Zirgwe

Zirgwe is a funkadelic fusion quintet based out of Fort Collins, CO. The band derives influences from artists such as Lettuce, Soulive, Weather Report, Hiatus Kayote, John Scofield, and Phish. Most members are from the east coast originally, but they were brought together through the vibrant FoCo music scene. The band got their start after an epic late night jam session in Andrew’s (the drummer’s) garage. Thus, Zirgwe was born. Soon after their formation, Brendan, known for his funky slap style on the baritone guitar, and Donald, for his epic storytelling and expressive vocal melodies, joined the band. As individuals, the members have performed with artists such as Pipin’ Hot, Veronica May, Haralson Four, Lovetet, Das Wunder Band, and The Trichomes.
