Tampa Bay’s very own, Vinny Virgo, is definitely not confined to a certain box or genre. His unique sound is infused with a mixture of trap sounds & experimental idealistic waves that boast a fresh approach.
“My music is about expression of emotions as far as love and loneliness and just exploring your own mind and being confident and having a good time while you’re here in this lifetime.” – Vinny
