ABOUT ABOUT

Fan-favorite, horn-driven Brooklyn soul / jazz / hip-hop phenomenon returns to the Rubber City for TWO high-energy Saturday shows in the BLU Zone! Featuring Dan White, Jon Lampley, Chris Ott, Adam DeAscentis, John Hubbell, Josh Hill, Theron Brown.

Huntertones brings people together around the globe with fun, imaginative and fearless music. Their high energy, horn-driven sound fuses inspired improvisation and adventurous composition melding jazz, funk, rock, and soul. Adding depth and contrast to their live set, Huntertones shift from a dynamic six-piece ensemble to a trio featuring saxophone, sousaphone, and beat-boxing, keeping their listeners’ eyes and ears open at every turn.
 
Huntertones formed in Columbus, Ohio at The Ohio State University and hosted their first shows at a house on Hunter Avenue. They have since relocated to New York City, released three albums, and toured North and South America, Europe and Africa — experiences which have pushed the band to expand even further, stylistically. What started as a group of classmates finding a voice has developed into a highly collaborative group of musicians traveling, sharing, and growing together.

“Honest, genuine, skillfully executed music without limitations is uplifting and cannot be quantified. On your journey I highly recommend taking this body of work along with you…”
– Jon Batiste (of Stay Human, bandleader of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert)

Individually, members of Huntertones have compiled a diverse resume of collaborations with top artists in pop, jazz, soul, and musical theater. This includes work with Jon Batiste and Stay Human, O.A.R., Snarky Puppy, Stevie Wonder, Andy Grammer, Ed Sheeran, Allen Stone, Gary Clark Jr., Phillip Phillips, We Banjo 3, Umphrey’s McGee, Vulfpeck, and more.
