CO-HEADLINE SHOW!
Hailed as a “fast-rising NY band” by Live For Live Music, and a group that's “making waves in the scene" by JamBase, Organ Fairchild craft their organ-trio-meets-rock-band sound — described as “adventurous, vital and alive” by Glide Magazine — by synthesizing influences ranging from Soulive and Medeski Martin & Wood to The Grateful Dead, Steely Dan and the Meters. And when they're on stage completely captivating an audience without a bass player - and nobody singing - there is no confusing them for any other artist on today's scene. As FunkCity.net writes, “Get ready to be bowled over by this terrific trio - old school funk fusion with new era notions of jam.”
