Escape to the future with soul, electronic and funk band Rhett Frazier Inc., at Joe's Pub on Saturday, March 27 March 27, 2010

“the best elements of classic blue eyed soul and funk” - Skope Magazine

RHETT FRAZIER and drummer/producer DONNY GRUENDLER are on a mission to combine MOTOWN and STAX soul with electronic sound bites and “out there” guitar effects. While giving soul music a futuristic finish is as old an idea as EURYTHMICS’ seminal LP ‘SWEET DREAMS (ARE MADE OF THIS)’ back in 1982, there are two ingredients that ESCAPE FROM DEE-TROYT possesses in abundance that the sharply dressed LENNOX/STEWART partnership lacked – balls and reckless abandon.’ - Rockwired
“takes Stax-era guitar licks, blues attitude and 70s R&B crossover appeal and blends it into a tasty milkshake of auditory heaven.” - LA Examiner

“a classic sound…that reminds us of some of our favorite blue-eyed funky rock from way back.” - Dusty Groove America

“a combination of Funkadelic, Rare Earth, Flaming Ember, Frank Zappa and Al Green rolled into one along with that raw, gritty Detroit sound that would make the late, great Norman Whitfield proud.” - DJ A-Ski

Rhett Frazier Inc., will bring their funky and playful soultronic sound to Joe's Pub (425 Lafayette Street) on Saturday, March 27, 2010. They will be joined by Chris Knight and Dende and Hahahaes. Advanced tickets are available online (http://tickets.publictheater.org/) or at the door for $15.
