MAD SWEET PANGS

MSP

For the past five years, Mad-Sweet Pangs has been tastefully gracing the jam scene with their original, soulful, organic sound, and high-energy live performances. Drawing from an eclectic blend of musical influences, ranging from American Folk to Chicago Blues, from underground Rock and Pop to Jazz, and even Country, this quartet is generating a buzz at every new show they play…

JATOBA

Jatoba

Incorporating a unique blend of three extraordinary acoustic musicians, Jatoba redefines their sound through collective songwriting and extreme rhythmic improvisations. Through the Double Bass, Acoustic Guitars, Baritone Guitar, Mandolin, Sitar and harmonizing vocals, Jatoba displays a very eclectic arrangement of acoustic instrumentation. Jatoba is Jason Scaggs, John Jamison and Jeff Richardson.

FRIT

Frit

Frit is a funk based jam band with original exciting music that you can move your whole body to. We are just starting up and have great expectations for ourselves and our music. Our goal is to simultaneously preserve the roots of why music is played and to push the boundaries of where music can take the listener as well as us, the musicians. We hope you can enjoy what we have worked very hard to create.

4 SICK “JAMMY” BANDS, ONE NIGHT, LOTS OF BEAR HUGS!

2/7/09 T.T. the Bear’s Place, Cambridge, MA Setlist

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

I. Late Night. WIM. Walking on the Sun*#. Cocaine Blues# > Shakedown Street > Wounded Dreamer**.

* – Debut

# – With Brad on mandolin.

** – With Late Night tease.

First public show with Andrew Walley on Bass.

With Mad Sweet Pangs, Frit, and Dear Havanah

The band’s largest show to date, TT’s was glowing with energy. Mondo Gecko originally met Mad Sweet Pangs through JamBands.com and decided that we must do a show together. We tagged in our old buddies Frit and Pangs brought along Dear Havanah… the chemistry between the four bands and the fans made for an amazing show. All four bands played amazing sets, with Johnny Duke of Dear Havanah sitting in with Frit and Mad Sweet Pangs.

Gecko’s set was extra special and unique: This was the first public show with Walley on Bass, and I think everyone noticed… the playing and communication is at its highest level yet! Also, Eric had a case of bronchitis and was unable to sing; this led to an even higher dose of improvisation that usual, and the extended version of WIM (with Luke singing Eric’s vocals during the “Fractal Paintbrush” section) was spot on and full of energy, despite the band having dropped the ” Take it for what means” ending section of the song. 

Due to a malfunctioning recording device, no audio of this show is available. :-(
