Oz Corporation is an original formation, From Montpellier, south of France, playing acoustic urban music, halfway between rock and hip-hop - allowing even some lyrical forays! Composed of three members, with diverse and complementary musical influences (from jazz, groove and HH), the group is divided between a beatboxer / singer / MC, singer / guitarist / MC and guitarist / bassist. The specificity of the squad is that it provides compositions including all instrumentals, samples, beats, scratches, are made acoustically, vocally, live and without pre-recorded sound. Original compositions populate their creations, the performative dimension appears perhaps even more effectively on live.
