the word from the venue
Sonic Fuze brings their debut single “ Red ” to Bar 303 with an electrifying blend of jazz, funk, and fusion. Formed during the 2020–21 lockdown by brothers Lyndon and Lachie Riggs on saxophone and drums (often mistaken for twins!), the project has since evolved into a dynamic six-piece united by a shared love of jazz, improvisation, and groove. The launch at Bar 303 celebrates the release of “ Red ” , marking the start of an exciting new chapter, with more original music and a debut album on the horizon. The Payback are a sextet of young and eager working musicians based in Naarm/Melbourne, recreating the timeless sounds of the funk, soul and blues greats, including James Brown, The Meters, Jimmy Smith, Donny Hathaway, Betty Davis and many more.
