Paul & Christopher Cargnello are Skinny Bros, a production duo whose music consistently blends the two opposing forces of Grit and Grace. They specialize in making thick syrupy music that grooves, smacks, bumps, and thumps. 
 Paul Cargnello : "We were brought up on 60s music, but while Christopher gravitated to Smokey Robinson, I was basically trying to play guitar like Jimi Hendrix." 
 Christopher Cargnello : "We both became big hip hop fans in the 90s, but while Paul was absorbing the production of artists like Wu Tang and Beastie Boys, I would be transcribing the melodies in Digable Planets samples."
