US funk/soul band formed at North Carolina Central University in the mid-1970s. Jazz trumpeter and NCCU professor of music Donald Byrd agreed to manage and produce the group. Through Byrd’s connections, the band secured a recording deal with the national label United Artists. Several members previously worked with bands in Durham, Asheville, and Chapel Hill.
