Super-fly rap duo Pigeon John and Flynn Adam display an almost nerdy appreciation for pop culture and dance beats evident in their music. Hailing from Los Angeles and formerly part of L.A. Symphony, the two spread their time over various other side projects, however Rootbeer is their love-child, with the one EP Pink Limousine to date. With hints of classic soul influences and electronic beats, their music will hook you in, but it's their charismatic on-stage performances that will have you dancing and smiling with them. Hit it up with Rootbeer tonight at the Slidebar along with Totally Totally, MC Prototype and Cookbook.
