PRESENTED BY
MadFro is a four-piece Funk/Rock/Hip-Hop band from New Orleans. Formed in late 2013, the band consists of former members of various New Orleans bands including xDefinition, AbPsych, Purvis and Fo On the Flo. Their sound is a flavorful fusion of Hendrix-fied funk guitar, organic hip hop bass lines, dynamic Bonham-esque drum beats and catchy, yet thought-provoking, lyrical juxtaposition.
The band, fronted by lyricist, Slangston Hughes, sets the tone for the band with his clever wordplay and rhythmic approach. On guitar is the Portuguese-born, English-raised Orlando da Silva, whose eclectic style and psychedelic flashes give the band its edge. The MadFro sound is fired up by the Mississippi native drummer, Troy Dearmon, who lays down the band's dynamic canvas.. This colorful fusion of sound is glued together by the funky, but never simplistic, bassist William Creppell.
Heavily influenced by earlier acts such as The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fishbone, Public Enemy, Curtis Mayfield, James Brown, and the timeless Jimi Hendrix, MadFro's mission to spread psychedelic funk/rock flavored good vibes has been captured in their debut EP, "I.F.W.I.," set to be released on January 17, 2014.
