About the Band
Muscle Tough,
Muscle Tough, Philadelphia’s premier Futuristic Funk Fusion trio, specializes in a heavily improvised blend of modal jazz, funk, and rocking psychedelia.
Their creative use of sound design and group-minded improvisation blurs the line between their originals and the quirky pop classics they stretch out on.
TOO Tough 2 Tough (2026) finds Muscle Tough doubling down on their signature brand of psychedelic mayhem. A deep dive into the trio’s ever-expanding sonic universe, the album careens between rubbery funk grooves, mind-bending harmonic detours, explosive rock energy, and intricate rhythmic labyrinths. Equal parts precision and beautiful chaos, these tracks showcase three musicians pushing each other into increasingly unpredictable territory, where the fun is king and absolutely nothing is off limits.
With a revolving door of guests including members of Phish, MMW, Dopapod, Lotus, Snarky Puppy, and DJ Logic, along with a reputation for their sprawling late-night sets, Muscle Tough invites audiences around the world to GET TOUGH!
