Bio
Some call it psychedelic funk, others believe it to be pseudo-jazz or even jam-oriented face-melting rock. Regardless of what you call it, their "filthy funky groove" is unlike anything else. From hard-nosed critics to casual listeners who just want to get their groove on, this band satisfies with a sonically innovative style that might be difficult to pinpoint, but it's easy to get down to. The Big Dirty has performed from the Canadian border deep into the Blue Ridge Mountains, spanning from the Atlantic shore to the Midwest. They have been fortunate enough to share stages with Grammy nominees and world-famous acts, while performing at some of the greatest venues and festivals America has to offer. The Big Dirty delivers from a wide palette that finds a place among any audience that enjoys soulful, inspiring, fresh, and creative instrumentation. With each member utilizing a wide variety of effects and styles, and creative collaborations within the songwriting process, TBD continues to forge a signature sound that makes heads turn and bodies move.
