I’ve always loved basements. I’m not sure that says anything good about my spirit, but there’s something about real music in a basement that makes me smile. Our Marketplace basement sessions have evolved into something I’m proud of. We’ve somehow managed to create a night where we can play pretty much what we want…..right in the centre of London….not easy.
If you hadn’t noticed, we’re only in the place every two months now so each session is a little more special. This month, we’re swapping the glitz of the golden pyramids (and Amaka’s golden legwear!) with the shine of brass in the shape of the 12 Tone Brass Band. If you’ve been following the progress of the 12 Tone camp and their growing army of heavyweight bands, you’ll know that 12 Tone Brass are a hot prospect. Come see what happens when we add six men, one drum kit and a whole heap of brass to the usual basement bubble.
Its a Heads High session so DJ pressure comes as standard. This time its a strictly residents affair with Duke Etienne, Cal Jader, DJ Judge and Miss Crawford in the area. Microphone blessings come courtesy of Connie Bell….and it’s all FREE!
Remember, it’s our last MP session of 2009 so don’t sleep!
Here’s a little sampler of 12 Tone Brass at the 606 Jazz basement style….i’ve never seen them in suits before…
