The Greyboy Allstars are a jazz band who released their fourth album, Inland Emperor, in 2013.

The band came together in 1994, when the individual members were asked to perform at a record release party for the landmark acid jazz and club staple “Freestylin” by San Diego’s DJ Greyboy, who was famous for spinning `70s soul and funk. They enjoyed playing together that they decided to continue on as a band. The Greyboy Allstars starting playing weekly at San Diego’s now defunct Green Circle, weekends at San Francisco’s Elbo Room and various clubs throughout Europe. By playing danceable boogaloo music within the soul jazz genre, they became a national and international phenomenon.
