Born in Barbados, Kavione Griffith (aka KG SuperStar) brings the rhythmic and vibrant pulse of the Caribbean to everything he touches. After moving to New York as a teenager, he was exposed to many of the music industry's finest musicians and performers. These influences shine through his production, vocal abilities and diverse DJ sets. A well-traveled and extremely gifted Master of Ceremonies, KG has an extraordinary ability to connect with people from all walks of life and takes live performance experiences to another level. So it should be of no surprise that he’s known, globally, as “The Voice of a Great Time”. He currently holds residencies around Los Angeles including his latest curation “Utopia”, a unique open-air experience at Mama Shelter in Hollywood.

Nico Craig (he/they) is an influencer, DJ and music producer who already boasts an impressive résumé at just 19 years old. In addition to serving as one of the Human Rights Campaign Youth Ambassadors, Nico's musical journey consists of being a principal mixer at iHeart Radio’s REAL 92.3 FM in Los Angeles, playing international gigs in Ibiza, Nice and Montecarlo and being recognized by the Grammy Recording Academy for his 2020 EP. Nico is also an outspoken activist, especially for the Trans and Gender Non-Conforming community and is a reflection of how important inclusivity is in the music and entertainment industries.

Very few artists know how to leave a positive impression in both the mainstream and underground music communities. And Kendrick “Drack” Muse is one of those few International DJs who answers the call with authenticity. While in college, he built his brand creating a legendary “invitation only” hip hop night that was far from pretentious, yet exclusive, and almost always sold out each week. This led to a career in radio, then to a career at Universal Music Group in Los Angeles which shaped him into a well-rounded leader in the music business. He has performed at countless high-profile events around the globe from Los Angeles to Tulum to Amsterdam. This includes Essence Fest, Mi Casa Holiday, Amsterdam Dance Event, NBA All Star, and Super Bowl Weekend events as well as opening for a range of iconic artists like Prince, Stevie Wonder, DMX, Patti Labelle, Bernie Mack and too many more to list. He is also a co-founder and Creative Director at SOULNIC and Extra Mild Sauce.

Most of Hollywood knows Dorian Missick as a rising, prolific actor from series such as ABC’s “For Life” to Netflix’s “Luke Cage'' and ''Monster”. But the streets know him as DJ Tailwind Turner, a passionate connoisseur of Soul & House music. Tailwind has quite a storied career in music which is actually rooted in Hip Hop. Having graced stages alongside hip hop legends like Notorious B.I.G, A Tribe Called Quest and Brand Nubian, rocking large crowds has become second nature to him. In addition to being an official SOULNIC DJ, Tailwind has performed at several key events from “Soul In The Horn'' in NYC to “Kiss-N-Grind” in LA. He also held several DJ residencies including “Stone Groove '' at the legendary Zanibar and his current residency at the longest-running soul night in Hollywood, “Cherry Poppin'' at The Room.
