The members of Space Bar have years of musical experience between them, playing Jazz, Blues, Afro-beat, Rock, Folk, and Classical. These diverse backgrounds have coalesced into Space Bar’s unique “Avant-Fusion” sound. Playing primarily original compositions, the group’s horn heavy lineup adds a new perspective on what a “Jazz Band” can be. Is it Jazz, or does it just smell funny? There are no limits in space, and Space Bar raises the bar of traditional rhythms and harmonies. Welcome to Space Bar. We look forward to seeing you out there.
Space Bar plays original “Avant-Fusion” music featuring saxes, flute, trumpet, trombone, keys, guitar, bass, and drums. Sometimes even vocals, singing bowls, vibes, and percussion!
Think Weather Report meets Zappa meets The Lounge Lizards meets Snarky Puppy.
