Off The Cuff is a fully immersive live experience where the relationship between DJ and live musicians comes together seamlessly to create a unique sound never heard before. While the DJ curates the music, musicians merge within the track with improv to produce a live experience. Off The Cuff includes a DJ, vocalist, drums, keys, and sax creating a five-piece ensemble tailored to fit any event. This Chicago-based group powered by The DJ Firm is ready to rock any party from beginning to end!
