Об исполнителе:
Re-energizing the groove era's glory days, this knockout band answers the question "whatever happened to good music?" Brand new funk and soul with a solid foothold in the schools of Earth, Wind & Fire, Tower of Power, P-funk and Chic burn throughout their self-titled LP "Live Funk Nouveau." For anyone who misses the big, funky sounds of this seemingly bygone era, but still appreciates the new flavors of neo-soul and electro-funk, Live Funk Nouveau has arrived with brand new original music to celebrate and perpetuate the soulful promise of the groove's glory days. The band was started by keyboardist and composer Chris Fischer after deciding it was time to put in stone some of the experimental grooves that would slip through the cracks at gigs "in the trenches" where the dance floor was packed but no tape ever was ever rolling. When he and his fellow bandmates weren't out touring with artists like Tower of Power, Stevie Wonder, Bobby Brown, GQ, Brass Construction, Cameo, Sister Sledge, Spyro Gyra, Atlantic Starr, or Blood, Sweat & Tears, they'd play together at New York City nightclubs where ancient dance anthems were turned upside down with a new funk aesthetic on the fly. Channeling these moments into new material provided the catalyst for what would become Live Funk Nouveau. Arguably born out of frustration in a current era of mostly contrived popular music with interchangeable artists, the boys and girls in Live Funk Nouveau seek to breathe new life into an old but true form of music that has a feel-good connection with all funky people, nations, and cultures.
