The Routine is a favorite at Motley Brews and returns again as the amazing four-piece Funk-Rock band that exploded onto the West-Coast music scene in 2013. Rooted in San Diego, California, they pack funk, rock, soul, afro-beat, and psychedelia into an infectious groove that always brings the heat to the dance floor. Since inception, they have taken their memorable live performance across the western United States and established themselves as one of So-cal’s must-see acts. In 2018 The Routine released “Puddin’”, their debut full-length album. With the dynamic range running everything from rocking highs, haunting dirges, soulful chants, and experimental surges, “Puddin’” establishes the bands unique sound and creative potential.
