Their high energy, ultra positive live show has rocked stages across the US, Canada, India, & Australia, and mixes deft, inspiring wordplay and storytelling with lush three part harmonies and crowd interaction, all over a bed of funk, hip-hop, soul, and pirate shanties. Performing with THE SECRET AGENCY, the breakers of the DANCING ON AIR Bboy crew bring Olympic level acrobatics that perfectly compliment the musical fireworks.
