DANCE IT UP with The Macrotones-- blazing horns meet mighty hooks for a progressive mix fit to fill any dancefloor.

"Masters of the city's afrobeat movement”

The band’s tightly-honed grooves and infectious sound has shared the stage with like-minded practitioners such as Lee Fields & the Expressions, Durand Jones & the Indications, the Budos Band, Grupo Fantasma, Orgone, Ikebe Shakedown, and Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars. Since typical genre descriptions fail to fully capture the scope of the Macrotones’ sound, new monikers need exploration: imperial funk, astrobeat, or even “a soundtrack for spies” all fit.

"Straight-up filthy funk"
-Vanyaland

A new era for the band began in 2019 when friend and occasional guest vocalist Phil Desisto joined full time. Phil's commanding and gritty vocals, drawing comparisons to Bobby Womack, saw the band embrace more classic soul sounds from the '60s and '70s, while retaining their edgy funk.
