Chronicle of Events from 2016.

Papadosio 10 Year Anniversary Show 4.2.16

From Papadosio

“Since our journey of releasing live shows began, we’ve crossed multiple platforms and explored many different ways of delivering these recordings to you. A little over a year ago, we tried our first subscription-based model (Drip), which provided a space to not only save a lot of dough, but listen to lots more Papadosio.”

“Now, here in the great 2016 – we are excited to announce that we will be offering a new subscription service right here on Bandcamp that will not only give you access to our entire live catalog, but it comes with a dedicated Bandcamp mobile app that will allow you to stream all the live Papadosio you can possibly take.”

“The coolest part though is that in honor of our recent 10 year anniversary, we still want to offer this new subscription for the same price as Drip, i.e. only $10/month! You will have access to every Live Show we have ever uploaded to Bandcamp and have plenty to look forward to as the year carries on.”

“After nearly every Papadosio show, somebody posts up in the back lounge of the bus and puts on some headphones and starts cutting up and mixing whatever just happened that night. Our hope with this new is to bring you even a little bit closer to that special spot where we get to check in and see what unfolded.”

“So whenever you’re ready, follow us to the Back Lounge, have a seat and lets tune in. Thank you all always for your support!”

Video: Umphrey’s McGee – Red. Rock. Repeat. Trailer

From Umphrey’s McGee

“On July 2nd and 3rd of 2016, Umphrey’s McGee embarked on their first two-night headlining run of the famed Red Rocks Amphitheatre outside Denver, Colorado. The sold out shows proved to be a milestone for Team UM and cameras were rolling all weekend to capture the action, both on stage and off. UM is pleased to now offer you the ability to relive that weekend, or experience it for the first time, with the Blu-Ray, DVD, and download release of Red. Rocks. Repeat.

The double-feature concert film includes footage from both nights, clocking in at over five hours of Umphrey’s live on the Rocks. Fans will have access to a pile of unreleased, behind-the-scenes footage including candid backstage hanging, pre-show warm up, and rehearsals. Additionally, in-depth interviews with the band are seamlessly weaved in and out of the film, highlighting a myriad of topics ranging from the early days of UM, band friendships, the improvisational process, songwriting, what it’s like to play Red Rocks, and more.

The two-disc set was captured by TourGigs in stunning High Definition utilizing 16 cameras over the two-night run. This is the most complete concert film UM has released to date so buckle up, you’re in for a ride!”

New Mashup Album from Umphrey’s McGee ‘Zonkey’

Umphrey's McGee - Zonkey

From Umphrey’s McGee

“Umphrey’s McGee has been arranging and performing original mashups live for over eight years. It was only a matter of when, not if, these innovative concoctions would find their way into a studio. And that “when” has arrived.”

“Today, UM is pleased to announce ZONKEY, an album of 12 unique mashups, conceived and arranged by the band. ZONKEY is as seamless as it bizarre, playful as it is razor sharp. Bits and pieces of classic songs are culled from 40+ years of popular music from 70s Reggae to 80s Pop to 90s Metal and everywhere in between. From Radiohead mashed with Beck, The Weeknd with Fleetwood Mac, Talking Heads with Bob Marley, Metallica with Gorillaz . . . nothing is off limits.”

““ZONKEY clearly pays homage to some of our favorite artists and songs. While we’ve tried to reproduce the spirit of the original compositions and recordings, we’ve also tried to have some fun with the structure as we’ve often combined seemingly dissimilar musical elements to create a new vibe altogether,” notes keyboardist Joel Cummins.”

Papadosio Live Webcast at The Brooklyn Bowl 2016

Papadosio - Live Webcast Nov 2016

From Papadosio

“Falling somewhere between rock, jazz and electronic mayhem we find space rock. This is a genre that is not readily defined, and is a state of mind as much as it could be considered a genre. This range of frequencies is where Papadosio tends to spend their time, sometimes dining in deep space, and other times snacking right on your front porch. Papadosio strives to create music that is strangely familiar, and calls all walks of humanity to bask in a unique experience celebrating the one constant in an ever changing world: music.

Join Papadosio in an effort to create, augment, and rejoice in the universal language of music. Most importantly, have a good time.”
