John and Kelly Fumo are a husband and wife writing, producing and performing team. They have put

together an exciting band that features Kelly on vocals and John on trumpet, blending pop melodies and

mesmerizing horn compositions over deep grooves. Kelly's vocals stand out as clear, simple and pure.

As a lyricist, she wears her heart on her sleeve. Her songs reflect her desire for personal growth, and the

love for her family.

John plays trumpet like Miles Davis with a pop edge. His mood and improvisation

technique set him apart. A session man who backs many great artists such as J-Lo, Shakira, Brian

McKnight, Ricky Martin, Neil Young, k.d. lang, Brian Setzer, Whitney Houston and many others, he also

can be heard on numerous film and television soundtracks. They're backed by a four piece rhythm

section made up of some of LA's finest musicians. Together they're ready to take center stage and blow

your minds.
