Jazz
Baba Fats
Baba Fats
Jazz
Baba Fats is a 7-piece band based out of the Chequamegon Bay in northern Wisconsin. Previously described as "the furthest thing from classic rock in the North Woods", their music blends styles from Afro-beat to contemporary jazz. The sound could best be described as instrumental, groove music with some room to stretch out. It's the band's goal to consistently put on a fun, great sounding live show that is engaging to audiences and artistically honest.
Baba Fats began to take form somewhere around the year 2019. Several members had worked together in other groups prior - notably Paul's Bunyan, The Rags and the Northland College Big Band. From time to time they will appear as a slimmed down iteration of the band dubbed "Baba Lite".

Fusion

Fusion
Started in the summer of 2024, this project is Sachio Nang’s full blown vision of the perfect mix of jazz, funk, fusion, rock, and gospel. With a 5 piece horn section, and tunes that are equal parts groovy as infectiously catchy, Mid-Air delivers with electric solos, immaculate grooves, and thrilling live arrangements.
Sachio Nang started recording music in mid 2018, gradually upping his production value as he expanded his skills, eventually leading to his most recent release, a full blown jazz funk/fusion album entitled “Portraits”, in which he played Saxophones, Flutes, Clarinets, Guitars, Bass, Keys, and Drums, but also composed, arranged, mixed, and mastered all of tracks. An avid multi-instrumentalist, Sachio is never afraid to challenge not only himself, but the musicians around him.
Blending both old and new musical sensibilities, Mid-Air will certainly have something for everyone. Constantly pushing the boundaries of genre, Mid-Air can execute anything from a prog-rock tune to melt your face off, or even a reggae chart to kick back and relax to.
