Sounds Like
Sounds like no one you've heard. A mix of NOLA funk and touch of funky yet tasteful rock n' roll with excellent grooves and solo's that keep a crowd up and moving. The influences mentioned can be heard in the live performance.
Take the drummer from the Neville Brothers, Willie Green and add two members of the Rebirth Brass Band, Shamar Allen and Flea, and then add two members of the Cosmic Sweat Society and Big Sams Funky Nation, Elliott Cohn and Kenny Green, and finally round it off with one of the finest keyboard players in the crescent city, Mike Burkhardt and you have the New Orleans UnderDawgs. The sound is intense, funky, full of rock and soul and never sways too far from the traditional styles of the funky sound started in New Orleans.
This extradornairily talented group of musicians have decided to collaborate and put together a sound and live show that is a must see for every fan of funk music.
