Canberra Dragon started as a trio with MC Mysterious Number 13 on vocals, MC Seeka beatboxing and King James (Kerneels Korst) on drums. The three knew each other from high school. The band gradualy grew to become the 53-peice they are today. The name originated from the groups home town and MC Mysterious Number 13's favourite football team. They cite Australian hip-hop groups The Herd, Hilltop Hoods and Bliss 'n' Eso as their main influences.
