Just Friends ----Turk canceled www.facebook.com/JustFriendsCA experimental hip hop neo-soul r&b rnb soul Sidewalk Chalk Rico Sisney - MC Maggie Vagle - Vocals Charlie Coffeen - Keys Josh Rosen - Bass Jerrel Johnson - Drums Sam Trump - Trumpet David Ben-Porat - Trombone -from Chicago, IL -Sidewalk Chalk prepares to release their fourth full-length album, An Orchid Is Born, on Ropeadope Records and produced by Grammy Award-winner Robert “Sput” Searight. This is the album that Sidewalk Chalk has truly always been trying to make -- a speeding bullet ripe with heat and rhythm that speaks to mankind’s need to cheer in the darkest of moments and to choose love over inhumanity in all things. In the band’s rebirth is an emphatic statement of purpose. This vibrant collection of transformative moments is a benchmark release for Sidewalk Chalk that marks the arrival of a powerhouse and proves that the Chicago sound machine is a phoenix rising. Split into three movements - The Hope, The Loss, and The Birth - An Orchid Is Born shows the band’s remarkable capacity for growth. They see that we cannot be reborn until we lose what we have, first treading in the well of despair that is a loss preceded by hope. In these three movements, Sidewalk Chalk has realized the best version of their band and, in the process, created their most important body of work. The hard fought project encapsulates the latest chapter of the band’s growth as a unit -- a period somehow beautified by a series of deep wounds that might have derailed a less focused collective. Little more than a year removed from the debut of their live album Shoulder Season, a seismic shift rocked the foundations of Sidewalk Chalk, refined their aesthetic and inspired a body of work that is as cathartic as it is the catapult necessary to push the rarefied groove at the foundation of their sound past its Chicago stomping grounds, to points across the globe. More Fatter -Tommy Economou - guitar, vocals; Márk Fédronic - keys, trombone, vocals; Theo Fédronic - trumpet, vocals; Adam Heymann - bass; Danny Chiapelone - drums; John Lewis - sax -from Belmont, CA -More Fatter is a funk fusion band from the San Francisco Bay Area. Bringing spacious, brassy dance grooves, lusciously tight choral harmonies, and a fiery live presence, More Fatter has quickly established itself as "San Francisco's newest funk, rock, and jazz fusion experiment" (Bay Bridged). With Tommy Economou on vocals/guitar, Mark Fedronic on trombone/vocals/keyboards, Adam Heymann on bass, Danny Chiapelone on drums, and Theo Fedronic on trumpet/vocals, More Fatter celebrates the chaotic zone between our wildest dreams and everyday realities, driven by a mission to fire up and heal the hearts and souls of listeners. Check out their debut single, "Mr. Dassey" now available on Spotify, iTunes, Soundcloud, and Bandcamp! Look out for upcoming shows in the Bay Area and beyond, more single releases and their debut record coming out in 2017. You won't want to miss it. Just Friends Avi, Ben, Brandon, Sam, Chris, Kent, Matt -from Dublin/Pleasanton, CA -This is one of the best bands that nobody's ever heard of. |
