AT LAST

AT LAST was formed in early 2000 after an extensive nationwide search. The latest incarnation features three original members (Justin Fong, JP Leynes, Ken Ycmat), and two new members (Mike Lee, Hans Cho). One of the goals of forming AT LAST was to help to unity the many diverse cultures of Asian Americans. The members are very proud of their Asian American heritage, and all are bilingual. Their ethnic backgrounds include Chinese, Filipino, Korean, and Japanese.

The response to the group and their music has been overwhelming, and they continue to win over audiences, young and old, across the country and abroad. In the short time that the group has been together, AT LAST has been featured on ABC, CBS, and NBC new in Los Angeles, and has performed on noted shows such as "It's Showtime At the Apollo" and Ed McMahon's Star Search follow-up, "Next Big Star." In addition, the group has had the honor of singing "Star-Spangled Banner" & "America the Beautiful" for the Los Angeles Lakers, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the 17th Annual AIDS Walk Los Angeles.

The group's sound is rooted in rock/r&b/pop with a little bit of funk and hip-hop. They also infuse Asian-flavored sounds such as taiko drums and the erhu to create a new brand of pop music. All of the songs are written, composed, and arranged by the members of AT LAST.

There have been many assumptions made about the band's name AT LAST. But the name is taken from Dr. Marin Luther King's famous proclamation, "Free at last!" http://www.innovazian.com/
