The Trinity Band (aka TTB) is a five piece musical group founded in 2004 from Derby, England.

[1] The Trinity Band formed in 2004[4] after cousins James and Craig Dawkins met founding member and rapper Obe Watson (nicknamed Rukus) at a musical church workshop he was facilitating.

His cousin James plays drums, and prior to joining The Trinity Band he completed a BTEC National Diploma in Music Technology.

By 15 he was pursuing vocal training and was performing under the alias D. Wizzy as part of the musical duo Double V with his friend Graham Taylor.

He later played keys in his late teens, began writing and producing, and formed the band No Limits, which released the underground soul single "Missing You."

[6] Rukus began as a professional DJ and producer from Birmingham, first breaking into the scene by hosting his own weekly mix show.

[6] In 2006 BBC Radio 1Xtra came to Derby to record The Trinity Band performing at Rukus' Originality Stands Alone launch party, giving the live footage a full two-hour broadcast.

At the final concert at Indig02[8] The Trinity Band performed their own original song "Supanova" and a cover of "Champion" by Chris Brown and Chipmunk.

[9][10] Judges included Tom Deacon, Michael King of BGM Music, Chris Grayston, Bez from Happy Mondays, Alex Baker from Kerrang!
