Based in Chicago, FuzZz has been making crowds groove since mid-2011. The five-piece funk band merges heavy influences from the Meters, James Brown, and the Greyboy Allstars with strains of Jaco Pastorius and Stevie Wonder to create sounds infused with driving vamps, energetic blues progressions, and fiery solos. The group has made appearances all over their fair city and have traveled as far as New Orleans to play their blend of distinctive originals and reinvented covers, which can be heard on their debut album released in June 2013.

These three musicians came together to be Black Partridge organically, and basically by accident.  A mutual adoration for acoustic music and genre stretching, it became clear at once that these three intuitive craftsmen were going to be making some special music.  They have known each other for years, all centering their musicianship in the fertile creative ground that is 'The Heart of Roger’s Park’ in the northeast corner of Chicago.  Black Partridge gets intimate, honest, and traditional in the music they present, then they flip the night on its head, and the vibe becomes a party, pushing funky jams on 16 strings.  These three enjoy sharing their original music as much as they enjoy playing the tunes you love.
