Tony Allen & Hypnotic Brass Ensemble – RBMA radio show
UPDATE: The show proved to be quite a success and RBMA have put together a one hour special radio show with highlights from what was a really memorable night.
“Karen P’s Broad Casting kicked off 2009 with another incredible line-up featuring a unique collaboration between Tony Allen, The Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and a whole heap of special guests including Ty, Natty and the legendary Baaba Maal. It was an incredible show stretching out for 2 hours and featuring some truly goose-bump inducing moments. As always, the whole performance was recorded for RBMA Radio and we have distilled the finest moments from the multi-track recording into this one hour ‘On the Floor’ special. Enjoy!”
Some London-centric news. Anyone in or around London town would do well to keep next thursday free as Tony Allen & Hypnotic Brass Ensemble are taking over Cargo, thanks to Red Bull Music Academy.
If you’re into drums, drummers or just good music, then the name Tony Allen will be familiar to you, but if you don’t then check his myspace and get to know. The man can drum and his recognised as one of the greats still alive.
As for Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, I first heard of them through New York people on twitter funnily enough but after a few youtube videos I’m totally sold on how dope they are. See below if you need proof.
Combine the two and you have a night not to miss. Tickets are 9 pounds in advance, check Cargo’s site for full details and where to buy. See you there!
