But that's just a basic overview of what the multi-talented, eclectic Dawn Weber brings to every performance. The St. Louis-based artist has a background that includes extensive training in both classical trumpet and flugelhorn. But Dawn's talent and personality really shine in other styles of her music– ranging from jazz, rock, R&B swing and salsa to hip-hop, electronic and funk styles. Dawn starred in the groups Vargas Swing, Urban Jazz Naturals and Mo and Dawn (The Remix Project) and is now leading her own bands.

The larger version of Dawn's Electro Funk Assembly brings it with an explosive, high-energy show! The full EFA group features a live drummer, bassist, keyboard player and guitarist supporting Dawn's vocals and trumpet -- fused with an electronic blend bubbling under. You'll hear original music blending house music, funk, hip-hop, and electronica elements that will make you get down and move your body! You'll have a blast!

The smaller, three-piece EFA Lounge band offers a more sophisticated approach adding classic hits– performed in Dawn's unique style – to the musical mix. Dawn's EFA trio creates a high-energy blend of jazz, Latin, and funk grooves with electronic elements to create great dance music that flows non-stop!

Drawing upon influences from musical groups such as Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, The Roots and John Legend the band creates their own eclectic “pop” sound. Connecting the body, mind, and spirit, Fresh Heirs' music keeps their audiences moving while they deliver meaningful words of encouragement in harmony over a high-energy musical platform featuring blazing keys and rippin' horn lines.

Fresh Heir has been putting on high-energy performances since 2007. Originally a 5- piece ensemble the band now can extend 10+ pieces. Meeting at Webster University (St. Louis, MO) in the jazz studies program, their beginning sound featured instrumental originals & covers similar to groove/jam artists like Soulive, RH Factor, and Charlie Hunter. Evolving, the band added vocals to the energy and began writing positive inspired lyrics in 2009 as showcased on their "Alive Around The World" and "Sky's The Limit" albums.

Nick Savage and Ryan Marquez have remained the band's core founders, as membership has been fluid through the years. The current configuration has been together for 5 years and features a cast of the regions top players. FH now operates similar to Steely Dan, in that it always features Savage & Marquez but integrates the other members to create the sound most appropriate for the request at hand.

The group has experience playing in different configurations all over the world as one can see in their videos. FH can jam an acoustic setup with 2-5 people or can produce a full-scale production featuring 10+ members utilizing high-level audio/video production skills.
