Brett Marshall Lefferts MUSICIAN
is an emerging electronic musician, fusing funk grooves with acoustic folk instrumentation over a lush scape of digital noise; a style he calls funkfoltronica. Brett is a trained classical flutist, a self-taught guitarist and pianist, and a lover of a gritty synth sweep and persuasive drum sequence. His album Just Be has received radio air play at WMUA 91.1 Amherst and has been used in dance classes and performances at JACOB'S PILLOW DANCE FESTIVAL in MA, as well as DANCESPACE and WAX in NYC. Brett's music has been described as "the union of wonder and majesty. One is carried along its harmonies, calmed and yet encouraged. The songs from Just Be resonate within, long after they have been turned off and wandered away from." Brett's "Threshold of a Dream," from Just Be, was a runner-up in the electronic category of the 2002 John Lennon Songwriting Contest.
