Featuring John Krasula on guitar, Patrick Moreno on keys, Thomas Milovac on bass, Daniel Bonnet on saxophone and Johnbern Thomas on drums, The Contraband delivers a dynamic and unforgettable live experience. Their debut album, Volume 1 (available everywhere music can be heard), captures a band hitting its stride—balancing deep-pocket grooves, cinematic textures, and improvisational energy. “Fans of Yussef Dayes, Domi & JD Beck, Cory Wong, and Thundercat will feel right at home.”
“Tight Music To Get Loose To.”
90’s Rock Revue Show Description
Deconstructed '90s grunge meets cinematic jazz fusion.
JK & the Contraband delivers a genre-blurring live experience fusing jazz improvisation with the raw energy of ‘90s alternative rock.
Their latest endeavor reimagines classic alt-rock and grunge icons through a fearless, instrumental lens—transforming the music of Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Smashing Pumpkins, and Queens of the Stone Age into atmospheric, groove-driven arrangements.
90’s nostalgia is dominating the zeitgeist and The Contraband is bringing their own spin to the era’s most iconic music.
