Real Don Music, the ongoing experiment of inveterate weirdo and serial bandleader Kirk Huffman (Gatsbys American Dream, Kay Kay & His Weathered Underground, Wild Orchid Children, Co-Producer Portugal. The Man "Censored Colors" etc.) calls upon his copious experiences and influences to channel a horn laden and synth layered psychedelic Trip-Hop & Acid Jazz, Steely Dan on Stones Throw pop sound he confidently calls his own. Named after the genius singer-songwriter of Sesame Street, the eternally frustrated, occasionally masochistic pianist known as Don Music, Huffman's lyrical themes of light and darkness run thematic to the Muppets wild mood swings. One of Seattle's most unique and enigmatic acts, Huffman operates as an autonomous force, free from the obligatory and increasingly irrelevant cycles of the music industry, releasing songs and playing select club and festival dates when the mood strikes and flushes out the live act with synths, a trio of horns, drummer, percussionist and turntablist. Having recently released the first two singles: "Eyes On Me" & "Outlook Not So Good" from the forthcoming & long-anticipated 2025 full length LP "Pet Care: or The Righteous One Takes Care Of Their Animal", Huffman's striking album art, compelling videos and the music, composed and precise: weighted by heavy grooves and driven by moving melodies, continue his inventions and visions that push the limits of not only how a band can sound, but what it can look like and how it can operate.
