TAUK - Homunculus

Homonculus is composed of 10 instrumentals that work together well to make a full, balanced composition. Many instrumental albums, some with intent and others without chance, often drag and feel like one long ensemble. Sometimes it works well as evidenced by Lotus’s Monks and other times it grows tiresome like Kbit’s Un Boombox Symphonique. On this album, Tauk manages to stay away from the typical shattering of any stereotypical genre categorization.
Beats Antique, Papadosio, Lettuce & Dozens More to Bartow, WV this August 21-23

Presented by Stanlee Ventures, the eighth annual Camp Barefoot Music & Arts takes place August 21-23 in Bartow, WV. The multi-day camping festival features performances from Beats Antique, two sets each from Papadosio, Lettuce, and Kyle Hollingsworth Band with The Motet Horns performing a tribute to Motown, The London Souls, Kung Fu, The Motet, Zach Deputy, Brothers Past and many more.
 
Nestled within a beautiful meadow off the grid, Camp Barefoot’s pristine setting is a short drive from Washington DC, Richmond, Virginia Beach, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Asheville. From the two main stages with no overlapping sets, to a more intimate stage within the woods, to the stage greeting campers as they arrive, there is plenty for fans to enjoy.  

“We are thrilled to have a chance to build a relationship with top notch national acts but we don't forget our main purpose of bringing independent music to light,” says Scott McLain the producer of Camp Barefoot Music Festival. “To top it off we were blessed with a beautiful meadow in WV that gives us the opportunity to create this grassroots community event!"

Tapping into the great pool of independent artists, Camp Barefoot’s mission is to exceed all expectations of what a summer festival can be.
 
This summer festival does exactly that with a list of performers including:
Beats Antique
Papadosio (2 Sets)
Lettuce (2 sets)

Meet Tauk, a band that delivers a unique blend of rock-fusion with a fresh experimental spirit. Since forming earlier this decade, the NYC-based group has built an impressive DIY buzz scoring opening gigs for MOE., Robert Randolph & the Family Band, Tea Leaf Green, and sets at Gathering of the Vibes, Hangout Music Fest, Peach Festival with The Allman Brothers and Bonnaroo. Most recently, the band announced upcoming gigs at Camp Barefoot Festival and FloydFest this year.

After touring, the band then teamed up with Grammy-winning producer Robert Carranza (Jack Johnson, Mars Volta) to harness the band’s eclectic vision creating entirely instrumental tracks for their most recent album, “Homunculus.” “What’s compelling is the raw power of the band, from their light moments to full-out jamming. Music is a language that some feel and others speak – and Tauk do both very well" adds Carranza.

Tauk plans to continue to push the envelope of their musical vision, and bring that vision to all those who are listening around the country.

Sometimes fate has a funny way of bringing people together.

After three years of solo touring up and down the east coast to promote her EP, Forget Me Not, Rebekah Todd found herself searching for something more— a bigger sound that could command attention and captivate a crowd. Todd knew she needed a band.  

During the summer of 2013, Todd was introduced to what would later become her band during an impromptu practice for a July 4th gig at Peasant’s Pub in Greenville, NC.  It only took one practice for Todd to realize that she had finally found the band she had been looking for for years, the band now known as Rebekah Todd & The Odyssey.

Together they quickly found that the intersection of Todd’s folk tendencies and The Odyssey’s jazz, funk, gospel leanings made for a unique and appealing soulful-folk sound that often left room for improvisational jams within Todd’s songs.  In the studio, the band laid down tracks for their recent LP, Roots Bury Deep, with the ease of a group that has been performing and arranging songs together for years.  

With the recent release of Roots Bury Deep, Rebekah Todd & The Odyssey take to the road for their official album promotional tour throughout the southeast.  Todd will have strong backing support on stage from Seymour (bass), Quincy Jones (keys), Chris Knuckles (saxophone), Evan Roberson (trombone), and Brandon Shamar (drums).

(02/18/14 Release)

With their first LP, Roots Bury Deep, Rebekah Todd & The Odyssey add a layer of storytelling to the musical foundation that has been laid before her. This 9-track album is a soulful folk gem with shades of jazz and funk that paints across the canvas of genres.  The album delivers a more textured auditory landscape and further elevates Todd’s signature solo sound.  Roots Bury Deep represents a unique musical intersection between traditional Carolinian folk and gritty New Orleans jazz.  The final product takes listeners on a journey from the deep, dark corners of loss and despair to the wide-open, bright spaces of love and hope.

Big Something and moe. - Lincoln Theatre Feb 4th 2014
Local favorites, BIG Something opened the show supporting Moe. on Tuesday, February 4th, to a full house at the Lincoln Theater in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina.

BIG Something played old favorites and new material from their latest release the self-titled CD "BIG Something".  The band substituted the lyrics during their performance of a fan favorite, Amanda Lynn, with a nod towards moe. and their fans with the phrase "Who's got my Rebubula, cause I can't find mine!"
