Randy Muller has a lot on his plate. This year will mark the highly anticipated release of “Welcome To My Life", which he describes as “a 360 degree representation of the music I've written, produced and have passionately enjoyed over the years. It ranges from Brazilian bossa, cool salsa, soulful mid-tempo soul to driving party-anthems.”

In addition, Muller plans to take his funk super-group, comprising some of the best New York based musicians, back on the road to re-invigorate his timeless classics originally recorded with Brass Construction in the 1970’s and ’80’s and still heard on dance floors and radio stations worldwide. 

Founder and leader of the chart topping R&B/Funk band Brass Construction, Randy's career as a recording artist, writer and arranger took root in the 1970s when he signed with United Artist Records (Liberty/EMI/Capital Records), a relationship which lasted almost a decade. Brass Construction's self-titled album debut, featuring the single "Movin'", resulted in outta -the-box platinum album sales and three consecutive gold albums. It catapulted the Brooklyn based funksters to global stardom. He went on to produce, write and publish several hits for the Salsoul/RCA, Capitol and Atlantic Records labels including Skyy’s gold-selling Skyyline album featuring “Call Me".
   
Today, Randy Muller's music can be heard in numerous television shows, movie soundtracks, video games such as Grand Theft Auto, UK’s Sainsburys and Amazon’s global Echo TV ad. His music has been sampled widely by Rap, hip-hop and R&B icons including, NWA, Too Short, The Bucket Heads, LiL' Kim, Salt n Peppa, Missy Elliot, DMX to Dr. Dre, P. Diddy Snoop Dogg (The Eastsidaz), Mariah Carey, Laurent Garnier and Gill Scott, to name a few.  

But, the stage has never been far from Randy’s heart. An accomplished musician, who still practices his craft with the intensity of a teenager, he loves the challenge of playing with great musicians while entertaining the crowd.  
   
“When people think of the great artists from the ’70’s and ’80’s — Earth, Wind & Fire, Parliament Funkadelic, James Brown, Prince — they think of two things, showmanship and musicianship” says Randy Muller. “That’s why we’re doing these shows and putting this music back out there. If you look at Bruno Mars’ success, you can see there’s a hunger for it. But equally it can’t just be an oldies set. It has to be new, vibrant and energetic.”  
   
Randy Muller knows what he’s talking about. As Brass Construction’s keyboardist, arranger, leader and frontman he filled stadiums and dance floors around the world in the 1970’s and ’80’s with classics such as "Movin’” , “Changin’”, “Ha Cha Cha”, “Walkin’ The Line”, "Music Makes You Feel Like Dancin'" and “Get Up To Get Down”.  As for his new show, Muller is unequivocal when discussing its musical format: “Funk, Funk & more Funk!” he says. The show will be comprised of all the big Brass Construction songs and other club anthems with a stage show to do his high tempo hits proud. Randy also plans to feature some of the newer material he has been releasing, from his studio group Brooklyn Soul Biscuits and his recent European smash, “Beautiful Feelin’” Featuring Carolyn Harding. “Just to show people I’m not resting on my laurels” he jokes.  
   
“When people come to a funk show, they want to see dancing, movement, energy.  They want razzmatazz, routines, old school theatrics. And that’s what we aim to give — along with a new, youthful confidence”. 
   
With shows planned across the UK and France, and some in the US, Muller intends to keep adding dates to satisfy demand, hopefully making the tour an ongoing event. “When you’re having the kind of fun we do on stage, why stop?” he says. Why indeed.  

Randy served on AIMP's Board of Directors (Association of Independent Music Publishers), ASCAP's East Coast Advisory Board, and as moderator for ASCAP’s R&B and Pop songwriter’s workshop. He is currently president of Plaza Records and remains at the helm of One To One Music Publishing, Alligator Music, Music 21 and Ten Thousand Songs, which administers his many copyright interests.
