Bio
The Trained To Go Band grew from Ward 8 Entertainment, a musical collective with a focus on positive messaging which has been awarded for its musical contributions to environmental documentaries in collaboration with Earth Conservation Corps.
Over the past couple years, musicians including previous members of GoGo pioneer bands such as Experience Unlimited and Petworth were added to the mix leading to a blend of lyrical Hip Hop, R&B vocals, musicianship, and GoGo pockets and sockets resulting in the beautiful sexy crank sounds of the Trained To Go Band.
