Sativa Gumbo
Band Biography

  • From: Louisville, KY
  • No. of Members: 4
  • Year Established: 1997

Sativa Gumbo is a four-piece (Piano, Bass, Drums, and Guitar) jam band based in Southern Indiana. SG has been playing in the Louisville, Kentucky area since 1997 and frequently appears at The Bluegrass Brewing Company, The Rudyard Kipling, The Hideaway, Headliners, Longshots, and The Lighthouse. SG's music is an eclectic blend of funk, southern rock, bluegrass, reggae, rhythm and blues, and follows the great tradition of jam bands in twisting and bending musical genres.

A raucous blend of Bill Payne and Dr. John inspired piano/organ-playing mixes well with guitar licks reminiscent of Duane Allman and Carlos Santana. The guitar and keys float on the rhythm section, which is led by the genetic anomaly of Vic Wooten and Mike Gordon's bass child and founded on rhythms inspired by Billy Cobham and Carter Beauford. The four diverse songwriters and three singers in this band allow SG to transcend traditional music genres, leaving the listener failing to find an adequate way to describe their music.

SG has developed a substantial following in the Louisville area by continually providing an amazing live music experience to its fans. Despite not having released an album, SG's live recordings are widely circulated among tapers and live music lovers and provide an intimate glimpse at what SG does best . SG usually attracts a crowd of 200 or more in Louisville.
