BIO

Olympic Sound Collective brings jazz back to the dance floor with their original fusion of Soul, jazz and funk. The rhythm section grooves with the combination of funk bass from the B3 organ and keys, street beat drumming and old school guitar riffing. The dual horn section of trumpet and sax provide punches and hooks that build the music to fantastic peaks. Fans of, Galactic, MMW, The Meters, Charlie Hunter and other jazz/funk groove artists will feel right at home when they hear the 1st few seconds of the sound that is, unmistakably, Olympic Sound Collective.

Black Cherry Crush is a dance party with some serious soul. With front-woman Fysah Thomas leading with funk-soul flavored tunes and rock-heavy scorchers, Black Cherry Crush throws down electro-pop bootie shakers along with guitar-shredding thrashers. This newly formed quintet is sure to set the dance floor on fire and leave the audience panting for more with their uniquely diverse sound and undeniable enthusiasm.

Soul Senate is a 7-piece, high-energy, adrenaline-inducing, audience-oriented, original soul/funk/jazz party powerhouse. Bridging the decidedly funky sounds of the 60s & early 70s–such as the Meters, Stevie Wonder, and various Stax artists–with a distinct modern sound in the vein of Raphael Saadiq, Alice Russell, Eli Paperboy Reed, and the New Mastersounds; Soul Senate claims their own musical territory with booty shaking grooves, well-crafted arrangements, and memorable instrumentals and vocal songs
