Original show description below.
“Propelled forward by a horn-driven focus on explosive, imaginative, and genre-defying compositions” (PopMatters), this well-oiled all-star funk machine co-led by Jon Batiste and Stay Human trumpeter Jon Lampley, saxophonist Dan White, and trombonist Chris Ott counts alumni of Snarky Puppy, Stevie Wonder, Ed Sheeran, Gary Clark Jr., and Umphrey’s McGee among its members. Originally formed by the former Ohio State University students and now based in Brooklyn, the band has brought their rip-roaring blend of jazz, funk, rock, and soul around the world, touring North and South America, Europe and Africa while absorbing global influences from their travels that have further informed their compositional approaches.
Thriving on unpredictability and a diverse range of expression in their live performances, the group shifts from a dynamic six-piece ensemble to a trio featuring saxophone, sousaphone, and beat-boxing, keeping their listeners’ eyes and ears open at every turn.
Their latest album, Time to Play, was co-produced by Stay Human guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Louis Cato.
