Description:

Released in 2004 on Now-Again Records, “The Badger” by Connie Price & The Keystones is a modern deep-funk anthem rooted in vintage sound. The project — led by multi-instrumentalist and producer Dan Ubick — channels the energy of classic late-60s instrumental funk with pounding drums, gritty organ riffs, and punchy brass lines, performed live to analog tape.

The B-side, “Sweet Soul Music (Part 2),” continues the groove with cinematic flair, recalling the stylings of The Meters and The J.B.’s while adding a contemporary edge.

“The Badger” has become a crate-digger favorite among DJs and break collectors, appearing on various funk compilations and used in sync contexts for TV and film trailers seeking authentic retro rhythm textures. It’s often cited as a highlight of the early-2000s deep-funk revival movement spearheaded by labels like Now-Again and Daptone.
