The Far Out

The Far Out is a funk and soul pop band from the north shore of Massachusetts. The six powerhouse musicians have been playing together since they were kids - learning and growing through shared experiences in jazz, theatre, a cappella, and orchestra. Now, they engage their audiences with high-energy grooves, lush vocals, and funky horn lines, supported by undeniable chemistry of a group of lifelong friends. Their goal is to include audiences in their infectious joy and spread the love of funk and soul music to younger generations.

Taking after the likes of Fleetwood Mac, Eagles, and Earth, Wind & Fire, The Far Out is stacked with multiple lead singers and songwriters. Their genre is a cohesion of their individual tastes and influences, brought together by a shared aim to entertain and inspire. You’ll often catch the group of multi-instrumentalists switching roles during their shows, passing guitars around or joining the horn section between vocal harmonies.

The group’s debut EP — self-titled, The Far Out — was named Indie Boulevard’s Best EP of 2023. In 2024, they followed up the award-winning EP with two explosive singles , “See Red (You’re Dead)” and “Packed to Go,” which have been featured or added on radio stations nationwide. The Far Out was also named New England Music Awards "New Act of the Year" for 2024.
