Amsterdam-born trumpeter/composer Saskia Laroo and her husband, US pianist/composer Warren Byrd, will bring an original Sunday Funk with their Jazzy Dance Quartet, creating feel-good grooves for all ages and cultures.
With an eclectic repertoire, which includes their own captivating originals, this quartet is a testament to the evolution of jazz, seamlessly mixing authentic jazz sensibilities with today's contemporary grooves.

Laroo's own record label, Laroo Records, has released eight albums since 1994, including an LP "Trumpets Around The World" (2019) and a DVD "Live In Zimbabwe" (2014).
Byrd, a self-produced artist with his album "Truth Raised Twice" (2000), met Laroo in 2001, joining her on many recordings and performances.

Together, they also lead Duo Laroo/Byrd and released "Two Of A Kind, A Tribute To Miles & Monk" (2011).

The Laroo/Byrd Funky4 expands on this Duo, bringing organic, jazzy dance grooves to get you moving.
