It Lives, It Breathes!
CD RELEASE EVENT FOR NYC ARTIST, JOHN CAREY: CDs Revelry Now & Oh So Funky. "Oh So Funky" (2012, Planet Bass, NYC), consists of the music from The Meters, an American funk band based in New Orleans, Louisiana that made their records in the late 60s and 70s. The CD features Andy Narell steelpans (Chucho Valdes, Bela Fleck, Marcus Miller, Spyro Gyra, Aretha Franklin, The Kronos String Quartet...), Anton Fig drums (Late Show w/David Letterman, Joe Bonamassa, Booker T. & The MG's, Bob Dylan, Cyndi Lauper...), Oz Noy guitar (Chris Botti, Gavin DeGraw, Harry Belafonte, Gov't Mule, Allen Toussaint...), Will Lee featured vocalist (Late Show w/David Letterman, George Benson, Hiram Bullock, Brecker Brothers...) and John Carey bass, vocals, percussion & producer. The recording is filled with super groovy tunes that adhere to the tradition of The Meters, yet utilize the lively and tropical sounds of the steelpans in place of the organ.
"Revelry Now" (2011, Planet Bass, NYC), revisits songs originally performed by The Beatles, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, Bill Withers, Carole King & more, all with a unique approach placing the Fender Jazz bass front & center.
