What’s Up Toronto!!

It’s time for another BIG, BAD, MOTHA FUNKIN’ blowout with Myself (KC Roberts) and the Live Revolution. This Friday June 4th, we throw it down at The Gladstone Hotel. This is going to be THE show to kick off June and a hot summer that you won’t forget. Simply put, you don’t want to miss this show, because it may be the last big one we do for a while. We have some new grooves and moves to drop on you, and we’ll be playing two boogie-infectious packed sets of our hard hitting funk, to put a smile on your face and some fresh marks in your dance shoes. There will be funk spinning before and after sets, and it’s gonna be a beautiful night to hit the town.
So bring your wonderfully wide and explosive love for Funk/House/Hip-Hop/Drum&Bass/Rock and Soul music and meet us at the dance floor. I promise it will be the kind of night you’ve been waiting for.

Hey Everybody we got two cool shows coming up in the next few weeks. And if y’all are looking for a place to get your asses on up, we will be laying it DOWN! We’ve got some new tunes and arrangements to share, so come hang and catch some good music.

First,We are playing Thursday March 25th with the talented rock stompin’ Pure Finesse at the El Mocambo. We’re gonna be opening the event up with an hour long set of Booyakasha! It is a very early show for us, and we’ll be hitting the stage at 9:30 pm SHARP! So get there at 9, so you don’t miss our set. Then Pure finesse will most likely hit the stage around 10:30.

Second, On April 1st we’re playing a benefit concert at Mitzi’s Sister for Caravan of hope.
On April first The Caravan of Hope is hosting a party to help raise money to buy 13 decommissioned ambulances from the city of Toronto and bring them to El Salvador.

About the cause:
The Caravan of Hope is purchasing 13 decommissioned ambulances and the City of Toronto will be donating one as well. We are fortunate to be living in a part of the world where our ambulances are sold off after a 54 month service period to ensure a high level of emergency vehicles. So the Caravan is purchasing some of these vehicles and driving them to El Salvador. As it stands, El Salvador has 4 ambulances serving the general public. All 4 of those ambulance have been provided by Toronto, so let’s keep up this up and build a good reputation of helping Latin America.

What a GREAT show. We rammed Clinton’s and paid homage to Nirvana while putting our own spin on the music. The band was on fire and it was amazing to hear the crowd singing along to all their favourite Nirvana songs. Thanks to all of you who came we raised $1045 for Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders.

And for all of you who couldn’t make it… we have BIG news. We had the show recorded by our studio engineer (PROPS to Phil Spencer). We will be offering it online as a FREE ALBUM! That’s right… FREE. The online release date will be posted soon.
