more Daptone news (Budos Band dates, behind the scenes w/ Charles Bradley, Sharon Jones, Del-Rays tonight & more)

January 12, 2011

Sharon Jones & Lee Fields at Prospect Park (more by David Andrako)

It’s only been a few days since Lee Fields funked up Bowery Ballroom and already lots more Daptone updates to report on!

In addition to their previously discussed date with the purple one at MSG on 1/18, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings have a proper set of East Coast dates scheduled a few weeks later – none in NYC, but there’s the 1/29 show at Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank, NJ, and a CT show on 2/12. Charles Bradley also plays that show, and others this month with Sharon Jones. He also has his own previously discussed appearance scheduled for 1/25 at Southpaw (tickets are still on sale).

The full lineup of Charles’s Southpaw show also includes the Menahan Street Band, “The Electric Sound Of Johnny Arrow” featuring Cochemea Gastelum, DJ Honeydripper, DJ Dave Griffith. Members of the Menahan Street Band also play in The Del Reys who play with Eli Paperboy Reed at Brooklyn Bowl TONIGHT (1/12). Spiritkid is also on the Finger on the Pulse-presented “Soul Bowl” show. Tickets are still on sale.

Charles Bradley recently posted a video for “The World (Is Going Up In Flames)”, check out a behind the scenes video for that clip below and look for a longer version to appear on his Facebook later this week.

The Budos Band (who also share members with Menahan Street Band and The Del Reys) have various US tour dates scheduled through June. The band plays NYC again on March 11th at The Bell House. Tickets are on sale.

Prince recently announced another show at MSG on February 7th (no opener info yet). Tickets for the new show go on presale at 11AM on 1/13, and general sale at 10AM on 1/15.

All tour dates and some video is below…
