On the heels of their recent 'Damn Dirty' Live EP release, self-proclaimed 'funk-blast warriors' The Great Apes continue to solidify their place in NYC as a beacon for all inter-borough hip shakers. In June they were awarded the 'Audience Choice' award at WNYC's 2012 Battle of the Boroughs after delivering a fierce performance repping Queens County. Throughout the year the band's live show remains a tremendous strength in their repertoire. The combination of J.Trom's soul-man howl with the group's electro-funk force consistently electrifies fans. "Obviously, your music has an emotional impact," declared radio host Terrance McKnight to a roaring crowd at the band's WNYC appearance. That emotional impact comes in large part from The Great Apes' ability to marry the soul of the past to the raging pulse of today, sending their vibrations far off into the future.
