Some music is so original it seems snatched from the great\, invisible substrata that runs below all human activity\, a sound aching to be born without a flag or fixed allegiance - free\, questing\, overflowing with immediate\, tangible life. This is the music of Toubab Krewe\, the vibrant instrumental powerhouse that creates a sonic Pangaea that lustily swirls together rock\, African traditions\, jam sensibilities\, international folk strains and more. While nearly impossible to put into any box\, it takes only a few moments to realize in a very palpable way that one is face-to-face with a true original who recognizes no borders in a march towards a muscular\, original\, globally switched-on sound.\n\nFormed in 2005\, Toubab Krewe has tenaciously honed their craft through relentless touring and a fierce dedication to carving out something they can truly call their own. The fruits of this hard work can be heard on their latest release\, STYLO\, (March 2nd\, 2018). What Justin Perkins (Kora\, Kamelngoni\, guitar\, percussion)\, Terrence Houston (drumset)\, Drew Heller (guitar\, organ)\, Justin Kimmel (bass\, keys)\, and Luke Quaranta (Djembe\, Congas\, Dundun\, Sangban\, Kinkini) have wrought on STYLO reflects the many miles and musical journeys that have transpired since their last studio album\, TK2.\n\nThis is a band that actively draws inspiration from whatever source floats into their purview\, something they've exhibited in their decade and a half of heavy gigging\, including regular appearances at major U.S. festivals like Bonnaroo\, High Sierra\, Rothbury and Wakarusa\, and abroad at such legendary gatherings as the Festival In The Desert in Essakane\, Mali. Whether on their own or collaborating with luminaries like the Last Poets' Umar Bin Hassan or Uncle Earl's Rayna Gellert\, Toubab Krewe has already earned the attention and respect of a broad musical community.\n\nToubab carries echoes of African greats like Ali Farka Toure\, Orchestra Baobab and Salif Keita\, no doubt picked up during the group's travels to study and live in Guinea\, Ivory Coast and Mali. But what truly differentiates Toubab Krewe from other Statesiders inspired by African music is how they innovate on what they've learned instead of simply recreating tradition. Toubab Krewe carves out a new trail honoring the African originators they admire by making something alive and contemporary.\n\nAbout the Support Rudy Love & The Encore\n\nRudy Love & The Encore is comprised of Rudy Love Jr. (vocals & keys)\, Marrque Nunley (drums)\, Rachelle Love (percussion)\, Mariel Jacoda (vocals)\, Sherdeill (DJ) Breathett (bass)\, and Willy Simms (guitar).\n\nThe band members have played together for most of their lives\, and formally introduced the band Rudy Love & The Encore early last year. Rudy Love Jr.'s late father\, renowned musician Rudy Love Sr.\, was a musical mentor to the band members. The band's name is in honor of Love Sr.\, based on the idea that this grouping of musicians is Rudy Love Sr.'s legacy - his encore.\n\n\n\nIn 2023\, the band released their debut EP\, The Beauty of Burdens\, followed quickly by two more singles\, "Broken Angel" and "Grey." They have been busy since the band's inception\, performing and collaborating with Elise Trouw\, performing at Black & Loud Fest in Seattle\, opening for notable acts like Teddy Swims and The B-52's\, and playing multiple tours across the nation. They traded the hyper-competitive hustle of the Los Angeles show business scene\, and are now working together from their hometown of Wichita\, Kansas to build a dream they all hold\, making music with people they love and sharing it with the world.\n\n\n\nWe hope to see you there!
