The Heard Eye

New Music Release Party!

Trumpeter/vocalist PAUL SCHNEIDER and Guitarist HANNES DE KASSIAN, and Keyboardist CHRIS STUDER bring their powerhouse band ready to rock, down to funk!

The HEARD EYE began as a remote recording project during the Covid pandemic in 2020. Trumpeter/vocalist PAUL SCHNEIDER and Guitarist HANNES DE KASSIAN began re-cording songs remotely with a host of musicians contributing tracks. That album is “FUNKALYPSE”, released in Summer 2023. Tracks from the album quickly began racking up streams on Spotify and other streaming services, made the Top 50 on the global digital radio charts and the Top 200 on U.S. college radio, and have been featured on 97.7 “the River” and 95.9 “the Krush as well as in the Bohemian and Pacific Sun. Tracks from the album have over 300,000 streams on Spotify alone! The band now also consists of CHRIS STUDER on keyboards and backing vocals, bassist GREGG DUNN and drummer PETER FFRENCH. Live, they present the songs from the album as well as new material and improvisational journeys through time and space.

Bringin’ on the Funkalypse!! Praise for the Heard Eye album “Funkalypse”:

"...trumpeter and vocalist Paul Schneider blended everything from frenetic funk and jaunty jazz, pop infectiousness and West

Coast sunkissed grooves, rock weight and soulful licks into Funkalpse, 11 original tracks that just ooze with sass and swagger

and sonic seduction."
