THE J-UNIT BAND

Welcome to the Junit Band! Since 2010 and like many start-up bands, they began perfecting our musical skills playing in bars and restaurants around Houston. A group of multicultural seasoned musicians, J-Unit brings a blend of the Caribbean experience of energy and excitement in music, songs, and dances from many genres. And their live stage performance…infectious!

The group begin with their original concept to promote and preserve the arts, culture and heritage of Caribbean while living in the Diaspora. They incorporate a unique blend of soulful vocals, intoxicating rhythms, and fascinating renditions of popular songs with a Caribbean twist, calypso-inspired melodies, and over a fusion of reggae, zouk, soca, dancehall and afro-beats.

The band consists of six members: Marc (Binjammin) Benjamin on drums, Nathan (Melody) Norde on keyboard and drum programming, Wilfred (Wacki) Clarke on drums, and Edwin (OG) Vanterpool on bass guitar). Gavin (Mr. G.) Claxton takes the lead vocals.

The J-Unit Band has worked tirelessly to cement their place in the Caribbean music landscape in Houston. They continue to be the trendsetters in the musical world of the Houston Caribbean Community.
