Gemini Soul will be performing 2 shows of their eclectic blend of nu-jazz/funk/fusion at the Hedley Club Lounge located at Hotel De Anza; May 16th @ 8:30 pm and 10:30 pm; Free Admission. Gemini Soul's performances have been compared to the pop funk jazz fusion of Herbie Hancock and Miles Davis and the funkiness of Marcus Miller and Stanley Clarke.

Dark Skin Babies : The Movement features a two CD set, which contains 20 tracks of non-stoppable experimental jazz funk-fusion at its best. This marks as Gemini Soul's fifth album and their most political and social conscience collection to date. "Dark Skin Babies : The Movement" is the follow-up to their 2008 release "The Nefertiti Xperience."
