Description

Gitkin’s music has always lived between places. A lush, intoxicating blend of global soul, surf noir, psychedelic funk, desert blues, and twang, his sound is shaped by the kind of musical cross-pollination that happens in cities where cultures overlap and boundaries blur. Dub echo chambers, deep funk pockets, modal melodies, analog haze, and guitars that slither through the mix like snakes through a desert bazaar all come together in a sound that feels cinematic, mysterious, and deeply human.

 

New Orleans-based Gitkin, also known as Brian J. Gitkin, is a Grammy-nominated artist and producer renowned for his work with Cedric Burnside, Bab L’ Bluz, Bernard Purdie, Cyril Neville, and Art Neville, as well as the mastermind behind the internationally beloved funk ensemble Pimps Of Joytime. What began as a passion project has grown into a distinctive musical world of its own, with monthly streams surpassing 300,000 and his self-produced albums resonating with listeners across continents.
