Sneezy
Best friends since 1st grade, sharing the groove one beat at a time. Sneezy brings the funk and soul
from Chicago!
Sneezy’s sound is the perfect culmination of all things good in music. It fuses the genres of pop, reggae, hip-hop, and rock, and it has a natural, summery sunshine feel to every track. Their neo-soul undertone provides a little something extra to their music and creates an infectious, addicting rhythm that you’ll be glad to have stuck in your head.
Like James Brown, Sneezy turns in a killer show and leaves it all on the stage, every time. Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, Sneezy’s catchy, cascading rhythms spiral onwards, leading scores of carousing fans dancing & singing along with songs they know by heart. From frontman Brett O’Connor: “We’re always having fun on stage, and you really get our music when you see us live. Our mission is to create an ever-growing community through our music.”
New Nostaglia
Compared to some jazz music, New Nostalgia’s music is really demanding, highly notated and specific. It’s like a jigsaw puzzle, where the song only works if all the parts are arranged and performed just right.
That being said, I do try to find pockets in the music for everyone to have their moments of creative freedom––and I’ve come to rely on a lot of the band members to exercise that freedom. I could never come up with the fills + textures that Brandon (our guitarist) plays, or the wild, endlessly varied interludes that Larry (our pianist) comes up with between tunes on our gigs.
I think, as a saxophonist, I get a lot of satisfaction playing a part just as the composer intended it––realizing their vision. So I’m super grateful to have bandmates who are willing to see my vision and use their insane musicianship to help us get there together :)
