Just as the word Ludic describes, spontaneity and undirected playfulness perfectly represent how Ludic makes music. Based out of Vancouver, Canada, brothers Max and Rhett Cunningham and friend Ayla Tesler-Mabe make up Ludic. The trio has focused on crafting their timeless yet envelope-pushing style, fueled by their inspiration from the musical greats of the past and the present. Their love of pop, R&B, funk and soul shines through in their music. This year the trio joins the roster of talent that is a part of the First Up with RBCxMusic program. Ludic always aims to craft infectious grooves and songs while continuously pushing the limits of their own musicianship.
