Porky's Groove Machine is the intergalactic ambassador of Wisconsin’s silliest nerd funk. Since forming in the fall of 2011 in Appleton, we’ve spent five years playing around Wisconsin, toured the Midwest and East Coast twice, even opening for Guster at Indianapolis’s Old Egyptian Room! With a three-piece horn section and percussionist on top of a traditional rock rhythm section, our mature musicality but not-so-mature humor has been described by Julian Loida of Bloomington, Indiana's WIUX as "the vibe of the B-52's and the Flaming Lips combined with the sound of Phish, G. Love and Special Sauce, and New Orleans music." Releases include "Porkus" (2017), our 2016 presidential campaign platform, “Make America Funk Again”, "Magic Brunch" (May 2014) and "This Would Be A Great Present For My Grandma” (2011).
