2. BRIAN J ABOUT BRIAN J Brian J is an artist who is gifted at so many aspects of artistry in music. Brian J is featured on drums, guitar and vocals as well as contributing songwriting. He was recently nominated for a Grammy for his role as producer and musician on Cedric Burnside’s hill country blues album Benton County Relic. Brian J has released five albums and played around the world with his funk band Pimps Of Joytime. Most recently he has launched a guitar drenched world funk project called Gitkin. The debut album Five Star Motel received great reviews and solid streaming numbers. Brian J is an artist with superhero powers—he has the ability to be a one-man-band in the studio, and an inspired bandleader on stage, playing his guitar with swagger and style, and soulfully singing with powerful baritone and falsetto voices. When you hear the music that Brian J creates, it’s immediately understandable that he chooses to split his time between Brooklyn and New Orleans, because he so easily creates a gumbo that seamlessly draws from blues, soul, Latin, funk, and African styles.

3. GITKIN Gitkin is the alter ego of Brooklyn resident and Grammy- nominated producer/musician Brian J. What began as a desire to create some obscure, cinematic vibe music is quickly transforming into a vibrant recording and live music endeavour. The style of music, dubbed “psychedelic world funk” draws from multiple influences from around the globe. While he has often been compared to hipster sensation Khruangbin, Gitkin’s sound is heavier and more direct. The Gitkin live band is a five-piece comprised of some of Brooklyn’s finest world funk personnel. The live experience is infused with the energy of deep grooves punctuated with heavy percussion, exotic guitars and vintage keyboards. From cinematic sonic soundscapes to climatic crescendos, the live show leaves crowds wondering, “Who the hell are these guys?!”Gitkin a.k.a Brian J has recently come off a year tour with hill country blues champion Cedric Burnside who’s 2018 Grammy-nominated album “Benton County Relic” was produced, played on and co-wrote by Brian J.

4. PIMPS OF JOYTIME Pimps of Joytime puts the needle in the groove with its fresh collection of 10 funk anthems ready to put a smile on faces across the globe. An intersection of Brooklyn’s indie music scene, New Orleans funk and San Francisco soul, the Pimps’ new studio release Third Wall Chronicles (Sugar Road Records: March 24, 2017) unites us around a common bond of Peace, Love and Music. The apex of positivity and a solace from the daily grind shines bright as the Pimps of Joytime throw the dance party of the year on Third Wall Chronicles and everyone is invited!
