City Council members ===Dwayne "Jubee" Webb=== Jubee was born in Brooklyn, New York and credits his upbringing in helping to shape and influence his style today. His mother, also a musician, was an avid supporter of her son’s talent and dreams of becoming a musician from an early age. When Jubee was four, Jubee lost his mother and his life took an unexpected and monumental turn. Without a father in the picture (who was absent from birth), Jubee was sent to live with various family members in the States of South Carolina, Florida and Georgia. During his early teenage years Jubee would travel back to Brooklyn, New York as much as he was able. While in the city, Jubee immersed himself in the Brooklyn hip-hop scene. After getting in trouble with Brooklyn Police (for reasons unknown) Jubee was sent to live with relatives in Augusta, Georgia. While there, Jubee spent most of his time surrounding himself with music and other musical artists that were apart of Augusta, Georgia Music Scene. Perry Valentyne Perry Valentyne was born in Middle Georgia and lived in and around Macon, Georgia his entire life. Valentyne proudly claims Macon, Georgia as his hometown and the inspiration behind his many musical creations. From a young age, Valentyne was engrossed in the local music scene, a scene in which he credits for providing and infusing his eclectic approach to his music. With the rise of the hip hop scene in Atlanta and Savannah, Valentyne quickly found himself absorbed in trying to understand the fundamental backbone that carries all good lyrical creations: the beat. Valentyne learned beat making programs and operations at a excelled pace, quickly making a name for himself on the leased beat market. Perry Valentyne has refined and polished his production skills that transform into a distinctive crossover vibe that is unparalleled in the music community today. History Pre-debut Jubee and Perry Valentyne met while working together in photography studio in the Mall of Macon, Georgia. During this time, both were able to work together almost at anytime during the day on trading and refining their music abilities, mostly due to the lack of customers who came to take studio pictures at their location. Eventually, Jubee and Perry Valentyne decided to team up under the name "The City Council". The duo quickly became a well known and well liked hip hop / rock music combination group on the Middle Georgia Live Performance Circuit. During this time, the group signed with a new Macon, Georgia Record Label began by Chris Horne named "Random Family Records". It was through Random Family Records that the duo was introduced to the members that would later become The Paper Street Band, City Council's back up band. Likewise, the duo began collaborating with Dan Zook (A/K/A Pappa Zook), a well known saxophone player in Macon, Georgia. Debut Alongside their three man full-performance ensemble, “The Paper Street Band,” The City Council Band has quickly climbed to the top of Macon’s musical hierarchy and is not showing signs of slowing down. They have showcased alongside bands such as: The Gym Class Heros, Floco Torres, Citizen Kane, Rollybots and countless other high profile acts across the south. As of late, The City Council Band has also gained a significant fan base and an air of notoriety: having been voted “Best Live Local Performance” at annual music festivals such as “Bragg Jam" and Mercer Universities]]
