Le Di\u00e8se Onze vibrated to the guitar riffs, the pumping bass, the melodies of the brass, the power of the drums, the irresistible syncopations of the ensemble, and of course the fiery presence of the absolute leader Alan Prater. Ah, what we would give to relive that experience, even just once! Trust me: The Brooks at Di\u00e8se Onze &#8211; The Return, you would have to book months in advance!

Because The Brooks is currently THE brand of classic funk all over the planet! Proof of this is their performance at the Rio das Ostras Jazz Festival (near Rio), where the band is proudly associated with the Montreal brand. We thank them for it! It&#8217;s pure The Brooks: inflexible beats but impeccably smooth, perfect wah wahs on the guitar, enticing swagger, and Prater&#8217;s charismatic presence. The brass gleams, the rhythm section pulses, and the guitars convert even the most reluctant (whoever they may be!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Other good funk bands currently exist: Dumpstaphunk, Ghost-Note (more jazz), Vulfpeck (more disco), and several others.
