的HawtPlates (贾斯汀•希克斯, Kenita Miller-Hicks, 玉希克斯), with visual collaborator Breck Omar Brunson, are more a 表演 trio than a b和. The trio makes conceptual live vocal works by breaking down folk 和 vernacular musical forms 和 reconstituting them into other modes of 表演. There is a sense that their music is specific to them as a family, 和 that it can only be made by them. While they maintain that it is “soul music” to that which they are true, they employ highly improvisational means, as well as their own sagacious formulas, to concoct curatives to the symptoms 和 traumas of being working-class citizens in the modern world. 通过收集大量的景点, 理想, 人, 和地方, they produce potent tonics 和 “one pots” hearkening the spirit of the family heirloom recipe.

一起或单独, 的HawtPlates have served as muses of sorts to various artists such as Meshell Ndegeocello, 阿比盖尔德维尔, Kaneza Schaal, 夏洛特Brathwaite, 和 have collaborated with the likes of Ahrens 和 Flaherty, 海尔格戴维斯, Cauleen史密斯, Steffani Jemison, 雷吉·"雷格·洛克"·格雷和D乐队.R.E.A.M. 环, 林恩Nottage, Queen Esther 和 The Harlem Gospel Singers, 国家黑色剧院, 格斯里剧院, 公共剧场, 纽约表演空间, 布鲁斯韦伯, 还有公园大道军械库, 举几个例子.
