bio
No Turn On Red is a solid funk band that delivers thick killer grooves with an injection of New Orleans brass band flare. The personnel consist of heavy hitter, professional musicians who have cut their teeth moving up the ranks of the Chicago music scene. The music lineup consists of straight up old school funk, danceable grooves, and tasty covers.
The bands’ influences include the Meters, Rebirth Brass Band, James Brown, Jimmy Hendrix, The Blues Brothers, The Dirty Dozen, Lettuce, Tower of Power, Galactic, and the great Stevie Wonder. Since its inception, No Turn On Red’s mission has been to produce high energy shows with a provocative mix of styles that inconspicuously blend old school with the new kool.
