About Me

Bret Puchir has been sneaking into the smoke-filled jazz and blues clubs of New York City since the age of fourteen, sitting in with musical legends and quietly creating a name for himself in the world of blues.
Ten years later, he's pioneering a new musical genre he's appropriately calling, "Crunk Funk." His journey started in the Bronx, where Puchir mingled with DJ's, MC's, and church musicians, who sparked new musical interests in him stemming from Jazz, Blues, Hip-Hop, Funk, and even world music. Creatively fusing these genres together has resulted in his unique and refreshing sound. Puchir produced, recorded, and played on the record, while various studio musicians were brought in to capture the essence of his tunes.It will not let a funk lover down! From the soulful south to the urban street this record represents a blend of Old School and New School.
THE NEW CD WILL BE RELEASED THIS SUMMER 08"!! ITS GONNA FUNK YOU UP!
