   About The Hip Abduction
"Members of this tight and energetic Florida based band have laid stakes all over the world and bring to the party international traditions, rhythms and instruments", TBT '07. ".....I have never seen so many people actually DANCING at this festival.....the reality and energy of your performance and the audience response blew me away!!" National Public Radio WMNF DJ Arth Mawr. The Hip Abduction is a culmination of world genres directed toward high energy live performances and tranquil lyricism. Singer/songwriter David New keeps the theme moving from his years spent traveling the Caribbean and South America. Depending on the venue, up to 8 members can be on stage during a Hip Abduction event, each following a world, rock, soul, and reggae theme. Heavy emphasis is placed on the dub-reggae-inspired bass lines of Chris Powers and the unique drumming technique of Pat Hernly who uses a multi-percussion setup including congas, timbales, hand kick, tabla, dholak, and cajon. Trumpeter Kevin Clark and saxophonist Matt Gawlik lay down jazz/funk style instrumental melodies. Tight drumming coupled with a strong melodic groove structure is at the core of each tune. THA draws on the stories of acoustic driven blues, overlays jazz/funk style instrumental melodies, and crafts high-energy festival style free improvisation. As a whole, The Hip Abduction members have played and resided in the Caribbean, Micronesia, Ecuador, India, NYC, DC, and various locations along east coast. For booking info contact David @ 813-679-0587
