chart-topping Michael Franti & Spearhead at Rocky Mount’s Harvester Performance Center and for The Original Wailers at Roanoke’s Elmwood Park amphitheater. They regularly perform at regional venues, community gatherings and festivals, including Floydfest for several consecutive years.
