About Liebermonster


Half-man, half monster? Perhaps, but we're not talking about any senators from Connecticut. Liebermonster, a dynamic project featuring the funky, creative work of five Front Range musicians, will have you growling for more. Liebermonster's sound fuses irresistible funk grooves with influences from rock, Latin, jazz and electronica. You might even catch the occasional Yiddish folk or video game lick, carried over from Liebermonster's diverse backgrounds. Saxophone player Brandon Barski fronts the band with cleverly crafted melodies and harmonies. Guitarist Shane Lieberman (the man behind the monster) wails, adding often unexpected layers to the sound. Eric Bloom (keys), Jonathan Barkin (bass), and Josh Gordon (drums) lock it in to form Liebermonster's tight, hard-driving rhythm section. Since opening for acclaimed funk group Soulive in May 2009, Liebermonster has brought raving audiences in Colorado to their feet.
