Butcher Brown, Cosmic Collective at The Annex

Every Wednesday and Thursday
April 12 2025

10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
The Annex 2500 Church Street, Unit A Norfolk, VA 23517 Price: $22 / Day Of : $27
LAVA Presents:
Saturday, April 12, 2025 at The Annex
Butcher Brown and The Cosmic Collective
“So, what kind of music do you make?” This question is the bane of every musician’s existence because it requires that they shrink down the wide expanse of their creativity to an easily
(mis)understood genre description. No matter how vivid or elaborate the description, “show” will always be more powerful than “tell.” The words we use to describe music don’t encapsulate what the listener’s experiences as much as give context clues. That’s why Butcher Brown – the multifaceted band from Richmond, Virginia – call their sound and their follow up to 2020’s #KingButch and their second release on Concord Jazz, Solar Music. “Solar music” is not simply a description; it’s an invitation to listen and an invitation to feel.
Friends and bandmates Corey Fonville (drums), Andrew Randazzo, (bass), Morgan Burrs (guitar), Marcus “Tennishu” Tenney, (trumpet, saxophone, vocals) and Devonne “DJ Harrison” Harris (multi-instrumentalist) make music that is as diverse as their own varied tastes and backgrounds. It’s a seamlessly blended amalgam of sounds including jazz, hip-hop, rock, funk, R&B, alternative, soul, country, house, bossa nova, pop, and more. “We are the melting pot. We are the mix,” says Devonne. “I feel like that’s what we represent and that’s what this album represents.”

Sunsquabi, Natalie Brookes at The Annex

Every Wednesday and Thursday
April 9 2025

10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
The Annex 2500 Church Street, Unit A Norfolk, VA 23517 Price: Tickets $22 advance // $27 day of show
LAVA Presents
Sunsquabi and Natalie Brooke

Music has the power to move us—literally, figuratively, and spiritually. It motivates us to rise above the challenges of our daily lives and, on a larger scale, face the world’s struggles. Through an unspoken sonic communion between three distinct musical identities, SunSquabi—Kevin Donohue [guitar, keys, production], Josh Fairman [bass, synth], and Scotty Zwang [drums]—ignite action and inspiration with their signature live electronica sound. With millions of streams and electrifying performances at iconic venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre, they’re pushing boundaries with each release. Following their acclaimed Cloudburst EP, they’re ready to inspire listeners again with their latest project, the Grind EP, showcasing a new era for the band.

SunSquabi’s latest work reflects their journey and resilience. The Cloudburst EP and the upcoming Grind EP continue to embody the band’s commitment to creating an uplifting, groovy, and soulful experience. In the end, SunSquabi’s mission remains the same: to elevate spirits and encourage listeners to rise above any obstacles in their path
