BIO

Cozmic Sauce is a collaboration of seasoned musicians from around the globe, based in the Pacific NW, with a bright, modern, and unique sound.  It's a powerful, horn-driven, irresistibly danceable blend of funk and soul inspired grooves with sparkling vocals and compelling arrangements.

In 2017, the band's leader, bassist Steven Pearson, originally from London but now based near Bellingham, Washington, met drummer Jim Dunstone, also coincidentally a London native, and the Brit pair began assembling a group of accomplished musicians to perform music that nobody else around here is playing.  

With up to five horns leading rousing instrumental numbers, mixed with tunes featuring the vocals of the phenomenally talented Carrie Bieber, the band throws down an exciting and diverse live show every time.   

 

Drawing on modern funk and groove sounds from the likes of The New Mastersounds, Speedometer, The Bamboos, and Galactic, and weirdly influenced by 70s cop show theme music, the group has a growing following and a reputation for tight arrangements, quality musicianship, and high energy shows.

All the players in the group have broad stage experience, with various members having performed in bands with luminaries including soul queen Etta James, gigged with up and coming Seattle reggae artist Adrian Xavier, toured with reggae and rock steady giant Winston Jarrett, made multiple appearances at the internationally famous Burning Man event in Nevada, and have opened for the legendary BB King.  With performances at the wildly fun Strange BrewFest in Port Townsend, the prestigious Blaine Harbor Music Festival, and the Washington Brewers Festival at Seattle's Marymoor Park, the state's largest brewfest, Cozmic Sauce is gaining attention and gigs throughout the Northwest and beyond.
