Self described as “World Funk Fusion”, the band combines Funk, Reggae, Jazz, and Afro-Cuban while still exploring the future. With their innovative spirit and drive, Makia Groove achieves a shapeless identity with unprecedented originality and diversity.
The overall vibe of Makia Groove is generated by intense collaboration efforts, where each of the member’s contributions come together to make the sound and essence of Makia Groove unlimited in viewpoints and directions.
