OurStage artists Pat G. and Lorenzo Marshall are ‘the men’ … or whatever your plural of ‘the MAN’ is. They call themselves “Trouble City” and they are smart, motivated, cute and charming as nobody’s business… so look out ladies, they could be ‘trouble’ on your heart as well! The cool thing about this whole prize was that John really took his time with the guys and gave them some killer advice. It will be interesting to see where these guys take their music from here.

Inside scoop on the video/ artists:

1.) All the beats in the background of the video were mixed by either Pat or Lorenzo.

2.) Pat and Lorenzo had actually recorded some songs in the studio where John held the mentor session (talk about guys with taste).

3.) The traffic was so bad getting into New York that the OurStage crew and Trouble City had no time to stop for lunch. So, by 5:30pm – when the interview ended – the whole group of us rushed to the nearest burger joint (where we continued to gush about how cool the mentor session was).

4.) The first thing John talked about when he sat down was football! The boys said they were from Boston and he looked at them both and said, “Patriots huh?” … funny guy that John Legend. Sigh … you can win a mentor session but you can’t win em all.

PLUG is a HUGE name in the indie music scene! These guys have exposed some of the hottest up and coming musicians on the scene … from RJD2 to Tokyo Police Club to Silversun Pickups … I mean you name it, they knew it (before you did). So we got Jaylyn and her husband, Ben, the opening gigs for the PLUG Miami City Highlights tour… pretty sweet huh?
These kids are cool, modest and incredibly talented. Check out their songs & profiles below and join their fan clubs to give them some love and support.
