PETE / STU / JACK
Play an improvised music that finds its roots in jazz,reggae,funk,latin and hip hop. These elements are fused by an expanding and contracting group to create music with deep groove and joyous melodies.

PSUEDO PLAY-DOH
Being described as a Raw Improvisational Sonic Groove Ensemble, Psuedo Play-Doh fuses the depth of electronic sound with the bitterness of organic/Industrial percussion to establish itself as one of the most unique groups to arise from Brisbane.

With inspiration being drawn from traditional jazz, Soul and World music, all the way to Improvisational Groove, Junk Folk and Sound scape influences, Psuedo Play-Doh is reshaping classic homogenous Funk with a collage of exciting paralleled musical Timbres.

THE BEANS
Come get your greens!

Born in the Leprechaun Colonel's veggie patch (circa 1978-79), were the individuals we've come to love as The Long Green Beans.

This Brisbane based musical juggernaught lays down slabs of funk, folk, blues, rock, reggae, jazz, latin, gypsy, hip-hop, even bluegrass!
Since their genesis in 2003, the group have acted independently, recording four homegrown E.P's, whilst gigging extensively throughout South East Queensland and beyond.

The past year has seen founding members Burl and Nash explore different musical ideas, collaborating with new musicians around the traps. Now settled back in the Brissy surrounds, the guys have re-assembled for an exciting new show in a more rollicking, big-band format, complete with auxillary instrumentation and funky soundscapes.

2008 sees the release of The Long Green Beans debut album Beanstalkin; a grand collection of vibrant, soul infused songwriting, perfect for any lively gathering. The Beans will back the album by embarking on their first Australian tour with a focus on rural area and the festivals circuit. From the ground up, The Beans deliver music in an in an earthy, raw, wholesome fashion. To this collective of musicians, life's epiphanies are just another gig away.

KERBSIDE COLLECTION
Combining jazz sophistication and funk accessibility, Kerbside Collection brings together a group of musicians who understand the importance of complexity verses simplicity in improvised music.

The group achieves its lush sound through the unusual combination of smooth jazz-guitar melodies played against rich keyboards. An electric bass player and funk drummer ensure the groove takes first priority.
