Born in Birmingham, Alabama now split between New York City.
Downright is as much an experience as it is a band. Downright has been called everything from soulful to ferocious, and they cover all points in between. A duo of musicians drawing from varied musical backgrounds, these boys surround themselves with a talented roster of musicians and take an audience for a musical trip into DOWNRIGHT country (where nothing is quite as it seems). Their sound combines elements of funk, psychedelic rock, wild improv and soul music to create a unique blend that goes down smooth and always satisfies. Downright has been regularly working around the music circuit since 1999. Various instrumental combinations are used at every Downright show, such as guitars, organs, string bass, electric pianos, theremin, drums, horns, you name it!
"Downright arose like a misty mountain fog from the Southern United States of America to claim it's rightful place in the pantheon of musical juggernauts. You too can lay claim to your rightful place in the pantheon of Downright faithful. Go ahead, make their day."
