J.R.C.G. is a band that knows how to bring the energy to their live performances. With a unique blend of percussion instruments like maracas, tambourines, and drums, the band creates a funky and jazzy sound that is sure to get the audience moving.

Whether their music feels itchy and claustrophobic or loose and free, one thing is for sure – listening to J.R.C.G. is like falling into a mix of poison ivy and wildflowers.
