The Oreoz is a fun, dynamic and eclectic, top 40-pop-band unit, comprised of, mainly, 4 core, music professionals, who are highly proficient in their individual roles, and highly entertaining as a team.
The unit can range in size, building around the core, depending on the client's needs. We have recently shared the stage and or collaborated with:
Choclair, K-os, Swifty (D12)
Yes, you guessed it: the name Oreoz is a play on our disposition, but more than this, it is our fun way, as a unit, to celebrate Diversity, Love & Freedom through Music
