THE WOOKIEZ

The Wookiez are the Canadian Beatbox Champion duo that hail from Vancouver, BC. They consist of beatbox artists CiMaX and Vino. Both initially met through a small group of beatboxers that is now a collective called the WCG (West Coast Groove). 

 

Their beatbox performance style is mainly influenced from Hip-hop and electronic roots while also challenging and expanding their soundset across many experimental genres. 

 

Individually, Vino continues to push himself and the Canadian Beatbox scene by competing in beatbox competitions around the world, showing that Canadian beatboxing is always at the top of the competition scene. 

 

CiMaX is the founder of the WCG and organizes beatboxing events across the lower mainland. He advocates in creating a new culture of beatboxing in Vancouver and recommends everyone to give the art form a try as it is physically accessible to everyone at all times.

 

The Wookiez continue to redefine modern beatboxing throughout the city and have performed at various events across the lower mainland and Canada such as the Chilliwack Mural Festival, Surrey Party for the Planet, Music Heals Foundation at the Commodore Ballroom, Surrey Canada Day, and more!
