You know, it's OK that Chesterfield's self-titled LP has been out for over 18 months and we're just now listening - It's got timeless qualities, both lyrically and compositionally, that give this one some seriously funky, get-on-the-good-foot legs.
Filled to the brim with head-bobbingly-good soul & funk numbers; powered by a rock-solid rhythm section and topped with spot-on horns that, we're sure, even the Godfather of Soul would approve of; this release is proof positive that there's some good funk still to be had in this town. And Chesterfield's got the bag.

"With a cool, classic style and tough modern edge, Chesterfield is a groovin' seven-piece soul-funk muthaship outta Austin, Texas. Live, they mash up a rare storm of horn-driven Texadelic rock and bad ass chooglin' fonk. Hip, hep, tight an' taut. Cool as f*ck. Yeah." - The Phoenix Saloon- Ross Fortune, owner

Bio
From a mutual love of Soul, Funk and R&B music Chesterfield was born- We're a hard hitting, dynamic group, straight out of Austin Texas, that infuses our Soul Roots with elements of Funk, Rock, Dance, Synth, Jazz, & Blues. We are truely a melting pot of style and sound and refuse to set boundaries or limits to where our music can go.
Our goal is to create, write, & perfrom music that connects to an audience & moves people. Whether that means moving them spiritually or just moving them to the dance floor, I'm not sure, but as long as we're moving them somehow we'll take it!
We are truely honored and blessed to be a part of the amazing community of artists, bands, and musicians, here in Austin, & we hope to continue making music here for years to come!
