"Satchel Grande doesn't sound like an Omaha band. The group is independent minded, no doubt, but not in the en vouge indie sense. Indie like George Clinton used to be..."
-The Omaha City Weekly

"Satchel Grande churns out toe-tappers and booty-shakers so fierce they almost disguise their brilliant lyrics. The electricity in the air at a Satchel Grande show is enough to ward off any major metropolitan blackout." -The Omaha Entertainment Awards Committee

With enough members for a baseball team, almost enough for two basketball teams and just the right number for the best funk band in Omaha, Satchel Grande points for the fences and hits that sweet soul spot every time. Courtesy of mastermind/frontman Chris Klemmensen and his squad of perhaps, visually unlikely funk-soul brothers, comes an aural extravaganza that effortlessly mixes covers and originals coming producing a winning final score. While there is a comic element at their shows, initiated by Klemmensen’s quick wit from the stage, the group is no joke as it’s a hodgepodge of some of Omaha’s best, with saxman James Cuato (formerly of the Jazzwholes), John Klemmensen (Landing on the Moon), Matt McLarney (Old Money / Truman Sparks), listen I told you there were nine of them … you can research this yourself at the show. -The Reader: Sarah Wengert _____________________
