Liebermonster
Half-man, half monster? Perhaps, but we’re not talking about any senators from Connecticut. Liebermonster, a dynamic project featuring the funky, creative work of six Front Range musicians, will have you growling for more. Liebermonster’s sound fuses irresistible funk grooves with influences from rock, Latin, and electronica. You might even catch the occasional Yiddish folk or video game lick, carried over from the band’s members’ diverse backgrounds. Saxophone player Brandon Barski and trumpeter Joel Greco front the band with cleverly crafted melodies and harmonies. Guitarist Shane Lieberman (the man behind the monster) wails, adding often unexpected layers to the sound. Eric Bloom (keys), Jonathan Barkin (bass), and Tim Dennis (drums) lock it in to form Liebermonster’s tight, hard-driving rhythm section. Since opening for acclaimed funk band Soulive in May 2009, Liebermonster has brought raving audiences in Colorado to their feet.
