Edit history

Baron Samadhi is an 8 piece party band from Melbourne. The sound is a dangerously spicy blend of disco, soul, dancehall, funk and jazz thrown in a pot and boiled until the lid bursts off. Baron Samadhi is originally from Canberra, where they grew from a "joke" funk band in 2000; to local infamy over two years. The Baron enjoyed huge popularity, consistently pulling over 400 fans to witness their outrageous onstage antics and over the top Porn Funk. At the beginning of 2003, the boys all moved permanently to the fertile live music grounds of Melbourne. Starting from scratch, the Baron set about aggressively infiltrating the scene, using highly questionable methods to secure gigs (Including sending menacing black dildos to recalcitrant bookers). The hard work paid off, with the band securing major supports (with such acts as the Brown Hornet, Pornland, the Groove Collective, Butterfingers, the Bumblebeez, TZU, and MC Trey) and headlining shows at most of the premier venues in
