Delivering soul-wrenching riffs and heavy bass lines with catchy choruses, A.D.U.C. draws its audience in with amorous performances every time they hit the stage. Their original material, laced with their takes on some of your favorite songs, puts them in a stratosphere far removed from your everyday hip hop band. Ayo Dot & The Uppercuts hit the scene in 2012 and have opened for Sir Mix-A-Lot, Zion I, Blackalicious, Nappy Roots, and more.
