[edit] Biography

Tourie and Damien studied at the Juilliard School and Bloomingdale School of Music and have taken their mastered skills to startling heights including the world famous Apollo Theater, Jay Leno Show, The Tavis Smiley Show, and Ellen Show just to name a few. They also had a brief cameo in the movie Step Up.

Growing up in the inner city, Damien was the first to take up the violin at the ripe young age of eight. His passion for the sound was all the inspiration his older sibling Tourie needed. Their combined uniqueness and brilliance, along with support from a close family, makes it easy for N.B.S. to push the envelope on their style and further mold themselves into future stars. The uproar building around N.B.S. started underground in Manhattan and their debut album Struggle From The Subway To The Charts hit stores every where on October 3rd, 2006, stage show are also greatly anticipated by the masses who are bridging the gap between popular and classical genres.

On Jan. 8, 2006, the Escobars performed their song "Thunder" at the debut of the redesigned Cadillac CTS at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Nuttin' But Stringz performed after a classical string quartet. General Motors Corp. executives said Nuttin' But Stringz shows that what used to be good enough (the quartet) needs to be reinvigorated (N.B.S). A video for "Thunder" is also featured on the website for Jack's Big Music Show on Noggin.

In March of 2007, NBS has their music featured in 2007 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament (also known as March Madness) Highlights on College Sports TV (owned CBS), featuring a variation on their hit song "Thunder."
