The Real Chuck NORAD

The Real Chuck NORAD is a Minneapolis-based group of working musicians with backgrounds spanning a wide range of genres. Our members perform in a variety of groups and settings, both nationally and internationally. We come together in The Real Chuck NORAD to to create an experimental blend of funk, trip-hop, and psychedelic sounds—a high-energy soundtrack for the future. Our powerhouse lineup features vocals, bass, guitar, keys, drums, percussion, baritone sax, trumpet, tenor sax, and trombone—designed to move bodies and blow minds. We’re committed to crafting original music that’s as danceable as it is unexpected. We’ve performed at local venues like the Cedar Cultural Center, Porchfest, and The Hook and Ladder, and we host a monthly gathering every 4th Sunday at the 331 Club. Think of it as a dance party on a spaceship—with horns.
