A multi-platinum selling and triple Finnish Grammy-winning act devoted to poly-stylistic adventurousness, with just four members who met in school, they claim to be the smallest big band in the world... DON JOHNSON BIG BAND (or DJBB) is one of those groups that exists somewhere high above the shackles of musical genres. You can call the music hip-hop, because the rapping catches your ear first. Keep listening, and you'll find jazz, dub, funk, electronic influences and even country. Just name it, and they've probably got it. The band has made what can only be called an amazing and unlikely journey – from selling their debut album out of their backpacks to topping the charts. Their albums have gone gold and platinum, and they've racked up numerous Finnish Grammy awards and other honors. All the while, they've managed to bring together hip-hop fans, hard-core metal heads, and soccer moms of all ages with their riveting and hugely successful live shows. They’ve also warmed up in Europe for the likes of Kanye West, James Brown, George Clinton, Jamiroquai, and Roxy Music. Right now the band is 100% in studio mode... creating their 6th LP to be released as soon as it's finished!
