The funk/soul band is back, and this time we’re kicking off what will be a weekly thing: Sundays at Neomeze in Old Town Pasadena. The live sounds of late 60s / early 70s funk and soul-jazz, with a touch of boogaloo and a dash of Dap-Kings flavor. We’re taking this music seriously–this isn’t just a bunch of cats jamming over a funk beat, we’re going for the authentic, classic feel and sound. Expect some early Kool & the Gang, James Brown, Lou Donaldson, and more… lots of rare funk breaks. Same amazing band, featuring 3 members of Breakestra.
Neomeze is a really nice joint, with an outdoor patio, beautiful full bar, great food, and an excellent selection of beer on tap. Plus NO COVER! Oh, and they arbitrarily started advertising us as “The NeoFunk All-Stars,” so I guess that’s are new name, for now at least.
