Vulfpeck is a funk outfit from Ann Arbor, MI. They made headlines last year when they released an album titled “Sleepify” on Spotify. There was one catch, the album didn't contain any music. Before Spotify pulled the album from their service they racked up $20,000 which was used to fund a tour of free shows.
A friend introduced me to them last night. He queued up this performance from last month when the group performed on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”. Joined by Jon Batiste and Stay Human they performed the absolutely electric “1612”. This has got to be one of the tastiest pieces of performance I've seen/heard in a long time.
I can't stop watching this. I need more Vulfpeck in my life. You can check out their new record “Thrill of the Arts” over on their website.
