Event Details
***FREE SHOW, just come on in and groove!***
STIG is an all-instrumental progressive jazz funk band consisting of 5 best friends from a myriad of places both geographically and musically. “We share music with each other during the day, and weave those news ideas into our shows at night.” Their improvisational nature paired with tight communication and 2 years of playing and growing together creates an exploratory and engaging live show experience.
STIG tunes are all original and are always written as a group to fuse each member’s genre-crossing influences. Since forming in Boston while attending Berklee College of Music, STIG has been touring the country non-stop, playing high-energy shows, and catering their funk to the vibe and energy of the crowd. The band recently released their debut studio album, Agreed Upon. The recordings are not only a reflection of the band’s uniquely democratic songwriting process, but each member’s relationship to the music at the time it was recorded. “The songs didn’t sound like that before, and they may never again.”
"Their fiery blend of jazz and funk leads to tremendously energetic shows and the album captures the raw energy and
musical ability of these young funksters."
- 215 Music
"Adding their own flavor to the funk revival scene, STIG keeps it smooth and sexy, interesting without ever overstaying their welcome."
- The Deli Magazine
"Feel-good funk...played with the freewheeling abandon you would hope to hear from a bunch of very young, very talented musicians in the act of discovery."
- The Aspen Times
How STIGfans describe the band:
"Fantascadelic" "STIG makes me wiggle in my car when I really ain't got much wiggle room" "A one way trip to funky town" "Ya'll make me feel SAUCY"
