Butcher Brown’s album ‘Solar Music’, while rooted in jazz, expands into a blend of genres, including Hip-Hop and R&B/Soul. The 17-track album includes several featured guests: Pink Siifu, Braxton Cook, Jay Prince, Nappy Nina, Keyon Harrold, Michael Millions, Charlie Hunter and more. ”Solar Music’ is everything under the sun. We get asked so often what type of genre/pedigree we fall into, and at the end of the day, we play all of our influences. It’s not genre specific..It’s all types, and this album is a true representation of that. Solar Music is for everybody.’ – Butcher Brown

#KingButch—hashtag proudly attached—is the title of Butcher Brown’s soon-to-be top-trending album, the eighth in the band’s up-from-the-roots legacy, and their first with Concord Records, on the Concord Jazz imprint. The 13 tracks collectively represent a bold step forward for the 5-piece group from Richmond, Virginia. Remaining true to the group’s heady fusion of contemporary hip-hop, ‘70s fusion, ‘60s jazz and funk—even echoes of Southern rock and marching band music show up—#KingButch is a powerfully original statement that reaches across divisions of genre, generation, ethnicity, and geography. Significantly, the new recording also reveals a side of Butcher Brown that’s been developing and is now in full-flower: a song-crafting, studio maturity on a par with their national reputation as an explosive live act.
