As an artist who is on the Autism Spectrum, Lead Singer and Songwriter, Xolie Morra is an open book and lends themself as an active and available representative of the Autism community. As well as being an out and loud member of the LGBTQ/Intersex community to raise awareness about diversity, equality and acceptance of all people.
The band has released multiple singles, mixing Xolie's edgy vocals and moving melodic compositions with Intense Epic Rock production in it's purest form. Their album "The Great Social Experiment", is a deep look into the human experience and this experiment we call life..
From small intimate shows to larger stages opening for national acts, this band has put in the time and it shows in their performance. And through grass roots marketing, hard work, dedication, ambition and pure passion for what they do, they have pushed their way past boundaries to inspire other artists with disabilities to do what they love.
