biographical info

Stealing thunder so you move that ass, the duo dubbed Thunderheist unleash serious electrocrunk boom bap. Ribcage rattling bass breaks laced with clever rhyming flip with everything from 80s classics to digital booty bass and slowed down Southern bounce.

Dancefloors get loose when Thunderheist reigns. Tunes like "Bubblegum" and "Suenos Dulces" gather love in cheers and people losing it to the sounds. Lots of dancing. Watch this go down at a live show and it�s even wilder. Music blogs light up with repostings the moment they post a new tune. DJs from all over the world drop them in the mix. Simply put, they get lotsa love.

The lady runs the mic, and her name is Isis. This emcee is a Nigerian-born, Canadian-raised phenom who has shared stages with hip hop heavyweights and even played "Show Time at the Apollo". Hard-hitting rhythms are courtesy of Grahmzilla, highly versatile producer /DJ twistIng up the low end, on the beats and in the mix.

With the Thunderheist self-released EP, an upcoming 12" on Bigfoot Records (Smalltown DJs), live gigs on the Left Coast, Scandinavian tour, busy Canadian touring, NYC debut, more touring anticipated and work on the album, it's going to be fun and hectic.

Chances are you, too, will be getting down to Thunderheist before too long.
