Knowmads is a hip-hop duo based in Seattle, Washington, comprised of Tom Pepe and Tom Wilson. Emerging in the Pacific Northwest's vibrant music scene, the two artists have been collaborating since their high school days. Together, they’ve carved a niche for themselves with their earnest and reflective lyricism, often musing on personal growth, societal issues, and philosophical introspection. Their sound is an amalgamation of laid-back, jazz-infused beats, sometimes reminiscent of the early 2000s underground rap, intertwined with the modern sensibilities of conscious hip-hop.

The duo's discography boasts a collection of tracks that resonate with listeners who favor introspection and substance in their music. In more recent times, songs like "Imperfect" and "Only Human" highlight themes of self-acceptance and the shared flaws that connect us all. Meanwhile, tracks such as "Stardust" and "Into The Sunset" evoke a sense of nostalgia and reflection. With each release, Knowmads continue to build upon their reputation for delivering thought-provoking lyrics atop soulful, head-nodding instrumentals. Their music has not only established them with a dedicated fanbase but also as noteworthy storytellers within the indie hip-hop sphere.
