Forming as recently in Summer 2020, to then subsequently selling out their first debut show at Hare & Hounds in Birmingham in November 2021, Metz Jnr Band have taken crowds by absolute surprise.
Coined by Danny Reybekill from Brum Radio as “A weird and wonky incarnation parachuting through.” & by BBC Introducing WM as “Absolutely Brilliant, different. Birmingham’s one of a kind”.
After several years already working as a full-time professional musician, Metz Jnr realised it was now time to bring his album to life, and believed it required an outfit of the Midlands’ finest multi-genre alongside him to manifest its true potential.
Metz Jnr Band are lighting up the scene, bringing us those feel great vibrations! A Midlands-based six piece powerhouse of tasty grooves & thought proving lyricism, makes a stand for a higher path of self-love, unity and togetherness.
Launching an energetic performance of powerful, conscious & funky-reggae, fused with intelligent elements of jazz, soul ska & world music combined to create a distinguished formula that remedies a unique but true-to-Brummie sound that lift your spirit and gets you on your feet.
During the global pandemic, with time on their side, the band focused their creativity on performing in and around the confides of ever-transitioning U.K laws surrounding the live music scene.
When music in venues were no longer allowed, they hired out venues and performed for online music festivals LIVE. When festivals weren’t setting up for the Summer, they performed for retro camping retreats & outdoor pop ups. And when the public couldn’t go to a concert… Metz Jnr Band brought the concert to the people, right in the heart of the city streets, filling the air with sounds of love & hope.
