Dopapod Dopapod exists at the crossroads of full throttle intensity, deep pocket groove, intricate technicality, and limitless experimentation. With no regard towards limiting themselves to stylistic boundaries, the sound that emerges from the quartet both live and in the studio is as varied and diverse as the many influences that they adapt from. Their approach and commitment to complementing a distinct genre bending sound to top-notch musicianship has set them apart from many of their contemporaries and keeps music lovers eagerly returning to shows. YouTube The Breakfast The Breakfast is a hard-hitting jazz rock experimental quartet whose music ranges from progressive rock to sonic landscapes. The band has played well over 2500 shows since 1999 under their former moniker “Psychedelic Breakfast”. Since then, they have toured nationally, won a Jammy Award for Best New Groove, and amassed a musical catalog not to be reckoned with. Featuring Tim Palmieri on guitar (also from Kung Fu, The Good Time Boys, and Beatles A-Z), Chris DeAngelis on Bass (also from LoEndFreque), Adrian Tramontano on drums (also from Kung Fu) and Jordan Giangreco on keys (also from Viral Sound)... this band has a rabid following, and for good reason. We couldn't be happier than to announce The Breakfast will play two sets and break their "Hiatus" for us at Fusion Festival. YouTube The Stepkids The Stepkids are a three-piece with an impressive musical résumé-- their members have shared stages and performed in the touring bands of Lauryn Hill, Alicia Keys, and 50 Cent. With the release of their eponymous debut record on Stones Throw, they step into center stage, a place where the glare shines not only on their chops as musicians, but also on their personality as a band and their ability to carry off these impressively formed, iridescent soul songs. - Hari Ashust, Pitchfork Magazine YouTube The Indobox Hailing from Boston, MA, and roots in NEPA, The Indobox is starting dance parties everywhere they go, bringing something they call "Dance Rock". Guitarists Joey Zarick and Mike Carter fuse psychedelic rock guitars with Steve Learson's dirty synth beats and Jules Jenssen's humongous drumming; all with catchy hooks to sing along to. YouTube Normal Instruments NORMAL INSTRUMENTS is the brainchild of Mike Carter, guitarist and singer from the Boston-based band, The Indobox, featuring a cast of excellent musicians Michael Carter from the Indobox, Jules Jenssen from Higher Organix, Matt Beckett from Cosmic Dust Bunnies... and Jeff Bujak. YouTube Sparkplug with Scott Murawski Organist Beau Sasser and drummer Bill Carbone spent several years as the other two-thirds of the late legendary soul-jazz guitarist Melvin Sparks’ trio. At first, most nights were marked by Sparks’ distinctive brand of constructive criticism, both on stage and off. But Beau and Bill listened and learned, and soon the three developed an undeniable chemistry. Scott Murawski is best known as the legendary guitar player from Max Creek, and he will join Sparkplug on this special occasion! YouTube Roots of Creation "RoC is more than 'just' a Reggae band... they cover anything...(dubbed out, of course) and can as easily break into a dance-hall strut splattered w/ electronic slurs...ranging from political-themed righteousness to the sweet, sexy, and downright dirty... a festival staple!" - Jeff Wallace YouTube Higher Organix Featuring Jules Jenssen on Drums, Clayton Squire on Guitar and Brian Ross on Bass Guitar, Higher Organix are known for their completely improvisational performances which seamlessly blend between funk, house, soul, psychedelic rock, jazz fusion, and livetronica. YouTube Jeff Bujak Jeff Bujak is a Northampton, MA based keyboardist /producer/composer who has designed a new style of dance music that dives deep into the waters of complex electronica and he’s carving a fresh path in the live-music scene one performance at a time. Though, if you ask a Jeff Bujak fan to describe his music, a blank face followed by a smile would prove to be a common trial answer, then usually words like ‘dirty’ and ‘epic’ start pouring out. His music falls into a large pool of electronica dance genres, lands on one and leaps to the next while he wails away on his keyboards to create something truly moving, smart and original. YouTube Otis Grove Otis Grove creates a larger than life sound crafted by three talented musicians: Sam Gilman on piano, keys, and organ, Tyler Wayne Drabick on electric guitar, and Blake Goedde on drums and percussion. They create a unique and hard-hitting sound combining elements of rock, funk, and jazz into something completely unique. They have coined this sound “The Runk”. YouTube The Big Sway The Big Sway is a sonic wrecking ball, smashing down the walls between the epic psychedelia of funk and the raw fury of punk rock. A constantly evolving trio based out of Massachusetts, The Big Sway has been wowing audiences of all ages since their conception in the Summer of 2007. With their long anticipated first release, The Cheese EP, now available, The Big Sway has been in constant support, playing shows throughout the New England. YouTube Pongo’s Groove Pongo’s Groove is an Improvisational band from Holliston MA. Their endeavor is to engage in and share with the crowd the fun and excitement of improvisational music. They try to take people to places they have never been before through the means of live music and energy. Roo Joseph Nicora aka Roo born in 1978, exploded his unique style of deep progressive house into the east coast rave scene back in '97. His impressive gigs include legendary parties such as the Boo events in NYC, the Tunnel and Lime Light. Roo, previously known as D.J. Mavrick, has touched on break beats, trance, glitch and even found his own style in dirty electro house keeping the vibe positive and all kinds of dirty. He is no stranger to summer music festivals. He's made appearances at New York Harvest Festival, Camp Bisco, Heads in Harmony and Camp Coldbrook. Keeping with his theme of constant progression, Roo now finds himself somewhere between deep house, tech, and dirty disco.
