BIO
Based in Tallahassee, FL
Founded in 2016
Genre: R&B Funk/Fusion
​
Ecology was founded in the fertile music scene of Tallahassee, Florida in 2016, and in their short time together have gained notoriety as a dynamic, multi-dimensional band that explores modern music through group improvisation.
Channelling sonic influences from Jazz, Soul, Funk, Hip-hop, R&B, and World Music traditions, the band embodies universal groove with pop sensibility, the improvisational and exploratory spirit of jazz-fusion, and a love for defying expectations and bringing people together.
Ecology made their debut music festival performance at Suwannee Hulaween 2017 closing out the Thursday night pre-party after shows by Nth Power, Lettuce, and Umphrey's McGee and was shouted out by Music Fest News' Editor-In-Chief Scott Hopkins, referring to the performance as: "Perfect. My favorite set of the day."
The band is currently recording their debut record in Tallahassee, Florida and will make their first regional tour in Summer of 2018 through the Southeast US.
