Con Brio’s Jonathan Kirchner on The Music to Freak to Series

 

 

Music To Freak To has been the baddest party in San Francisco that last 3 months.  It has been an opportunity for Con Brio to make a small Mission District venue it’s home, and to invite great bands of many styles to share in the action.  Frequent guest musicians in Con Brio’s sets and collaboration between bands has made each night unique and unforgettable.  The band has also recorded each of their sets in beautiful multi-track audio and will be assembling the material for an upcoming live album release later this year, with the goal of capturing the sweat, grit, soul and booty-shaking fun of a Con Brio show.  Don’t miss out on closing night on April 23rd, with 4 great bands performing, culminating in Con Brio bringing out their best moves yet for their final set of the series.

 

Con Brio In The Press: 

There’s a dusky, smoky quality to Con Brio’s music that would sound killer on an old-school hi-fi in the well-appointed living room of a ‘60s jazz aficionado. Since that sort of experience doesn’t really exist anymore, the band’s live shows must suffice. The name—a musical term that means “going forward with vigor”—is appropriate for the ensemble, which specializes in twilight-hour blues, powerfully deployed funk licks and intensely soulful laments. Vocalist, guitarist and bassist Xandra Corpora, a formidable presence, embodies the band’s passionate drive.   – Santacruz.com
