Jambaloo: Cure For Paranoia We Them Grays, Coach Tev, Yo Cisco Kidd

CURE FOR PARANOIA is the powerhouse Dallas/Fort Worth-based collective of hip hop, jazz, and funk musicians founded by artist, performer, and songwriter CAMERON MCCLOUD. After releasing his debut project “2nd First Impression” in 2014 with Grammy-winning producer J. RHODES, McCloud was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, finding the best therapy for his condition in the form of collaboration and live performance. Cure for Paranoia is a Cameron McCloud project featuring Tomahawk Jonez & Jay Analog. Thus, CURE FOR PARANOIA was born.

CAMERON MCCLOUD’s dynamic R&B songwriting and clever rap lyricism are the centrifugal force of CURE FOR PARANOIA’s critically acclaimed full-band live show. The performance creates a lush sonic landscape around McCloud’s compositions with drums, keys, and horns featuring Dallas’ own WE THEM GRAYS. Their revered live performance has brought CURE FOR PARANOIA to stages like The Hollywood Bowl, South By Southwest, and the NPR Tiny Desk Concert Tour (as two-time finalists of the worldwide NPR Tiny Desk Contest).

On THE INSTITUTE-produced “Love (Again)”, cascading Prince-tinged synths and bright horn riffs build CAMERON MCCLOUD up to a soaring falsetto hook to explore the inevitable ups-and-downs that love brings. The dreamy low-fi echoing bells of “Ex and the City” are a cheeky juxtaposition with the song’s snide jabs at a former lover. And the infectious snare-popping trance beat of single “CPT” cannot be contained when McCloud’s cocky stunt-anthem proclaims, “Binge watch me lil bitch, if you want to know how it’s done / By day we serve tables, by night we serve cunt”.

CURE FOR PARANOIA’s singular sound in the alternative hip hop genre by bending the components of live instrumentation and dance music into the classic sensibilities of rap, R&B, funk, and jazz. Though largely influenced by millennial heavyweights like Andre 3000, Lauryn Hill, and Kendrick Lamar – CAMERON MCCLOUD has an undeniable knack for pop songwriting that has garnered a connection to fans seeking a catharsis themselves, making CURE FOR PARANOIA a sonic tonic for the human condition.
