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.

I played Potatocakes in a set of original 45s last night... the place went ape shit!! One girl came up to the decks and swore it was a 45 from the 70's!!! It's such a killer joint!!! I need more of that stuff!!!!!
No Meltdown this year? I was looking over the roster and didn't see you all on there. That sucks because I thought you all had a great set last year and was looking forward to another stellar set this year. Maybe I will have to catch you around town this summer. Are you all still playing Mondays at the Buffalo?
