Eldridge Gravy & Lucky Brown | Wild Buffalo | Saturday September 18th | 9PM | $8 Cover

Eldridge Gravy & The Court Supreme: http://eldridgegravy.com/
Seattle 11-piece Eldridge Gravy and the Court Supreme follow in the uproarious tradition of expansive funk ensembles that have been raising roofs since Nixon was befouling the Oval Office. The seven songs on their Us Is What Time It Is CD flaunt a fleet, fiery funk bolstered by soari…ng orchestrations, tight arrangements, and groin-grinding rhythms. Vocalist Eldridge Gravy recalls Stevie Wonder’s youthful, animated tenor, ably conveying the soulful inspiration upon which these units thrive. Sweet, sweaty times await you.

Lucky Brown: http://myspace.com/joelricci
Lucky Brown is the name of an archetype conceived by composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Joel Ricci. Assisted by The Funk Revolution, Ricci’s project conjures a funk symbol from the past to bring to life real, authentic, earthy human emotion. The struggle Lucky Brown faces to reconcile life in a brutal, materialistic world with his spiritual potential mirrors mankind’s universal experience. Lucky Brown is Ricci’s medium to explore and comment on the heart’s vacillation between love and fear, while using original raw rhythm and harmony to project a vision of hope for the future. “Gritty modern funk with an impeccably dusty vibe” [Dusty Groove America, Jan 2008] “Ricci’s Lucky sounds like the Godfather of Soul” [The Olympian, July 2008] * “There is no question that Joel Ricci is hip to it” [What's Up Magazine, Dec. 2007] * “Dancing around center stage, Ricci mastered the music like puppet strings to stir the crowd into a frenzy…” [The Westsern Front] * “Vocalist Joel Ricci has one of the most soulful male voices I’ve ever heard…” [hotbands.com] *
