Scary Pockets & Frankfurt Radio Big Band — Frankfurt, 2023

Live full concert filmed of the funk collective Scary Pockets backed by the Frankfurt Radio Big Band (hr-Bigband), as part of the “Live + Mastered” series released in 2023. Led by guitarist Ryan Lerman, Scary Pockets — known for their virtuosic funk covers — revisit a broad pop and rock repertoire with big-band arrangements. The concert opens in a reduced line-up (“I Feel It Coming,” “If I Ain’t Got You,” “The Way You Make Me Feel,” “Come Together,” “Bennie and the Jets”) before the Frankfurt Radio Big Band joins for large-format versions (“Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go,” “Halo,” “Stayin’ Alive,” “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger,” “Wonderwall”), enhanced with brass solos. A live capture, carefully mixed and mastered, ideal for fans of funk, big band and reorchestrated covers.
