Lando Chill

Tucson, Arizona resident Lando Chill makes music which is classified as hip-hop, but isn't tethered to a single genre, encompassing elements of funk, gospel, jazz, indie rock, and folk. Bringing to mind groups like Spearhead and the Roots, he records and performs with a live band, which includes Chris Pierce (bass), Lasso (keyboards/guitars/sampler), and Jimmy Borquez (drums/guitars).
