Streetbeat is here. Warehouse Republic mix modern street beats and put it together with rock and roll. Juan grew up in the streets of Miami, Guilherme in Porto Alegre in Brazil, Jason in the 'burbs of London and Charlie in the earth of Lincoln and the 'burbs of LDN. There is a warmth from the streets they all feel. They are like a New York gang of friends. Hanging out drinking in the sunshine. Here to bring rock and roll back and mix it with new beats and sounds. Its Warehouse Republic. Taking youth culture back for the rebels.
The Rose and Ben Band would like to thank you so very much for your friendship and support. And appreciate you accepting our invitation, VOICE IT IN MUSIC.
Hey Jim! Nice meeting you and seeing Mister Badger play this past Sunday for the UKEFEST at the Gershwin Hotel. There was a real nice feeling of 'family' there. Any recomendations on a Baritone UKE? Thanks again for having us artists as your guests! RT Vegas RT VEGAS Outsider Folk Art UKEFEST @ Gershwin Hotel N.Y.C.
So happy to catch your act at the Uke Fest and bask in the glory of yourselves and your gorgeous scenery. It looked so good, I almost started chewing on it, but luckily I'd been sated by that yummy Hawaiian coconut pudding.
Hope to see you again...
peace & amity,
Meghan of DAGMAR and, when in ukeland, "Amity Rose"
This material sounds like the music they play on the folk shows at our station, but 100% BETTER. Whenever you get a release for this stuff, send me one and I'll try to get it put into the folk rotation.
It sure was a blast joining you at the Slipper Room. Thanks for having me. Vaudeville nights are swell! However, the after party I stumbled into was bit much . . .
