Hometown Sounds

If today’s video doesn’t get you in the mood to boogie, you should seek medical attention promptly. Big brassy funk has always had a big following in DC, from See-I and Black Masala to Chopteeth and The Funk Ark. But did you know that the man in charge of horns for Prince & The New Power Generation now lives in DC? Philip Lassiter is his name and his prolific work ethic led to the impressive release of two full length albums in 2014. His debut music video, the adorably silly dancing showcase “Strut” comes from the latter album, DreamZzz, and if you liked that then prepare to pony up for his re-released debut album Philthy and fill your life with sweet sweet funk.
