Blending bluegrass, funk, and rock with a psychedelic twist, they have a unique sound that has to be heard. Brian Kassay gets the party started, a one man band bending your reality with live loops! STiLGONE is a Bozeman, MT based band that plays a unique fusion of genres, spanning funk, soul, hip hop, reggae, psychedelic rock and more. While covering so many styles they manage to create a cohesive sound that is uniquely their own. This unique sound has been dubbed “Intergalactic Dirtbag Soul”. Their live shows are an immersive trip through detailed soundscapes, danceable grooves, and the lyrics of songwriter and guitarist Symon Palmer, who founded the band originally in 2016. From there STiLGONE established themselves playing frequent shows at the Zebra Cocktail Lounge, touring nearby towns and local festivals, and supporting major touring acts such as Deltron 3030, and Nappy Roots. Borderline Lucid started as a solo man on a mission. In 2020, Brandon “Lucid” Dombrowski left behind the life he knew in pursuit of something grand. The chance to follow his childhood dream. As a young boy, he’d follow along the high keys while his mother orchestrated classical pieces on her household baby grand piano. Learning percussion, trombone, and guitar became a foundation for his true passion, songwriting. Brian Kassay is a live-looping multi-instrumentalist who seamlessly blends guitar, drums, keys, harmonica, xylophone, and violin to create a full and dynamic sound. Brian experiments with live looping techniques, layering different textures and sounds to create an intricate and mesmerizing musical performance. Brian does not use any backing or sampled tracks. Instead, his high-energy songs captivate audiences by building the composition layer-by-layer in real time with both physical and digital instrumentation. His show includes a growing catalog of both covers and originals which blend elements of folk, rock, and electronic music. He strives to push the boundaries of music by creatively weaving together a multitude of synth sounds and instrumentation resulting in a one-of-a-kind performance that should not be missed.
