Side FX offers an alternative sound that is all their own -- a smooth blend of pop, jazz, country, and rock, with sometimes even a few riffs of middle-eastern wind instrumentation woven in. "More than Just Music" is the motto the band lives by exploring new sounds and combining rhythms and beats that together offer the unexpected. Combining a fresh genre-shifting sound with inspired lyrics, the band lets loose with sultry lead singer Kim Cameron's "get up and dance" spirit.  They have played for the Marines, Airmen and Sailors, Milbloggers, and Autism.
