mo E Music Update- July 8 2010

Greetings, 

Brothers Lazaroff kicks off my weekend of performing tonight at Off Broadway.  We'll be opening for Sugar Hill artist Sarah Borges and the Broken Singles from Boston, MA.  Showtime is 8 PM sharp.

Brothers Lazaroff opening for Sarah Borges
Off Broadway
Thursday July 8
8 PM

After a successful debut at Fair St. Louis a smaller version of the mo E All-Stars hits the Delmar Lounge- 6235 Delmar Ave this Friday July 9.  We'll do a set of chill grooves and acid jazz at 8.  Later the fun begins as Grover Stewart (drums), Jingo Williams (percussion) and myself take a journey into the world of electronica inspired grooves.

Follow the link if you don't see the video to watch the All-Stars recent Fair St. Louis performance.

We'll do everything from jazzy drum and bass to fully organic house with the beat machine being only a component of the sound.  Grover and Jingo can recreate any groove I can write and they will have plenty of space to throw down.  We end at 11:30 so join us early if you can.  Guests may be stopping in as well.

And the new Delmar menu is really good...I'm a fan of the blackened fish.

Mo E Music. UG Project @ Lola tonight, Soul Alliance/CocoSoul tomorrow for brunch.

Greetings and Happy Summer,

Not sure what happened to Spring.... First we'd really like to thank all of those who voted in this year's RFT Music Poll.  Brothers Lazaroff was honored as the best Americana band (non-traditional).  Stay tuned for an announcement about the new Brothers album later in 2010. 

Also I'm excited to announce the debut of the mo E All-Stars.  No I haven't lost it and started yet another band.   The All-Stars is an extension of the mo E Trio-groove edition and features memebers of the rhythm section as opposed to the traditional lead singer or horn player.  We are debuting under the Arch at Fair St. Louis July 3.  See below for poster.

Tonight UG Project brings their unique brand of deep house mixed with jazz, Latin and soul back to Lola.  Showtime is 9:30.  Lamar Harris won't be with us but I'll be joined by Duane "Jingo" Williams and CJ Conrod as usual.  Special guests may be in the house (heh heh) as well.

Strong emphasis is placed on mixing spontaneous improvisations with original MIDI sequences that are manipulated live. Add horns, soulful vocals, jazz influenced keyboard voicings and live percussion and you have UG Project.

 

This week we are joined by Mr. C Jay Conrod on vocals.

 

Featuring DJ Nune (L. Harris)- Brass, Beats, Vocals and Keys.

Mo Egeston Presents the Mo E Trio Live @ Lola. Best known for his role as a band leader pianist Mo Egeston is stepping out front and leading his own trio in 2010

Using influences from all the projects he plays in (the Soul Alliance, UG Project and Brothers Lazaroff) as well as his own interest in combining soul, jazz and electronic influences the Mo E Trio will seek to redefine traditional expectations.

This week the Mo E Trio will feature Grover Stewart on drums and Teddy Brookins on bass. Soul-jazz, bossa, ambient house, drum and bass and original music will be explored.
