“An innovative blend of jazz funk and reggae fusion that epitomises the evocative and distinctive sound that is Fibro Lounge’s trademark"
A successful solo pianist/vocalist in his own right, Andrew Funnell has pulled together an outstanding outfit that commands attention. Combine evolution, inspired sound, committed devotion to creating ‘real’ music and, a sizeable portion of passion and, what you get, is something profoundly effective.
Their collective industry experience more than speaks for itself when you look at the success of previous individual and collective collaborations such as Hoopsnake and the supports they have performed with INXS, Allnighters, Christine Anu and Wendy Matthews to name but a few. |

Their latest creation Fibro Lounge is more than a lounge experience in every sense. Rhythmically interesting, lyrically thought provoking, perfect timing and emotive vocals – its blatantly obvious there is an inexplicable joy in the creation and craftsmanship of their songs. Their upcoming debut release ‘futureproof’, showcases Fibro Lounge’s undeniable talent and makes a big statement; proving they definitely deserve a place alongside the best in the business. Their genre may not quite fit into any particular set groove - from ballads, to edgy jazz funk and reggae fusion – but that’s not the point ………. it always suits the mood; plus, it’s got genuine emotion and conviction and is a breath of fresh air from the monotony of prefabricated music.
An
eclectic mix of enormous professional talent and impeccable musicianship,
Fibro Lounge is collectively some of the most imaginative and
original yet understated talent to be found in the industry today; and,
when you’re drawing on some of the greatest musicians/artists of our
time past and present as your influence, from Miles Davis and Bob Marley
to Ben Harper and John Legend, then you can only be off to a strong start.
Add to this, Fibro Lounge’s effortless ability to create ‘real’ music that’s original, fresh, expressive and that speaks for itself; plus, it’s got that all important impulsive dynamic – you physically feel and experience it! By combining their lyrically compelling songs and sheer musical ability, not only do they possess the gift to captivate and become intimate with their audience, they reach their soul.
Funnell’s agile voice, whilst refining it through the traditions of jazz and reggae, has mature sophistication, grit and that all desired grunt; combine this with his striking lyrics and music, this is not only a testament to his undeniable talent but, expresses his ability to produce genuine music through his collaborative nature.
It’s simple: it’s about hanging out and feelin' the groove, with Fibro Lounge you’ll know exactly where to sit. |

Music is such a part of our emotional makeup - it can make you patriotic, it can make you want to fight, it can make you want to cry" Reproduced with the kind permission of Jimmy Barnes from his book Say It Loud |
