Buster Brown Band @ Whitlows 6/6/08
Buster Brown solo looping w/ tap, Washington DC 4/8/08
The vibe will amaze you—complete with guitar riffs and drum beats to bob your head, lyrical rants and storytelling to make you laugh - not to mention world-class tap dancing (yes, tap dancing!). If you enjoy a mix of musical styles then be prepared to fall in love as Buster and his band explore funk, rock, old school hip-hop, acoustic, jam band, reggae, and jazz. It's the perfect soundtrack for a road trip, daily commute, or to break the ice at your next party. It's the kind of sound that delivers instant classics and beckons the question “Why haven't I heard of these guys?”
