Jive Bag is a five-piece band that plays New Orleans-influenced funk and contemporary jazz.
The instrumentation is the same as Papa Grows funk: drums, bass, rhythm guitar, Hammond organ, and saxophone. Other bands that influence the sound of Jive Bag include The Meters, the Neville Brothers, Dumpstaphunk, and more. Jive Bag plays feel-good and exciting music that is groove oriented.
The music is primarily instrumental, and it includes many original compositions as well as familiar tunes.
Jive Bag has opened for the famous New Orleans pianist Marcia Ball, played at the Betty Jayne Brimmer Center
in Peoria Heights, Jazz UpFront in Bloomington and several venues in Champaign Urbana.
