(S)He

Big Barn Records, an independent label in Philadelphia, announces the debut of their featured artist (S)HE and the release of their first full length album Animal. Imagine Al Green, Jimi Hendrix, Biggie, Prince and George Clinton with three female vocalists and you have (S)HE. The group—Andrea Scruggs, Sophia Johnson and Nat'e McNair, Vocals, plus Matt Tuttle, lead guitar and Tom Laskas, bass—combines multiple genres and modern and classical influences to create a sound that is fresh and socially aware.
Seredipity led "Drea", Sophia and Nat'e, who had been singing together for eight years, to Tom and Matt who happened to hear the girls singing together on that fatefilled night at a downtown club. Musical muses being what they are, and sometimes it's a struggle, connected the talented, versatile musicians and Big Barn proposed collaboration. The Band united under the original name (S)HE and signed, soon after, to Big Barn Records.
(S)He is a combination of some of Philly's most in-demand performers.
After working with many other artists and various collaborations, thegroup has come together to form their own project. All of the members of (S)He have toured extensively, and a tour for the group is currently being scheduled for the fall.

...and many more. (S)He has found immediate success in the
