The TH3: Emerging from the vibrant music scene of Minneapolis, The TH3 is an instrumental funk trio that transfixes audiences with their musical chemistry and diligent dedication to the groove. The band consists of three established local musicians: Jeff Ham on guitar, Grant Eull on bass,, and Randy Kramer on drums. Together, they craft a fresh yet nostalgic sound, drawing deep inspiration from seminal funk acts of the 1970s such as The Meters, Funkadelic and The Average White Band as well as more recent pioneers like 5ive Style, and The Brand New Heavies. Inspired by a Barfield performance at The Continental Club in Austin Tx, Jeff Ham returned home with the desire to revisit his funky roots established in the 90s as a founding member of Minneapolis legends The Curbfeelers. After sharing some demos with Grant and Randy the trio quickly formed and began to create its unique style so they could share the joy with others as a live show. The music of The TH3 is a celebration of funk’s rich history, infused with their own creative twist. With deep grooves, infectious rhythms, and un-egocentric musicianship, The TH3 is ready to bring those timeless grooves on to the local stage.
J-Mo on the Beat and the J-Lighters: A Liberian Sing-songwriter who dabbles in 50s Rock n Roll music with the J-Lighters.
