Richmond, Virginia's Butcher Brown are a proud throwback to the progressive jazz-funk bands of the 1970s with a 21st century twist. Their sound joins modern jazz to hip-hop, garage punk, and future funk. All Purpose Music appeared in 2014, followed a year later by Grown Folk. The Healer and Live at Vagabond appeared in 2017. Concord signed Butcher Brown for 2020's #KingButch, as well as 2022's Butcher Brown Presents Triple Trey featuring Tennishu and R4ND4ZZO BIGB4ND. Written as a hip-hop record, it evolved during the recording process into an eclectic ode to big-band jazz. 2023's Solar Music included guest spots by Keyon Harrold, Braxton Cook, Nappy Nina, Charlie Hunter, and others. Following global touring, they re-entered the studio with a cavalcade of guests to record 2025's Letters from the Atlantic.
