After our meeting I set out to find a local band. Durham has a huge music scene, something that I overlooked once I came back from New York. I went to Reverbnation, a popular online tool for music artists that is based out of North Carolina. I found this band called The Beast that is based out of Durham. The band is a hip-hop/jazz fusion and emulated what I was looking for. I reached out to them and within the hour they were locked in.
