Биография

Known for magnetizing performances, chilling harmonies, and a unique style of improvisation, Detroit's funky fusion band Act Casual has been taking over the Midwest music scene by blending the blues, funk, long instrumentals, and tight pop tunes with infectious melodies. In the last few years, the group has seen an increased following of dedicated fans that brought them from jamming in a basement to playing sold out shows at iconic venues such as Detroit’s Magic Stick, Ann Arbor’s Blind Pig, Grand Rapids’ Tip Top Deluxe, and Mount Pleasant’s Centennial Hall. They have also made a name for themselves in the music festival circuit headlining Livestock Music Festival and Sugar Creek Music Festival as well as performing at Ann Arbor Hash Bash, Arts Beats & Eats, Big Fam Music Festival, Sacred Vibrations Festival, a Bernie Sanders rally, and many more. Act Casual has shared the bill with national acts including Larry McCray, Laith al-Saadi, Brendan Bayliss and Ryan Stasik of Umphrey's McGee, Spafford, Moon Hooch, Muruga Booker and Gabe Gonzalez of Parliament Funkadelic, The Werks, Magic Beans, The Nth Power, Dizgo, and The North 41. The presence they have built on stage and throughout the Midwest is undeniable, leading to press in Rolling Stone Magazine, The Detroit Metro Times, Local Spins, The Stratton Setlist, and Music Connection Magazine. The group recently released four singles to the tune of over 30,000 streams on Spotify including radio play on 101 WRIF and 90.9 WDET.
