Pencilgrass Reunion Show w/s/g Mister F!
Rare reunion show with one of the most beloved bands from the mid 2000 New Haven scene. If you saw them back in the day, you know you need to hit this. If you didn't? Well now you can find out what all the fuss was about! And with Mister F kicking things off? Forget about it. A once in a lifetime show.
Pencilgrass
Starting in November of 2002, Pencilgrass fought their way up the ranks of pretenders and contenders to become Miami's undisputed champions of soul. This seven man party machine creates sounds that fuel dance floor heroics by even those most stoic. Pencilgrass left Miami for the northeast in August of 2003.
"Prog-R&B?" "Glam-Soul?" Pencilgrass just calls what they do "Dance Music." And that's exactly what they deliver. It is through the head-bobbing, rump-shaking melodies and beats, the introspectacular lyrics and Barry White-esque crooning of Eddie Pren, and their live hi-jinx that these "white punks on funk" generate the party and invite in all takers. Pencilgrass like to consider themselves a sort of dance music compendium, referencing such experts as Sly and The Family Stone, the soul-disco artists of the 1970's, and Bad Brains. All the while, they wear their Miami roots on their sleeves, brandishing latin rhythms and electronic noise.
Mister F
Formed in 2013 from members of Northeast regional acts Timbre Coup and Capital Zen, Mister F is an eclectic, high-energy 4-piece band that takes a no-holds-barred approach to blending genres while keeping your feet moving. Having performed with their previous bands at festivals such as Mountain Jam, moe.down, Summer Camp, Camp Bisco, and snoe.down, the members of Mister F are no strangers to the music community. Their first show, March 1st 2013, was very well-received, and they are already taking their show on the road to cities as far as Lawrence, KS and Augusta, GA.
"Mister Fa dynamic quartet that broaches all aspects of organized music. Rooted in funk traditions, Mister F's members are no strangers to unique compositions and sonic explorations, though it's done with a tightness that keeps listeners dancing throughout their performances."
