An ultra-groovy funk gem overflowing with feel-good contagious energy.

Radius, the German seven-piece funk and soul band, has established itself as one of the most dynamic acts in its genre. With one of the tightest horn sections in the country, they masterfully blend punchy keyboard riffs with the twangy blues of guitar, creating a sound that’s both infectious and unforgettable. Radius has shared stages with notable artists like American singer-songwriter Gregory Porter and performed at a variety of festivals and clubs. Their energy is contagious, sparking movement from the audience the moment they hit the stage. Previous releases such as “Super Secs,” “Midnight Coffee,” and “Koks Kabrio Kuba” showcase their unique style. Their latest release, “Plans Tonight,” features German-Italian funk-pop artist Leonora and comes with an engaging set of visuals that perfectly complement the track’s groove. 

With its emotionally resonant mix of melodic guitar, captivating trombone, lively trumpet, and smooth sax, “Plans Tonight” is a vibrant fusion of funk and pop that seamlessly blends classic and modern influences. The lyrics, like “I live for the weekend, Underpaid and overworked, I can’t wait for the evening, Going out and burn what I earned” and “When the clock strikes five, That’s when I come alive, I can’t work overtime, I got plans for tonight,” capture the relatable yearning for freedom and excitement after a long workweek. Powered by its expressive, soulful vocals and retro soul undertones, Radius and Leonora deliver an irresistibly groovy track that’s bursting with joy and energy.

Press play and let “Plans Tonight” wash away your workday stress and get you ready to dance.
