Geoff Gallegos (Double G) is a musician and composer whose work spans genres, from classical to hip hop. Trained in jazz composition at the Berklee College of Music, he has been working professionally since the age of 15 with a diverse group of artists from the Colorado Symphony Orchestra to Three Dog Night and George Clinton. In 1999 Gallegos founded the Dakah Hip Hop Orchestra, a 70-member symphonic group that brings together such disparate instruments and genres as Indian sitar and tables, violins, cellos, woodwinds and brass with rappers and turntables. Dakah released its first CD recording in September 2002.
