Analog Rewind at Artpark featuring Ansley Court

 

Mike and Joe from Ansley Court. Thank you Kevin.

Flow Tribe from New Orleans is "Ready to Light the Fuse!!" at Buffalo Iron Works on August 25th!

This high energy FUNKY ROCK band from the Crescent City (aka New Orleans)...is just what the Doctor ordered to cure what ails you and get you dancing!!!🕺

Known for their high energy live show, brings their traveling street parade with them to every concert. Relix Magazine called Flow Tribe “bizarrely irresistible.”

Flow Tribe is a Funky band from New Orleans and known for turning concerts into a "traveling street parade" full of carnival energy. A heavy-groove mix of funk, rock, R&B, jazz, and hip-hop featuring dual guitars, a tight rhythm section, and a blasting horn/washboard section.

Founded in 2004, Flow Tribe was solidified in the wake of Hurricane Katrina's destruction with the mission to bring the next generation of the New Orleans' sound of unstoppable rhythm and passion to the world. The next 21 years would find Flow Tribe performing over 120 shows a year crossing the country multiple times from the biggest festival stages to the nicest venues.

Flow Tribe is set to hit the stage and "Light The Fuse" as K.C. O'Rorke, (lead vocalist and trumpet player in the band) told me in the recent interview I had with him last week. We talked about their upcoming show at Buffalo Iron Works on August 25th, & their new album release, "Unleashed: Live at French Quarter Fest 2026" and what we all can expect to see and hear at the much anticipated Buffalo SHOW!

Thank you to K.C O'Rorke for taking the time to chat all about the bands history and what they are about! Thank you also to our sponsor, Buffalo Iron Works for helping to make this possible!

I enjoyed learning about the band and their unique sound and how they are looking to bring their FRESH FUNKY SOUL LIFTING MUSIC to Buffalo Iron Works on August 25th!
