Formed in the late 90s by Ahmad, whose 1994 single "Back In The Day" thrust him into hip-hop’s elite, 4th Avenue Jones’ was an alternative Hiphop band who avoid trite commentary on violence and drugs. Instead, the group uses its music to spread a message of empowerment, as vocalists Ahmad, Tena Jones and Jabu (vocals) flow flawlessly over the always-strong instrumentation supplied by Tim Shakes (guitar), Phat Albert (bass), Drummy Dave (drums), and Gailybird (violin).
These are photos from concerts where 4th Avenue Jones played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
