11 tracks from How Now Brown Cow with Special Guests recorded live & improvised 10-16-10 at The Musicquarium Lounge (Seattle WA).

How Now Brown Cow is an all improv groove jazz thang. If you love the funked up soul sound of the 70s, the jazzy grooves from the chase scenes from SWAT or the get down, phat soundtrack from Shaft then you will GET DOWN WITH BROWN. Often compared to Average White Band, Tower of Power, Miles Davis (Electric Band), Weather Report, Herbie Hancock & The Headhunters, and P-Funk, How Now Brown Cow have a sound that appeals to fans of jazz, funk, blues, soul and anything with a groove. How Now Brown Cow is Dave Kurtiak (bass), Marc Hager (keys), Donovan Pfeifer (drums), Brad Schrandt (sax and flute) and features special guests players regularly.

“HNBC sounds like Coltrane playing the theme song to CHiPs, mixing high art with ’70s camp. Throw in tasty samples and some cowbell, and, boy, you’re cookin’ up a party. Bowmp chicka bowmp bow.”

— Mark Thomas Deming, The Weekly Volcano ... more

about

Dave Kurtiak Seattle, Washington

There is something about the low sub-sonic feeling of bass that has and will always amaze me.

My influences and background are as varied as my playing. Some of my favorites include a list of who's who on bass - Michael Manring, Jaco, Rocco Prestia, Stu Hamm, Stanley Clarke, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, and so many others.

My current projects include How Now Brown Cow and A Modest Menagerie. ... more
