The Time now The Original 7ven, on Leno October 27, tour dates

By April MacIntyre Oct 13, 2011, 18:06 GMT

The Original 7ven (the band formerly known as The Time) will debut their new funk-fueled hit, “#Trendin,” on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on October 27th.

The performance - their first television appearance as the Original 7ven – comes just a week after their album, Condensate, is released on October 17th

A tour and promotional appearances include a show at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles on October 19th, the theatrical debut of their documentary at the Grammy Museum on October 18th, interviews on CNN, the Tom Joyner Show, Yahoo! Music, Vibe magazine’s Lifestyle Network, in USA Today and many more.

In early December, the Original 7ven will spend a “Takeover Weekend” at BET’s Centric network, with videos, special programming and exclusive interviews devoted to the music and the history of the band. Centric reaches over 44 million homes nationwide.

The new album marks the first time the seven musicians have recorded together in over 21 years. Morris Day, Jesse Johnson, Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis, Jellybean Johnson, Jerome Benton and Monte Moir deliver exciting funk/rock/pop that drove the launch of the Minneapolis Sound, infused with a new energy and power. Irrepressible front man Morris Day captivates and entertains like no other against a backdrop of musical talent that few can match. The first single off the album, “#Trendin,” is already a hit at radio stations nationwide and is the #1 most added song at the Urban Adult Radio format in its first week out.

After their two-week promotional run on the West Coast, the Original 7ven will travel to their hometown of Minneapolis for a special “homecoming” concert, before heading to New York for a number of additional appearances to be announced in the coming weeks. Details will be posted on www.TheOriginal7ven.com.

Jellybean at the Fdeluxe show at Yoshi`s last month, said they are trying to set up a Original 7ven show in the Bay Area show hopefully in December. I believe Morris Day and the Time play here in the Bay Area in November.

Have the Time ever done their own music or has Prince been the mastermind behind the scenes??

Yes, some of the tracks on Pandemonium had no Prince involvement at all:

Blondie

Skillet

It's Your World

Sometimes I Get Lonely

Pandemonium too....right???

That's great news! Morris Day and the Time are indeed playing a gig in SF in November but I already saw them last year. I wanna see ALL the Original Seven in concert. If they come anywhere near me, I'm there! biggrin

I think Morris booked these recent gigs before the Original Seven booked their own. It's all good--as long as the Original Seven come to the Bay Area! cool

Becuz that is his bread & butter. He has to make money some how that is his job. Some of of U r so clueless about an entertainers lifestyle. He suppose to just not work at all becuz of The Original 7ven?

I will agree that it was confusing(4some not me)) when "The Original The Time" went on a mini tour a few years ago. It was hard 4 some to distinguish both bands. But now I understand that Morris has to feed his family somehow. Just like when people think that Prince should have kept The Revolution 2gether after a hundred years & not give other talented musicians a chance 2 work with him. Clueless!
