DR. BACON is a 6 Piece touring Appalachian Funk, Grass and Rock & Roll band. Wielding a diverse instrumentation with broad, deep musical influences allows the band to perform a plethora of energetic, accessible, and danceable music.The Dr. Bacon Live Experience is truly a spectacle to behold, bringing the audience on a musical journey that lulls and spikes in energy, caressing ears with lush beauty and whipping crowds into a tribal romp, shaking booties and shedding inhibitions. This manic versatility ensures that no matter what genre of music you identify with most, you will hear something that resonates at a Bacon show. Dr. Bacon started playing together in 2012 on King Street in Boone, NC as a 3 piece busking with acoustic bluegrass, folk, and 90s pop/rock/hip-hop influenced party music. Several lineup changes over the years and a relocation to Asheville, NC have refined, redirected, electrified, and matured the band’s sound, incorporating funk, rock, soul, psychedelic and world music to their bedrock of Appalachian influences. The blending of several elements of these genres (often within the same song) along with a unique & shifting instrumentation is the real Dr. Bacon flavor, and Bacon goes with everything!
Dr. Bacon is: Jesse Talbott- Lead Vocals & Guitar, Trombone Myles Dunder- Vocals, Saxophones, Guitars, Etc. Michael Crawford Harmonica, Keys & Synth Ben New- Drums,
JULIA.
On March 1st, 1999, NOAA scientists taking deep ocean recordings with a hydrophone picked up a warbling, cooing noise, which they dubbed 'Julia'. This mother of the deep has not been caught, always eluding mans' watching eyes and clutching hands, but her siren call has found its way into our hearts and thus our music.
The funk foursome from Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
Dr. Funkenstein walks the Earth once more, and by his side are his chosen few: Count Slapula, The Creature from the Groove Lagoon, and Moon Dog himself.
