MECCA BODEGA - CD SKIN

Popis - SKIN:
Mecca Bodega is a percussive driven band from New York City featuring imaginative rhythmists Marc and Paul Mueller. Their eclectic tribal groove complements Kevin Huppert's bass and Marlon Cherry's inventive guitar work and vocals. Along with Australian didjeridoo player Simon 7, they create a unique hypnotic sound that is fresh and challenging to the ear and spirit. The instruments featured on their compact discs and movie scores range from African drums and Brazilian percussion to hammered dulcimer, found objects, guitars, didjeridoo, and voice. Mecca Bodega is a part of the Music Under New York program and when not touring can be heard performing all over the city, from Grand Central Station to Lincoln Center. Mecca Bodega has been featured on National Public Radio broadcasts of 'New Sounds' on WNYC and Garrison Keillor's 'Prairie Home Companion' with Simon 7 of Didjworks. They've recorded film scores, most recently for director Jonathan Demme for HBO's 'Subway Stories.' They also appeared in this film. Respected for their artistry and collaboration, Mecca Bodega has worked with M.Doughty (Soul Coughing), Mary Lorson (Madder Rose), Chris Rael (Church of Betty), Kevin Salem, and with Public Enemy and Stephen Stills on the soundtrack for the Spike Lee movie, 'He Got Game.' Having an insatiable appetite for touring, Mecca Bodega has touched audiences nationally and internationally, including performances at Lollapollooza '92, Woodstock '94, Celebrate Brooklyn Summer Festival, and a recent tour of Australia.
