It's A Whole ‘Nutha Thing for Eddie Levert, Walter Williams, and Sammy
Strain-who together make up THE O'J AYS, a threesome who over the
course of a quarter of a century, has consistently made music that is
fresh, innovative, and passionate. It is that idiosyncratic O'J AYS sound,
the sultry, gut-wrenching and sheer power of Edie Levert and Walter
Williams; vocals, coupled with the ability to grow, change, and mature
with the times, which has given THE O’J AYS the legendary status which
they fully deserve.
With a brand new EMI album titled IT'S A WHOLE ‘NUTHA THING due
out in January, THE O'J AYS are warming up with a few select shows
across the country to preview some of the new material, and also
rehearse some classic O’J AYS.
