Budos Band and Javier Garcia



Friday, April 24th, 7:00 pm - North Beach Bandshell
Friday April 24th, 7 pm
North Beach Bandshell
7275 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach 33141

Advance tickets are $20

The Budos Band, from the Afro-soulful Daptone Family, offer an exciting Fela Kuti-influenced take on instrumental music. Eleven pieces in all, their group consists of drums, bass, guitar, electric organ, two trumpets, baritone saxophone, and a percussion section employing bongos, congas, tambourine, guiro, clave, shekere and cowbell. Their music has been described as compelling, psychedelic, innovative, and above all soulful. However, like many majestic things, their sound had humble beginnings.

The core of the band met as youths while participating in an after school jazz ensemble in Staten Island, New York. On late night ferry rides into Manhattan, they would sneak in the back door of the No Moore Club downtown to hear bands like Antibalas, the Sugarman Three, and Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings. After meeting resistance from the band director about the direction they wanted to take the music, they formed their own band: Los Barbudos (Spanish for "the bearded ones"). The band's name was shortened to Budos Band when one of the members shaved.

With the release of their self-titled debut album in November of 2005, the Budos Band officially joined the ranks of the Daptone Family and began to perform frequently as part of the Daptone Soul Revue, alongside many of the very acts that had inspired them only a few years before at the No Moore Club. In classic Daptone Family form, Budos guitarist Tommy ‘TNT’ Brenneck has since joined as a full-ranking member of the illustrious Dap-Kings band, and Dap-Kings’ trumpeter David Guy has reached across in turn to join the Budos Band for appearances both on the band stand and in the studio. Show after show, the Budos Band have proven their ability not only to deliver the unique, afro-psychedelic raw funk sound of their first record live, but to surpass it with dynamic soulful performances that have whipped crowds into dancing frenzies from coast to coast.
