With intricate horn lines, soulful grooves and “de-rangements” of music by artists like Nirvana and Metallica, Highbrid brings the best of the Jazz, Jam, Rock and Soul together into a musical fondue. Led by percussionist/composer Michael Cain, the octet employs some of the most talented and versatile up-and-coming musicians in the region. From bebop sensibilities to soaring, almost surrealistic soundscapes, the spectrum of musical possibilities is thoroughly explored. Deep, pensive grooves keep the group grounded and provides an excellent launch-pad for improvisatory lift-off with charts that are both challenging and comfortable.
Formed in 2006, Highbrid has performed throughout Philadelphia and its current and past members have been heard with The Roots, Jill Scott, Corrine Bailey Rae, Gerald Veasley, Marco Benevento, John Swana, Patty Crash, DJ King Britt, Melody Gardot, Subliminal Orphans, Gebah Swaray, Phil Roy, Dr. Ketchup, the Dirk Quinn Band, The Ross Brown Project, Trinadelphia, Amos Lee, Birdie Busch, Bodega, and many others.
I'm a Professional Life Coach seeking Vocalists/Musicians/Bands that are interested in Improving their lives on any level that they see fit.
Do you want to become a better performer?
Do you want to play more gigs?
Do you need to focus more on marketing?
Do you want to be healthier?
Do you just want to be a better Human Being?
I'm looking to collaborate with Individuals or Entire Bands at all levels of success who are aware that they have some positive changes to make, but just might need a little help focusing in on exactly who it is that they want to be, and/or how to be that person. We all want to be a better something. It's my job to help people do just that.
I am a huge fan of all genres of music and I have managed numerous bands over the past several years.
I've worked with many well known producers, writers, musicians and engineers and might possibly have some great contacts for the right client.
I'm seeking Bands/Musicians who are willing to be coached and willing to invest both the time and effort that it takes to enhance their lives.
I look forward to hearing back from you and partnering with you bring out the potential that we all know is within us.
