Michigan Arts Showcase
The Sista Otis sound was born in Detroit, could only be born in
Detroit. As the Story goes, in a lil' Jazz club downtown after
hours... a few drinks and clouds of reefer hangin' in the air... Lady
Blues was feeling the Soul from Motown, so she Hip-Hopped up on
Motown's lap, Rocked back and forth and got the Funk on. Meanwhile,
Folk wondered in off the streets with crazy hair and dark shades and
wrote the story down. On that night, Sista Otis and the Wholly Rollers
were conceived.
