the Broun Fellinis at California Jazz Conservatory

Formed 1991 in San Francisco, The Broun Fellinis play a soulful and aggressive style of post modern improvised/composed jazzical sound that is informed by dub, Afrobeat, abstract funk, hardcore/psych/prog rock and film soundtracks (the darker and more atmospheric the better). Featuring Kevin Carnes on drums and sampler (Beatnigs, UAF), David Boyce on tenor and soprano saxophone, efx, synth, and spoken word, and Kirk Peterson on electric bass.

The group has been profiled on NPR and BET in the US and on Radio Nova in France. They’ve traveled to Spain to perform at the San Sebastian International Jazz Festival and to British Columbia for the du Maurier festival. Other festival appearances include the San Francisco Jazz Festival, Stern Grove Festival in SF, the Bumbershoot Festival in Seattle and more. Broun Fellinis have toured with Ben Harper and performed with many greats such as The Last Poets, Meshell Ndegeocello, Living Colour, Erykah Badu, the Roots, Mos Def, Gil Scott-Heron, Zakir Hussain, Bernie Worrell, Eric McFadden, George Clinton, Mystic Journeymen, Jimmy Smith, Prince Lasha, Les Claypool, Buckethead, Aceyalone, Mikah 9, Antibalas, Blackalicious, General Public, Ravi Coltrane, Eric McFadden, 311 and more....
