Strange Mechanics is a progressive, funk driven jamband from Cincinnati, OH. They have been in direct support of acts such as Papadosio, The Werks, Ekoostik Hookah, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, The Main Squeeze, Turbo Suit, The Mantras, and Yo Mama’s Big Fat Booty Band. From soulful tunes to down low funk, firey guitar solos to groovy live electronica, all layered with vocal harmonies, Strange Mechanics has created a truly unique sound. Their live shows key on improvisation to make each show a one of a kind experience. For those about to funk we salute you.

/// Desmond Jones /// Grand Rapids, MI
Desmond Jones is a five-piece funk/rock/jazz fusion band from Grand Rapids, Michigan. With original music written to complement the group’s sound as a whole, the music is centered around melodic guitar riffs, smooth bass lines, funky drum beats, and tasteful saxophone.
Since 2012 this unique group has played with groups like Dopapod, The Werks, Kung Fu, EOTO, Marco Benevento, TAUK, The Verve Pipe, Badfish, Here Come the Mummies, The Main Squeeze and many more. The group takes influence from Frank Zappa, The Grateful Dead, Phish, Charles Mingus, The Band, and Led Zeppelin to name a few.
Desmond Jones puts on exciting and high energy shows and is proud to say that each set list and each song is different from show to show.
