Brian Kastan Releases Groovy Improvisational Funk Rock Album FUN GROOVE
Brian Kastan’s new album Fun Groove consists of 9 fun new songs. Fun Groove is an album of groove tunes with rock and funk drum grooves. The album features Dave Berger on drums and Jay Brunka on bass. As the grooves are hitting, Brian improvises over the top of them using a modern free rhythmic approach to guitar soloing. Brian’s rocking metallic guitar tone brings the listener on a fun and raw guitar solo journey as it floats over the grooves. He improvises solos within the structure of the tunes, supported by the warm bass sound and sharp pop of the drums.
Fun Groove is a hard-hitting album that blends rock, funk, and jazz with a feel-good jam band feel and catchy melodies. This album is the 5th album with the same band members. Previous records with this group consist of Free Blues and Dinner Music for Strangers volumes 1, 2, and 3.
