Bio

Take a few members of the Opensouls, add some of the One Million Dollars, Solaa crew and you've got The Tornadoes... then let Tyra Hammond kick it home. Perfect.

We started this crazy ride in mid-2005 as a way to unwind while the Opensouls album was being mixed. First live shows were at The Rising Sun and our limited edition vinyl releases have been picked up around the globe. And now we love it... and we're going to keep bringing the heat.

We're now working on some more material with plans to release an EP - vinyl, of course!
