Expect a high-energy set that blends deep-pocket funk, soulful grooves, and lush Hammond organ ballads from this modern funk organ trio. With masterful chops and a fresh, forward-thinking approach, Sam Fribush pushes the organ trio sound into bold new territory.

Fribush says, “My intention is to take this music into the future. I’m trying to expand the rules about what organ trio music is.”

ABOUT THE MUSICIAN

Keyboardist Sam Fribush is on the frontlines of the Hammond organ revival. His debut release ‘Sam Fribush Trio, Vol. 1: Riverboat’ was produced by Charlie Hunter and recorded in North Carolina. The trio’s recent record ‘People Please’ was released March 15th, 2024. Over the past few years, Fribush has established himself as one of the country’s hottest young bandleaders and ‘People Please’ expands upon the trio’s deep affinity for crispy, wah-wah driven funk, hip-hop beats and sultry B3 ballads. In 2025, he stepped out with DTF (Adam Deitch, Ari Teitel and Sam Fribush) to release ‘Another Side of the Sound’ and put his stamp on the modern funk organ trio.

Born in Greensboro, NC to a musical family, Fribush began his professional career at a young age, playing a variety of instruments including Steel Pan and Banjo.
“To me, Fribush epitomizes the old soul with a youthful spirit. Having grown up immersed in the sounds of everything from Dr. John to Tommy Jarrell, his musical sensibility has an incredibly intuitive flow, and his touch on the piano has always been beautifully unique. With that much natural talent, he wouldn’t necessarily have had to push himself to the limits he has, and it’s been a wonder to witness his evolution into one of the greatest working organ and keyboard players today. His sincerity cuts straight through every note he plays, with a heartfelt smile and mischief-tinged eyes, and his presence in any room feels like a big hug.” – Ric Robertson
