PHISH AFTER PARTY

Sun Hop Fat
Pull out your dancing shoes, your shimmering bells, and be prepared to be moved by the eerie sounds of something familiar and yet foreign. The nine piece band, Sun Hop Fat, explores Swinging Addis period Ethiopian jazz with an original and modern sound. Combining saxophones, trumpet, and trombone with a tightly percolating rhythm section, the Oakland based band has the ability to connect to jazz, funk, world, and jam fans of all ages.

Their infectious grooves and dark swells have filled rooms throughout the West Coast and historic Bay Area venues including: The Great American Music Hall, Slim’s, and The Independent. Having already supported Red Baraat, Extra Action Marching Band, Yemen Blues, and Debo Band and having recently had a single from their new album selected by Bandcamp for the Oakland X Compilation, Sun Hop Fat is taking their energetic live show and original music to clubs up and down the west coast as well as the California festival circuit.

ULTRA CINCO

ULTRA CINCO is a ‘fazz junk’ quintet from San Francisco.

We play tight, original arrangements on bass, drums, guitar, saxophone and trumpet. It’s a combination of funk, soul, afrofunk, groove and jazz, with improvised solos and occasional guest vocalists. We gig regularly in San Francisco and the Bay Area.

Our debut EP ‘Fazz Junk’ was recorded and mixed at MegaSonic Sound in Oakland CA, by sound wizard Jeremy Goody. Cover art courtesy of James ‘Pancakes’ Turner. Available now through cdbaby or your favorite digital distributor.
