The Third Coast Kings are an eight element proper deep funk and soul outfit from Detroit/Ann Arbor, Michigan, that draws influence from the great James Brown, as well as the many artists from the 60s and 70s whose music was carefully salvaged by the crate digging revolution. Most importantly, Third Coast Kings make it a point to remain true to the style and technique of playing proper deep funk and soul to a live audience that might otherwise only be heard on dusty 45s.
