Top Brass: Lubriphonic comes to Holland

Lubriphonic, a Chicago- based soul-funk-rock band will be playing at the Holland Park Theater this Fri., April 9.

The band is 7 strong with a full brass section, percussion, guitars and keyboard. In what appears to be a truly collaborative effort, it's members have played with other, and in many instances very famous acts (acts like Lenny Kravitz and Buddy Miles and Otis Rush), but share the stage equally as part of Lubriphonic.

They got their start as the house band at the legendary Checkerboard Lounge in Chicago's Hyde Park area. Since then, they have released two albums, and are working on a third entitled The Gig is On. Their shows are energetic- even people who don't dance will dance. Free sampler here!

Lubriphonic is:
Giles Corey - Vocals & Guitar
Richard King -Drums
Pennal Johnson - Bass
Garrick Patten - Sax
Ron Haynes trumpet /congas
Norman Palm - trombone
Andrew Toombs - Keyboards

Sharing the stage will be local roots artist Greg Nagy, who also released an album recently, entitled, Walk that Fine Line.

The show begins at 9 p.m. and doors will open at 8:30.
