Recapturing the essence of musicality, Weapons of Mass Creation stuns with socially attuned themes draped in genre-melding instrumentation, warm vocals, and Afro-Latino rhythms. Brimming with live saxophone, synths, keyboards, and guitars, the independent family unit’s arrangements meander into the sonic realms of Soul, Cumbia, and R&B. WOMC’s work is an amalgamation of evocative chronicling and smoothed-out musicianship for the ages.
Initially slated as a hip-hop group, the six Franco siblings — Joules (emcee/vocals), Luis (guitar/vocals), Jacob (bass/vocals), Crudo (keyboardist/producer), Moe Budda (drums/emcee/producer), Silas (saxophone/vocals) — joined forces with the Quiñonez brothers — Soli (emcee) and EQ (emcee) — and newcomer Hiiku (synths/producer). They collectively embraced the name "Weapons of Mass Creation," a phrase Jacob used in a poem that highlighted creativity as a weapon to dismantle colonialism.
Garnering editorial nods from esteemed outlets KCET and The LA Times, the group has gained traction gracing stages with seasoned acts like SZA, Smino, Aloe Blacc, DāM-Funk, and DJ Battlecat. WOMC also headlined the Hit The Switches festival (2022), performed at Tropicália (2018), and sold out a string of concerts during their inaugural West Coast Tour.
