The Brandon Allen Groove Band
Deep groove. Expansive soundscapes. Fearless fusion.
Based in London, acclaimed jazz saxophonist and composer Brandon Allen leads this electrifying groove project that fuses funk, fusion, soul jazz, and electronic textures into a dynamic, genre-blurring experience.
Performing original compositions, the band draws from a wide pool of musical influences including Weather Report, Herbie Hancock, Eddie Harris, John Scofield, David Sanborn, The Brecker Brothers, and more—channelling the spirit of 70s and 80s jazz-funk through a contemporary lens.
Expect funky basslines, otherworldly drum grooves, soaring synths, and intricate sax and guitar melodies—woven into soundscapes that are both intoxicating and high-energy.
For fans of fearless improvisation, rich textures, and grooves that move both the body and the mind.
