About
When was the last time you witnessed strings, horns, woodwinds and a pianist at a Hip-Hop concert? Add to that a Fierce soul songstress, a party rocking DJ, a fire breathing MC and that is still but a fraction of what youll get when you catch Thee Phantom & the Illharmonic Orchestra in action. Fronted by husband and wife duo, Phantom & Phoenix, The Illharmonic combines the raw energy and passion of Hip-Hop with the beautiful sounds of live orchestral accompaniment. Phantom wrote his first rhyme at the age of 8 and made his first beat by mixing the instrumental from the Beastie Boys Paul Revere with Beethovens Fifth Symphony at age 13. In 2001, the ensemble became the first Hip-Hop group to perform at Philadelphias Kimmel Center where they were accompanied by members of The Philadelphia Orchestra & Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia. In 2015, The Illharmonic became only the third Hip-Hop group to headline their own event at the world-famous Carnegie Hall. The Illharmonic has since sold out the Kennedy Center, performed with 40 and 50 piece ensembles and toured the United States and Japan.

'....probably the finest example of the primitive, greasy, honkytonkin rumble that became not only the definitive musical expression of the Clyde Delta area, on Scotlands west coast, but defined its outlook and way of life - the forgotten and long rotten corpses of the Clyde Delta bluesmen live on in Thee Phantom Herd.....' '...Thee Phantom Herd spit fire at you with this song. You can tell they are the kind of guys that wear aviation fuel for aftershave as it makes smoking so much more of a gamble.....'
