Jay Funk Dawg Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 www.nufunk.ca presents SURPRISE ME MR. DAVIS www.surprisememrdavis.com w/ guests Freeman Dre & The Kitchen Party and Spookey Ruben Thursday, August 25th, 2011 Horseshoe Tavern 370 Queen Street West $12 Adv. / $15 doors facebook link: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=150282138379816 Nathan Moore...alias: 'Percy Boyd'; wonder-kid singer-songwriter/hobo-poet from Staunton, VA; winner of the 2008 Telluride Troubadour Award Brad Barr, Marc Friedman, Andrew Barr...alias: 'The Slip'; kaleidoscopic avant-rock trio; Rolling Stone Dec. 2006 Artist to Watch Marco Benevento...alias: 'Johnny Largo'; virtuosic keyboard improviser / composer / visionary; founding member of The Duo; says David Fricke of Rolling Stone, "(Marco) hammers his keyboards like John Bonham and writes like a guitarist." Surprise Me Mr. Davis is an electro-roots pop band consisting of folk singer Nathan Moore, the members of avant-rock band The Slip: Brad Barr, Marc Friedman and Andrew Barr; and the newest member, dazzling post rock pianist Marco Benevento. The band formed in 2003 in Boston while Moore was visiting The Slip at their apartment when the Blizzard of 2003 hit. They were snowed in at the Barr brothers Mission Hill home for five days with a brand new stereo microphone and computer. Songs were written, plans were made and Surprise Me Mr. Davis was born. Touring sparsely over the first six years of their existence, Surprise Me Mr. Davis has decided that 2011 will be the year the band becomes a number one priority. A new studio album That Man Eats Morning for Breakfast soon to be released! more info: www.nufunk.ca or email Jay@360degreesartists.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Touring sparsely over the first six years of their existence, Surprise Me Mr. Davis has decided that 2011 will be the year the band becomes a number one priority. Following the 'fashionably late' path that their entire career seems to have taken thus far- they've already missed out on half of this their self proclaimed "priority year" while Nathan u-streams his life and The Barrs bring the half dead Slip back to life just as their hot as shit solo project finally gets some attention.

lsamuel3 Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 hahah that was pretty golden. think those 3 slip shows were probably the last for some time as the barrs will now be focusing heavily on the barr brothers, what with the label signing and big tours coming up.

Northern Wish Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 I am listening to the 7/16 show now, and if that is true I have to ask why are they debuting new material?[color:purple]The Slip didn't have enough back catalog gems to play for their back catalog fans?

Booche Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) It would probably be easier for them to debut a new song than relearn their older/tougher material. Edited July 19, 2011 by Guest Failed argument Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsamuel3 Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 they are putting out a new album (eventually) will they tour behind it? probably very minimally. i do agree they should just stick with 1 band, at this point the barr brothers as it's actually getting the best/most buzz, but you know the barrs, they don't do what's safe, they just do what they wanna do...

PassedOutGuy Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 11:30 start time for two sets on a work night is insane. I know i know, Im getting old but when you have a little one getting you up around 6 every morning the late nights just dont happen as much anymore. Friday's gonna be tough. Really wish it had of been only two bands but am super stoked for SMMD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
