The Macpodzcast http://www.themacpodz.com A monthly Podcast featuring live music and the latest news from The Macpodz. About The Macpodz: The Macpodz are an electrified jazz quintet from Ann Arbor, Michigan. In the tradition of Miles Davis and Frank Zappa, this ensemble pushes the boundaries of rock, jazz and fusion music. Drummer Griffin Bastian and percussionist Nick Ayers drive the rhythm behind bassist Brennan Andes, keyboardist Jesse Clayton and trumpeter Ross Huff. The band coined the term âDisco Bebopâ at their first gig in early 2006, after playing a four on the floor roller rink remix of the Charlie Parker tune, âDewey Square.â The Macpodz self released their debut album, Genius Food for Super Heroes, on January 2, 2007. Described as lush, daring and incredibly solid, the music has been well received by jazz lovers and those who just love to dance. âThe crowd dances, bobs and claps unfazed when the music veered into odd meter,â said James Manheim of the Ann Arbor Observer. Committed to âthe preservation of the motion of hips,â the Macpodz will be rocking audiences throughout the Midwest and east coast on their spring tour & on to summer festivals Hookahville, Summercamp, Waukarusa, Nelson Ledges & The Dunegrass Music Festival. en Christopher@TheMacpodz.com Liberated Syndication - libsyn.com podcasts@libsyn.com (Liberated Syndication) Sat, 08 Mar 2008 01:14:00 GMT 180 The Macpodz The Macpodzcast features live & studio recordings, interviews, road stories and other nuggets.
