(Posted 09-NOV-2016) The first phase of our mammouth co-headline US tour with Turkuaz went swimmingly last month. The shows were a lot of fun, and we enjoyed more and more inter-band musical collaborations as we all got to know each other. One highlight was playing to 1200+ people at the Ogden Theater in Denver, another was our outdoor show in St Pete, FL, where we last all saw each other. We're in Zürich, Switzerland this weekend for JazzNoJazz Festival, then we meet up with Turkuaz in San Diego on November 9th to find out what exactly the US has decided to subject itself to for the next four years. We either begin Phase Two of the Fall Tour or dash across to the relative safety of Mexico before the Wall goes up. In the late 1990’s, guitarist and producer Eddie Roberts was running a club night in Leeds called “The Cooker.†When The Cooker moved into a new venue with a second floor in 1999, there was space and the opportunity to put a live band together to complement the DJ sets. Simon Allen and Eddie had played together in 1997 as The Mastersounds, though with a different bassist and no organ. Through friends and the intimate nature of the Leeds music scene, Pete Shand and Bob Birch were added on bass and Hammond respectively, and The New Mastersounds were born. Though it was raw, and more of a boogaloo sound at first, it was powerful from the start. Their first rehearsal was hot enough for Blow it Hard Records to release on two limited-edition 7†singles in 2000. Fast-forward 15 years and the recorded catalogue boasts 24 more 7†singles, 9 studio albums, 2 live albums, 1 remix album and 3 compilation albums, released variously in UK, USA and Japan, where they continue to tour extensively. Joe Tatton, another veteran of the Leeds scene, joined back in 2007, replacing Bob Birch on organ and piano. As a band, and as individuals, they have collaborated or jammed with an impressive array of musicians DJs and producers, including: Lou Donaldson (Blue Note), Corinne Bailey Rae (EMI), Quantic (Tru Thoughts), Carleen Anderson (Young Disciples / Brand New Heavies), Keb Darge & Kenny Dope (Kay Dee Records), John Arnold (Ubiquity), Mr Scruff (Ninja Tune), Snowboy (Ubiquity), Fred Everything (2020vision), Andy Smith (Portishead), James Taylor (JTQ), LSK (Faithless), Lack of Afro (Freestyle), Page McConnell (Phish), Grace Potter, Karl Denson (The Rolling Stones / Lenny Kravitz), Melvin Sparks (Blue Note Records), Fred Wesley, Pee Wee Ellis & Maceo Parker (JB’s), George Porter Junior, Zigaboo Modeliste, Art Neville (The Meters) and Ernest Ranglin. As an example of the respect this band commands, Peter Wermelinger - DJ, collector, and author of the crate-diggers’ bible The Funky & Groovy Music Lexicon - places the 2001 NMS track ‘Turn This Thing Around’ in his all-time top-ten tunes, along with the likes of Eddie Harris, Funkadelic, and Herbie Hancock. The New Mastersounds are at the very top of an elite selection of acts that bring the true soul out of funk. Please support musicians that are open to having their live shows recorded and shared by attending their performances and purchasing officially released recordings and other merchandise. http://www.newmastersounds.com/ https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/the-new-mastersounds/id19101120 https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=new%20mastersounds
