WURKestra Supergroup

Artists / Performers

Event Details

After 10 years of touring the Midwest as a funk-fusion band, Wurk is preparing its most ambitious project yet as its capstone. In collaboration with the DB Orchestra, a 17-piece big band loaded with trumpets, trombones, and saxophones plus percussion and sousaphone, Wurk will be presenting the WURKestra for a limited run of concerts in the fall. Inspired by Umphrey`s McGee, Snarky Puppy, Lettuce, Phish and many others, Wurk`s innovative original songs and ambitious interpretations of popular covers offer an impressive blend of jazz fusion, prog rock, jam rock and more, all with the consistent underlying grooves of funk. The DB Orchestra, led by Andy Kerber, combines the nuanced harmonies of a doo-wop group, the intensity of a marching band, and the flair of great jazz ensembles of yesteryear. With a roster of nearly 20 musicians, the hot horns, smooth saxes, and driving drums of the DB Orchestra will keep your head humming and toes tapping long after the show`s over.
