Pee Wee Ellis plays "The Popcorn"

James Brown's former band director and sax-legend Pee Wee Ellis is back on the road - this time with a brandnew bag of surprises: PW will play James Brown's masterpiece album "The Popcorn" (1969)in its entirety. This has never happened before, although PW has arranged this album and written most tunes.

The dates:

May 11 Hannover, Palo Palo
May 13 Paris, Le Tryptique
May 14 Lyon, Ninkasi
May 18 Toulon, Omega live
May 20 Heidelberg, Billy Blues

Get ready for some funk!

It sure is. The tour kick off last night was the bomb. Imagine the Popcorn live .. only more complex and even more powerful. It was a very impressive show.
