TONIGHT IN NYC: MACEO PARKER AT THE BLUE NOTE

TONIGHT IN NYC: MACEO PARKER AT THE BLUE NOTE

THE BLUE NOTE (131 West 3rd Street, NYC - 212-475-8592) presents Maceo Parker on Monday through Thursday, April 22nd through 25th with shows at 8:00 & 10:30 pm. Maceo Parker's name is synonymous with Funky Music, his pedigree impeccable; his band: the tightest little funk orchestra on earth. By now that he's played with each and every leader of funk, his start with James Brown, which Maceo describes as " like being at University "; jumping aboard the Mothership with George Clinton; stretching out with Bootsy's Rubber Band. He's the living, breathing pulse that connects the history of Funk in one golden thread. The cipher that unravels dance music down to its core. In 1991, Maceo was remembered by aficionados of funk music as sideman; appreciated mainly by those in the know. More than a decade and a half later Maceo Parker has been enjoying a blistering solo career. For the past sixteen years Maceo has been building a new funk empire, fresh and stylistically diverse. He navigates deftly between James Brown's 1960's soul and George Clinton's 1970's freaky funk while exploring mellower jazz and the grooves of hip-hop. His collaborations over the years performing or recording or both have included Ray Charles, Ani Difranco, James Taylor, De La Soul, Dave Matthews Band and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. His timeless sound has garnered him a fresh young fan base. Call for cover/minimum information.
