World’s First Virtual Jazz-Funk Band The Funkdawgs To Experience Reality with Visit to Nashville
Nashville, Tennessee (February, 2006) – Without an actual physical presence since they were formed in 2001, the Funkdawgs, the first virtual jazz-funk band on the planet, are coming together for the very first time in Nashville the last week in March culminating with a concert on Saturday, April 1st at the Gibson Showcase Lounge.
The Funkdawgs are five talented, innovative jazz musicians who have gained years of experience, both in the studio and on stage, and still feel the need to create from their various locations around the globe. The Funkdawgs feature guitarist Bobby Brewer from Nashville, drummer Filippo Bertacche from Vicenza, Italy; saxophonist Bob Johnson from Ottawa, Canada, bassist Bill Lawrence from Albany, New York; and keyboardist Kyle Whitlock from Columbia, South Carolina.
Over the past five years the Funkdawgs have released two internationally-respected and well-received independent albums, Borderless and Dawgma, but have never actually met face-to-face. That’s because the Dawgs all connect, create, contribute and produce their music via the Internet…sending self-recorded WAV files to each other as their songs are developed.
Their musical influences range from funk to fusion to soul jazz to blues to Latin jazz to acid. It’s a heady mixture of rhythms and melodies that breath new energy into today’s world jazz scene.
For their Nashville get-together two major activities are planned. First, an opportunity to finally meet, rehearse and play together. Second, the chance to perform live as a band and video record their concert at the Gibson Showcase Lounge.
The Funkdawgs first gig ever is set for a 5 pm start on Saturday, April 1st. The Gibson Showcase Lounge is directly across the street from the Grand Ole Opry.
