Andy Frasco and The U.N. performances have been described as a "loud blend of harmonious funk and jazzy influences, all topped off with unlimited energy".
Frasco frequently calls other guest musicians to join his band on stage during concerts, as well as fans. The shows are highly improvised, featuring impromptu "battles/jam" between the band members. Frasco's shows are also very interactive, he is often stopping the show to speak directly to audience members, as well as inviting spectators on stage !!!
Very certainly one of the best "Live" bands of the current generation.
