KnowMads grew up in Seattle and have been making music there for the past 7 years. Tom "Pepe" and Tom "Cheef" Wilson are the MC's and "Jester" Judd makes the beats. At age 22, the KnowMads have independently released 6 albums and 3 mixtapes, performed in over 200 shows, shared the stage with the likes of Nappy Roots, Andre Nickatina, Blue Scholars, Macklemore, OneBeLo and Zion I, as well as built a strong independent following that is rapidly expanding out of the Pacific NW to diehard global audiences who support and represent the KnowMadicFamily. Look out for the KMF album in 2013... Pepe/Cheef/Chev/Loon/Camila Recchio/Jester
