MIRANDA POWELL
// keys
I'm a production nerd who was a classical gal for 14 years. Now for the past 5 years, I've been playing just grooves and bops - check out my solo project by clicking my profile!
Fun fact: My Nord keyboard and I are inseparable.
BEN GRIEGO
// bass
I'm a Seattle rocker turned jazz enthusiast and have a drive to compose across genres. I really like tie-dye - you'll understand when you see us play live. Click my profile to get to know me more!
Fun fact: Miranda and I have twin degrees from Belmont University.
FELIX MUNGER
// drums
I'm a Quebec boy who can insult or compliment you in French (whichever you'd like). I'm always down to groove in any style, any time. Lettuce or Tool would be pretty great, though.
Fun fact: I sell wooden musical spoons. No, really. It's awesome.
Formed in the summer of 2018 in Nashville, Brain Salad was initiated by bassist Ben Griego, who was committed to establishing a jazz fusion group that performed complex works by the likes of Hiromi, The Aristocrats, Mike Stern, and Herbie Hancock. Drummer Felix Munger and keyboardist Miranda Powell both quickly joined, with the goal of pursuing musical growth in their instruments, writing, and production.
Brain Salad is intent upon pushing the limits of musical exploration, developing and honing creativity, and fostering an appreciation of jazz fusion in audiences young and old. In 2020, Brain Salad released their self-titled debut album and were awarded "Best Jazz Group" in the Nashville Industry Music Awards.
