At a Glance: The best rhythm section in Boston. Period. They are masters of all styles of music, but when it comes to laying down the Funk…nobody does it better. Members of this group have performed throughout the world with such high profile artists as Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Rick James, Lauren Hill, Roberta Flack, the Wu Tang Clan, Jimmy Cliff, Brian McKnight, Maceo Parker, T-Bone Burnett, and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. Members have also performed on the Tonight Show, MTV, Saturday Night Live and Conan O’Brian.
Track Record: Flipside has been featured in a front page spread of The Living Art section of The Boston Globe as “The Toast of the Town” and have performed live on The Fox-25 Morning News. Flipside has performed at weddings for high profile clients, including Jack Welch (CEO of General Electric) & Suzy Wetlaufer, and Elizabeth Filarski (The View / Survivor), NFL quarterback Tim Hassleback, Tom Finneran (mass speaker of the house). They are one of the only groups to perform live on the field at Boston’s Fenway Park with members of the Red Sox and their wives. They were also the band of choice for fundraisers such as The Steppingstone Foundation Gala “Steppin’ out”, Beacon Hill Civic Association Gala, American Heart Association’s “Heartball”, Launch party for Boston Common Magazine and Boston Ballet 50th Anniversary Gala as well as Governor Deval Patrick’s 50th Birthday celebration (featuring famed cellist Yo Yo Ma) as well as his inaugural ball. |
