Cosmic Groove Orchestra transcends the earthly plane with their celestial soundscapes, blending the ethereal harmonies of the universe with the raw, pulsating rhythms of funk and soul-jazz. Inspired by the vibrant sounds of New Orleans, their music captures the essence of James Brown's electrifying energy, The Meters' funky grooves, Galactic's modern flair, and Grant Green's soulful jazz guitar. This Portland-based ensemble channels the energy of the cosmos into every performance, creating a sonic journey that invites listeners to explore the outer reaches of their musical imagination.
Featuring John Morrow (sax), Rachel Breshears (keys), James Mason (guitar), Leah Hinchcliff on bass and Ward Griffiths (drums), Cosmic Groove Orchestra delivers stellar instrumentation and a groove that defies gravity. They're here to elevate your experience and take you on a ride through the galaxy of sound.
