World hiphop Funkjazz in the spirit of Galactic, Ulu, and James Brown
Bio / Background
Avatar is pure explosive raw funkfusion.
They launch you to higher levels of the funky universe. From the first hit, the dynamic energy of their shows grabs you and compells you to get up and rock with the sharp pulsating & sometimes angular rhythms and mind-altering melodies. Imagine the child of the Brand New heavies, Earth wind & fire, Soulive and Antibalas merged into the ultimate groovin booty shaking band
Originally started in 1998 by Vince Veloso and Teana "Alkebulan" Rodriguez while at NYU, it has grown into the explosive ensemble that lays out catchy & complex musical combinations with more power than a heavyweight prize fighter. Their music and lyrics, shaped with elements of funk, jazz, soul, rock, worldbeat and a little hiphop, flow effortlessly into your soul and easily raise your body and spirit.
The last incarnation: Matt Dickey, Marshall Gilkes, Seth Goldberg, Vince Veloso and Matt Williams earned international acclaim with their initial CD, "The Cosmic Hand" in 2003.
