This quartet hails from Massachusetts North Shore. From the bands website “The Brew appeals to rock, funk, jam, jazz, reggae, and pop enthusiasts alike, and it has been said that their music summons the spirits of artists such as Peter Gabriel, YES, The Police, and contemporaries like Percy Hill. After cutting their first studio album in 2003, The Brew have since release two more, including their 2006 release, The Key, as well as a DVD documenting their performance at The Harvest Fest in Maine.”

Check out this high quality sound board recording of these guys jamming out in VT early this week.

I had the pleasure of seeing these guys jam in Buffalo a couple of years ago. They were good that night all though there were only a handful of us in the crowd. Since then Jim Weider’s ProJECT PERCoLAToR has been on fire playing before big crowds in clubs across America. This year will see them playing big festivals like Waren Hayne’s Mountain Jam in Hunter Mountain, NY.

I’ve been listening to these guys for a few months now and they really take the electronic improv sound to the next level.

“Zilla where the music will take them night after night. Relying on their uncanny ability to listen and incorporate their individual talents into a group focused brand of live electronic dance music, Zilla is sweeping the country by storm with their rare breed of beats, bass and uncontrollable musical fury making each performance exactly what live music is all about: spontaneity, grooves, and a damn good dance party.”

Last Wednesday was another great night for the Buffalo jam band scene. The Town Ballroom was jam packed for Philly’s own G Love and the Special Sauce. They played for more than two hours laying it down with the best blend of blues, funk, and hip hop I’ve heard.

This is my 4th time seeing G. Love and the band gets better every time I see them. G. Love opened with “Back of the Bus” and had The Wood Brothers (who opened) sit in on “Walk On The Wild Side” which was sick with the brothers laying down deep bass licks throughout the song. Check out the samples below to hear for you self.
