Nashville-based duo Cassio Monroe mix electronic dance music, rap, and singer/songwriter pop into their hybrid, party-ready sound. Formed in 2011, Cassio Monroe feature the talents of singer/songwriter Jeff Garrison and rapper Tripp Weir. The duo originally met after Garrison, who moved to Nashville from Michigan in 2009, appeared on a comedic online interview show for which Weir was the cameraman. A few months later, Cassio Monroe had already written and recorded several songs, including "Shake That," which hit number six on the Billboard Dance Chart in 2013. ~ Matt Collar
