Capital

Brought together by their mutual appreciation for and scholarly knowledge of the Nordic sound, the three young and arguably talented gadabouts who comprise Capital, pronounced similar to the last name of the original lead singer from the 1960's band the Small Faces, mean to bring the funk and the soul back into the ivory tower. The Columbia-attending threesome share a unique passion for the music of the reverends J Dilla, Michael McDonald, Bilal, and Brad Mehldau, as well as the fabulous learn-to-type programs taught by Mavis Beacon. Described as "borderline offensive" and "decidedly lacking in contrapuntal motivic development" by friend Rosario Dawson, this proverbial barrel of three monkeys lives by the time tested aphorism, first spoken by Sir Ernest Shackleton himself, "Bitch I can turn a crack rock into a mountain."
