Down North featuring OSO at the Firefly Lounge

Down North consists of lead vocalist/dancer Anthony RenaGade Briscoe, whose North Carolina breeding makes fans swoon and has no equal in the Pacific NW. Raised on Michael Jackson and Sam Cooke, Anthony combines a style and emotional impact reminiscent of Prince in his vocal expressions, proudly stealing the spotlight with his ballet-trained dancing. Bassist Brandon Storms displays versatility, blending slap/pop bass lines with deep synth, and pitch bent solos that parallel guitar leads. Drummer Conrad Real glues together a foundation through impeccable groove and powerful chops, his finesse, intensity, and strength evocative of Chris Coleman or John Blackwell. Psychedelic-jazz guitarist Nick Quiller dominates the fretboard with limitless imagination, shredding into another dimension, exploring the soundscape from high to low.

Off Side On is an eccentric, eclectic, and perhaps most of all an electric expression of art and music. Most typically, it takes form in the space between.

OSO formed in Bellingham, Wa in 2014 after developing a unique sound through improvisation, experimentation, and song writing. Primarily focusing on the space between OSO fuses jam, funk, rock, folk, trance, and disco sounds for truly creative sonic journey into the mind. After gaining traction in their hometown of Bellingham OSO began reaching out for festival appearances and shows abroad
