Grammy-nominated renaissance man Mayer Hawthorne and Grammy-nominated producer Jake One (Drake, Snoop Dogg, Fun.) team up to release their self-titled debut album 'Tuxedo,' on Stones Throw Records via Inertia.

Tuxedo is Mayer Hawthorne (Aquarius) and Jake One (Taurus). They are descendants of the one-word moniker family of funk, where you will find such groups as Chic, Shalamar and Zapp. Tuxedo emerged last year with three tracks of smooth, synth-heavy disco funk accompanied by no information about the group except a greeting – "Tuxedo is here! Stay classy."

Multi-platinum recording artist Pitbull loved the tracks so much he used one of them on his album 'Global Warming: Meltdown'.

The duo is excited to release the upcoming album on Stones Throw Records, which also marks Mayer's return to the label since the release of his debut 'A Strange Arrangement' in 2009.
