About Garth Trinidad & Mateo Senolia aka TRINIDADSENOLIA Trinidad is a modern day griot, award winning DJ, artist, culture critic, credited in part with shaping LA's modern music landscape, dubbed one of the world’s most influential DJs by press and peers. Through radio, events, music supervision, and journalism, he has introduced the world to such artists as Little Dragon and Janelle Monae, interviewed the likes of Quincy Jones and Yoko Ono, while maintaining his personal goal of being an alternative source for music discovery.

Look for the debut release by Trinidad-Senolia, Postcards From Strangers on Yoruba Records this summer. Senolia (pseudonym for novelist / screenwriter, Marcus J. Guillory) is a multi-disciplined artist whose music and writings reflect his storied life and passions. Partly self-taught in youth (drums, brass, guitar) and later trained under legendary percussionist Bill Summers (Headhunters, Los Calientes) during graduate studies at Tulane University in New Orleans, Senolia has worked with George Clinton, Iroko, The Meters, and Cyrille Neville et al, and led critically acclaimed latin fusion bands in NOLA and LA. He produces and writes for film and television, and has a multibook deal with Atria / Simon & Schuster. Senolia's recent endeavors in EDM music production, particularly the deep house he was first exposed to in early 90’s Philadelphia, enabled him to combine his two passions, music and writing, into a collaboration with Trinidad to create a genre called “Lit House”.
