“A dangerous cocktail of creative sophisticated funk.…”
—Montreal International Jazz Festival
Get ready to party like it’s 1999. For the first time in over a decade all the original members of the seminal acid-jazz/funk super group Belizbeha will be on the same stage for one night only. At their zenith this seven-piece collective achieved tremendous success on the road and in the studio. They toured nationally sharing the stage with Maceo Parker, A Tribe Called Quest and The Wailers and shook crowds of over 10,000 at the Montreal International Jazz Festival and Reggae On The River. Their two albums, Charlie’s Dream and Void Where Inhibited, sold nearly 40,000.
Led by saxophonist Bryan McNamara, Strength In Numbers is a 'family-band' experience featuring some of the most talented and well-rounded musicians around. Their eclectic mix of hip-hop, funk, jazz, R&B, and good ol' booty-shakin' music has had audiences on their feet all over the Northeast. The group is scheduled to release their debut studio EP, Less Is More, this spring, followed by a summer tour.
