Champa 51 is a Venice Beach, CA duo that brings a diverse style of music -
a pure fusion of musical elements from trip-hop, electronica, funk, break-beats, dance music and soul - woven around the melodic song structure of alternative rock.
Andrea Blackbird, a cyber songstress, drops alluringly fluid lead vocals and rhythmic riffs while producer muliti-instrumentalist Marc Blackbird (M-bird) funks up his electronic programming and arranges groovy guitar hooks along with background vocals. Currently you can catch them with live percussion added to the mix.
Their danceable grooves have massaged souls through the Los Angeles underground scene to performances alongside some of the best-known U.S. West Coast's DJ's, Hip-Hop acts, live electronica acts and bands. Over the last few years the group has toured with and performed at a host of festivals, nightclubs, and events including: Burning Man, X-Games, Democratic National Convention 2000, Moontribe, Dream Circus, Green Galactic, Earthdance, Gathering of the Tribes, Solfest, and LA's Roxy and Knitting Factory.
