Get ready!! Tonight the Starry Plough in Berkeley is presenting a bumpin
night of Soul and Samba with The California Honeydrops, The Loyd Family
Players and Stymie and the Pimp Jones Luv Orchestra. We are busting out
our weapons of mass percussion for one final Summer show before the
caravans leave for Burning Man.
Who we're playing with:
The California Honeydrops
(http://www.myspace.com/thecaliforniahoneydrops) are the Bay Area’s
newest and most authentic Roots and Blues ensemble. Influenced by
artists such as Robert Johnson, Professor Longhair, and the Soul
Stirrers, this group of young musicians breathes new life and
inspiration into the nearly forgotten music of the American South.
Combining the styles of ragtime, blues, gospel and soul all in an
acoustic jug band format. You might have seen us play with them at last
year's Misson Creek Music Festival in San Francisco.
and...
Stymie & the PJLO's (http://www.myspace.com/stymie) instrumentation and
presentation recalls classic funk groups like Funkadelic and Sly and The
Family Stone, yet the music is 100% original, blending all the musical
influences, modern cultural craziness, and cartoon humor that affect our
lives.Besides opening for funk legends Earth, Wind, and Fire at
Californias Shoreline Amphitheater and Concord Pavilion, Stymie & the
PJLO have paid dues at such venerable San Francisco clubs as Slims,
Bimbos, the Elbo Room, the Bottom of the Hill, Tongue and Groove, and
the Paradise Lounge.
We are looking forward to another packed venue and hope you will come
through to continue supporting our music and the groove that gets a
sweat goin' like no other.
Show at 9:15...and we are playing two sets.
See you there!
serina (aka Lusty) loyd.
