The opening act is another GED soul product. Coming fresh off their debut album, Magic In Threes has a sound that is best described as psychedelic soul.

PLUS – Big Brother Thunder & The Masterblasters (featuring members of JNeuro Experiment). Big Brother Thunder blends funk, rock, jazz and soul by pulling from African, Caribbean and Brazilian styles and rhythms. Creating an inescapably danceable band. Combining the tastes and talents of band leaders Drew Franklin (bass), Gabe Bonfili (drums) and Jeff Burns (percussion), Big Brother Thunder creates soul-moving, foot-stomping world beats while mixing in tastes of home. The inspired, philosophical rhymes of St. Louis’s own MC TROY, the edgy tinge of organist Kent Jones, guitarist Craig Florez and the masterful horns of the MasterBlasters complete the experience.

This is the first of many great funk and soul revues to come, thanks for supporting the good stuff!
