J*Davey - at SOB's in New York City - Sunday, June 8th, 8:00pm Posting this for a friend
Doors open 7pm - Showtime 8pm Tickets: $12.00 in Advance/$15.00 Day of performance "S.O.B.’s and Sista Factory present J*Davey, the Los Angeles-based new wave electro-soul duo that broke out and developed a strong cult following after several opening gigs for Prince in 2007. With influences ranging from punk, soul rock and hip hop, J*Davey has defined its own genre, and according to Brook D’Leau, the group’s producer, "It's simple, [J*Davey] is a post hip-hop electronic new wave funk punk jazz band.” According to ?uestlove, super-producer and famed drummer of the Roots, “J*Davey is the swift kick in the ass I’ve been praying for Black Music to produce!” No matter how you describe it, J*Davey is an undeniably original sound that screams individuality. Brook D’Leau, is the guy responsible for their snappy drum loops and electronic impulses, while Jack Davey is the modelesque girl, sporting a mohawk and polishing off his beats with her sexy and seductive voice. And with no full album to date, the group has already received coverage in major music publications such as The Fader (May/June '05), URB Magazine (March '06), Xlr8r (March '06), YRB (January '07) and the COVER of BPM Magazine (January '07). Prepare yourself for a sneak peak into a new approach to music, yet to be discovered by most." [Edited 6/5/08 16:53pm] | |

I actually saw them at the same venue last year, and yes, they were pretty good. NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |
