SwAy is the progressive funk brainchild of Jamie Rudrum and Andrew Malnic of Vernon, British Columbia. These two long-time friends seamlessly fuze together years of production and performance experience to form an addicting sound that's constantly pushing the boundaries of modern music. 

SwAy's debut, self-titled album is the culmination of many months of hard work and represents the duo in the best possible way. Many roads have led to this point in these artists' career, and we're sure glad they've ended up here! As our brothers from the north say - funk yeah!

Papadosio - 2014-03-08 - The Fox Theatre - Boulder ,CO - Snorkle

An emerging funk duo composed of Rygol and Bobb Tracks, Funkstatik brings the old Motown sound fused with glitchy bass and catchy melodies. Funkstatik's recently launched live set sees the duo trading back and forth on the drums to spice up the tempo and add variance to the flavor and style of the rhythm. This feet stompin, groovin and energetic pair is sure to get your body moving.

One Day They'll Know (Break Science Remix)

08 We Are Now Connected live 1.25.20.13

Lotus has crafted a unique musical style outside of simple genre limitations. On a given weekend the band could be the only group with guitars at an all electronic music festival and then the next night crash a traditional rock festival with their dance heavy beats, synths and samples. Equal parts instrumental post-rock and electronic dance, the band's distinguishing feature is the ability to maintain a decidedly unique musical voice and remain current while bucking passing trends.

No matter what the venue, the energetic joy and catharsis of a Lotus show is infectious. The band slowly built a devoted fan base through steady touring and the crowds have grown at an increasing pace. This grassroots growth has made the band in high demand for festivals including Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, Ultra, and Rothbury and earned the band sold out shows at the country's premier theatres and clubs.
