The project is led by Brendan Kinley, who performs under the stage name Brendan Grey,[1] fronting an eight-piece band of both local and international musicians whose music blends jazz and rhythm and blues.[3]

In addition to their Polaris Prize nomination, the band were nominated for Best Rap/Hip Hop Group at the Western Canadian Music Awards in 2020.[4]
