SUMMARY:Arrested Development at UC Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Pioneers of the conscious rap game this Saturday\, 9/23\nDoors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm\n\n\n\n\n\nFormed in Atlanta in 1988\, Arrested Development was founded by Speech and his ex-best friend Headliner as a positive\, Afrocentric alternative to the gangsta rap popular in the early 1990s. \n\nIt has been twenty years since a new group called Arrested Development slammed the gangsta dominated world of hip hop with defiant lyrics of hope. Apparently the world was ready for the change as AD became the first ever hip-hop artist to receive the “best new artist” Grammy\, (a distinction it still maintains today in that category). In addition\, the group also received a Grammy award for “best rap single” for their anthemic prayer-like hit song\, Tennessee.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets    *  For More About The UC Theatre\n\nFor Pre and Post Show!\nBring your ticket or the stub over to Bobby G’s Pizzeria and get $1 off pints of beer\, glasses of wine\, and slices before and after the show!\n\n\nClick here for more info.

SUMMARY:The Zombies
DESCRIPTION:The second UK group following the Beatles to score a #1 hit in America\, The Zombies infiltrated the airwaves with the sophisticated melodies\, breathy vocals\, choral back-up harmonies and jazzy keyboard riffs of their 1960’s hit singles like “She’s Not There” and “Tell Her No”. Ironically\, the group broke-up in 1968 just prior to achieving their greatest success – the chart-topping single “Time of the Season”\, from their swan-song album “Odessey & Oracle” (recently ranked #100 in Rolling Stone’s “500 Greatest Albums of All Time”). In the intervening years\, while lead singer Colin Blunstone went on to develop an acclaimed solo career\, and keyboardist/songwriter Rod Argent rocked ‘70’s arenas with his eponymous band ARGENT\, the legend of The Zombies took on a life of its own. Generations of new bands have cited The Zombies’ work as pop touchstones\, including such artists as Neko Case and Nick Cave (who have recorded “She’s Not There” for the popular HBO series True Blood)\, She & Him\, Beck\, Belle and Sebastian\, The Black Angels\, The Fleet Foxes\, Beach House and The Beautiful South. Decades later\, Blunstone and Argent have resurrected The Zombies\, recruiting bassist Jim Rodford (formerly of ARGENT and The Kinks)\, Rodford’s son Steve on drums\, and renowned session guitarist Tom Toomey. The ten songs that make up their latest album\, “Breathe Out\, Breathe In”\, are impeccably crafted; the harmonies are rich\, the melodies full\, the arrangements exquisite\, the organ and piano fresh and the production intuitive. The Huffington Post’s David Wild called the album “inspired” and said “some songs recall the haunting melodic heights of the group’s 1968 masterpiece Odessey and Oracle.” \n  \nGet tickets here

SUMMARY:Tinariwen
DESCRIPTION:The new album by Tinariwen could well have been called Exile on Main Street. But other people have already thought of that. It also could have been called A la recherché du pays perdu (‘Remembrance of a lost country’). Except that would have been a tad Proustian for musicians who grew up pretty much between a rock and a sand dune\, in the midst of their goat herds and camel caravans. But the idea is apt. As is the painful paradox\, if you consider that while Tinariwen were busy criss-crossing the globe on their recent triumphant tours (160 concerts played in the past three years)\, expanding their audience on all five continents\, becoming one of the latest musical phenomena of truly universal calibre\, the frontiers that encircle their desert home were closing down and double-locking\, forcing them into exile to record this their 8th album. \n  \nGet tickets here

SUMMARY:WHY?
DESCRIPTION:The final words sung on the sixth album by WHY? are an apt place to begin: “Hold on\, what’s going on?” Because while there’s much familiar about the oddly named Moh Lhean—mastermind Yoni Wolf’s sour-sweet croon\, his deadpan poet’s drawl and ear for stunningly fluid psych-pop-folk-whatever arrangement—a great deal has changed in the four years that’ve passed since 2012’s Mumps\, Etc.\, an LP that honed the band’s orchestral precision and self-deprecating swagger to a fine point. It’s significant that this is the first fully home-recorded WHY? album since the project’s 2003 debut. Made mostly in Wolf’s studio and co-produced by his brother Josiah\, the result is obsessive\, of course\, but also intimate\, and flush with warmth and looseness. But the biggest transformation is a bit subtler. After years of eying his world\, in part\, with a cynical squint\, Wolf here learns a new mode. While Moh Lhean never stoops to outright optimism\, it chronicles our hero finding peace in the unknowing\, trading the wry smirk for a holy shrug\, and looking past corporeal pain for something more cosmic and\, rest assured\, equally weird. \n  \nGet tickets here

SUMMARY:Talib Kweli
DESCRIPTION:The Brooklyn-based rapper earned his stripes as one of the most lyrically-gifted\, socially aware and politically insightful rappers to emerge in the last 20 years. His travels around the globe as one of rap’s most in-demand performers combined with his conversations with political activists and his genre-straddling work with Idle Warship and others caused Kweli to realize that he was limited in a sense\, a prisoner of sorts of his own success as one of the world’s best rappers with something significant to say. \n  \nGet tickets here

SUMMARY:Borgore
DESCRIPTION:His decade-long scroll of accomplishments include heading up his own successful label\, Buygore Records\, headlining sold out shows to record-breaking crowds at iconic events such as Tomorrowland\, Made In America\, Ultra and EDC Las Vegas\, a weekly internationally syndicated SiriusXM radio series ‘The Borgore Show’\, and a milieu of collaborative bangers alongside fellow ratchet cohorts like Miley Cyrus\, Waka Flocka Flame and Diplo. Hailed as one of the most mind-melting dubstep artists of his generation\, the 27-year-old classically trained producer\, song writer\, and DJ’s sonic evolution has been as enticing as his surreal multi-sensory show productions. As a fearless boundary buster\, Borgore has deconstructed the stereotype of what a musician should be by blending his bass\, trance\, hip hop and dubstep influences with his compositional education from Tel Aviv’s world renowned Thelma Yellin music academy. Unlike most electronic acts whose stagnant big room sounds barely make it past the press release abyss\, Asaf’s initial standout releases like 2009’s Ice Cream Mixtape and 2010’sBorgore Ruined Dubstep\, Pt. 1 & Pt. 2\, made him an early frontrunner in the dubstep scene. \n  \nTickets

SUMMARY:The New Mastersounds Turkuaz
DESCRIPTION:The New Mastersounds formed in Leeds UK in 1999 and cut their teeth as the resident live band at a hip dance club\, playing every Friday and Saturday night for nearly two years. \nA rough 8-track recording of an early rehearsal got into the hands of some London DJs\, and was released soon after on two limited-edition 7″ singles. Invitations to play club gigs in London soon followed\, and before long the band had established a reputation around UK and Europe as forerunners of the deep funk revival scene. Fast-forward to 2004: having experimented with various line-ups and recorded 2 albums\, the original 4-piece band was invited to Chicago to open for the Greyboy All Stars at the House of Blues. This gig kicked off a prolific live career in USA which continues to the present day\, backed up by more studio records\, live albums\, a remix album and 2 compilations. Their quirky\, catchy instrumental ditties have been used on TV and film soundtracks\, and the band is the subject of an award-winning feature-length documentary: “Coals to Newcastle: The New Mastersounds – from Leeds to New Orleans”. \n  \nTickets
