Bands seek momentum from 3-day Lenapalooza The Daily Gazette - September 2, 2005 Philip Schwartz |
"... Mudfunk is distinct for Rowe's gravelly, emotional baritone vocals -- think of folkie Greg Brown singing soul -- and Haber's complex, textured rhythms on percussion in which he mixes a Middle Eastern finger technique with Afro-Latin drumming. Together, Rowe and Haber produce a sound that seems much larger than the two of them." "... Perhaps that is what attracted the Contemporary Music Events and Artist Services to sponsor an October Mudfunk tour of England, Scotland and Wales with two other bands. The three-week tour, which includes 21 dates in some of the top UK clubs, is also tied to a British Arts Council program that will have Mudfunk leading student workshops. Again, something to hang your hat on." |
