REVIEW: Djesben, with John Kadlecik, at the New Deal, Greenbelt, MD

Greetings, all music fans.

Djesben, (jazz band in Javanese) with their unique and beautiful sound, rocked a packed house Satrday night at The New Deal Café a little gem in Greenbelt, MD.

Their eclectic jazz meets folk, meets bossa nova, meetsimprovisational bliss, can also melt suddenly into a very pretty “Norwegian Wood” (Beatles), before landing itself squarely and unapologetically in the middle of a Grateful Dead jam that you’d never see coming!

In fact, center stage on percussion, including congas, cymbal and chimes, is Katy Gaughan, (wife of Furthur’s lead guitar and vocalist John Kadlicek), and she is simply gifted, folks!

With layers of rhythm woven around Topher Dunne’s exquisite melodic tones on his Chapman Stick (a ten-string tappinginstrument with the range of a piano) along with Christian Crowley’s Appalachian dulcimer, Chapman Stick and haunting vocals that harken one back to a young Brian Ferry,  Katy will take you, without permission, effortlessly into a world of a thousand beats, ornamental trills and chimes, all landing perfectly, clearly, each distinguishable from the other like a soft rain — while her thumping congas deliver a rock inside you that you just can’t help dancing to!

If that’s not enough, for a real treat, Katy’s husband John, with the hands and ear of a musical journeyman, sits in with the trio as he did last night on the violin – his first instrument picked up at age 8 — when he’s not on the road with Furthur.

With Katy’s infectious smile and exuberance and John’s humble, unassuming grace, it’s easy to see how the good energy that follows this couple is as strong as it is endearing.  Admittedly, biased as I am, I love seeing John play with “the boys” like he did a few weeks ago in Madison Square Garden, singing the sweetest “Morning Dew” I’ve heard in years, but these are people with whom you could just as easily share a quiet dinner, or go for an evening walk and talk of small things.

Together with their band mates last night, there was no question:  Djesben oozes a personality of cool, without airs.  The line between audience and musician becomes invisible, or at least blurred, creating an intimacy, an easiness thatI recognize from another band that we all know and love.

Bold?  Perhaps, but it’s easy to see from the audience that the people on stage, and their collective little jewel, Djesben, are not only touched by brilliance, but from the smiles on their faces you can see that they are genuine. They would easily switch places and dance all night with us if we were game for as long as we were willing.

Djesben is playing a select couple of shows in February, with special guests playing with them:
Feb 11th at Fireflies Del Ray in Alexandria, VA
Feb. 12th  Busboys and Poets with the Akoma Drummers to benefit Drumming Up From Poverty

Be there or be square!

The Music Never Stopped (movie)

The Music Never Stopped

Based upon “The Last Hippie” by Oliver Sacks, M.D.

http://themusicneverstopped-movie.com

Directed by Jim Kohlberg
Written by Gwyn Lurie and Gary Marks
Produced by Julie W. Noll, Jim Kohlberg, Peter Newman, Greg Johnson

Starring:
J.K. Simmons
Lou Taylor Pucci
Cara Seymour
Julia Ormond

“The Music Never Stopped,” based on the case study “The Last Hippie” by Dr. Oliver Sacks, M.D. (“Awakenings”), chronicles the journey of a father and son adjusting to cerebral trauma and a lifetime of missed opportunities. Through the music that embodied the generation gap of the 1960s, the film weaves the heartwarming progress of Henry and Gabriel.

With father and son on the opposite side of musical tastes as well as politics and the war in Vietnam, Gabriel disappears into the counterculture following a devastating confrontation with his father. The film opens nearly two decades later, when Henry and wife Helen (played by Cara Seymour) are told their son has been found wandering the streets of New York City. Gabriel has a brain tumor that has caused extensive brain damage, and needs immediate surgery. When he recovers, he is in a near-catatonic state, his brain damaged to the point that it cannot recall orcreate any long-term memories. Effectively, Gabriel still thinks he is in 1968.

After his operation, the extent of Gabriel’s condition is made clear: the tumor damaged the part of the brain that creates new memories. For Gabriel, past, present, and future are indistinguishable, and he still lives in the era of Vietnam, acid tests, and psychedelic music. Determined not to let their son slip away from them again, Henry and wife Helen (Cara Seymour) vow to connect with Gabriel, who is barely able to communicate effectively. Unhappy with Gabriel’s progress, Henry researches brain injuries, which leads him to Dr. Dianne Daly (Julia Ormond). She is a music therapist who has made progress with victims of brain tumors using music.

As Diane works more with Gabriel, she realizes that he seems to respond actively to the music of the psychedelic era – the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and particularly the Grateful Dead – which has a remarkable effect on Gabriel. He is able to have conversations and express himself, even though he is unaware the era of his music has long passed. Henry can’t stand rock and roll – but he is determined to forge some memories and a new relationship with his son. While his own health fails, Henry begins his own pilgrimage through the bands of the sixties. As he learns the
songs that animate his son’s soul, he indeed begins to form a most unusual but emotionally vibrant bond with the child he thought he had lost.

Modern rock heroes My Morning Jacket will return to the festival after five years to headline on Sunday, June 5. The newly formed Warren Haynes Band, a soul-infused ensemble will make its debut northeast festival appearance, headlining on Friday, June 3.

“It’s been great to watch Mountain Jam grow over the last seven years from a one-day concert to a multi-day, destination event,” says Haynes. “I’m really looking forward to this year’s line-up and to performing with both Gov’t Mule and the Warren Haynes Band.”

Mountain Jam favorites Michael Franti & Spearhead, hot off the smashing success of their latest hit album The Sound of Sunshine, will return for their sixth consecutive Mountain Jam appearance. The festival’s eclectic lineup will also see return appearances by crossover punk-Americana sensations The Avett Brothers, and modern blues-rock trailblazers North Mississippi Allstars.

Funk/soul trio Soulive, will headline Thursday night’s offerings with a set of instrumental Beatles songs from their latest album Rubber Soulive. Rising Brooklyn-based soul-rockers The London Souls, and a late-night band still to be announced will round out Thursday’s entertainment.

“We are really excited to bring this amazing group of artists to the Mountain in 2011 and to expand the fun to a fourth night”, said Mountain Jam Founder, and Radio Woodstock President/Owner, Gary Chetkof. “Every year we strive to make the Mountain Jam experience better than the year before, and this year we know we are going to take this over the top!”

The festival’s forward-thinking Awareness Village will once again host a special acoustic stage, as well as exhibits from not-for-profit organizations and environmental groups, children’s entertainment, performance and sculpture art, physical and spiritual healing, a beer and wine garden, and much more. The Festival will also be continuing its greening efforts with recycling, carbon offsets, and free water refills to reduce the usage of plastic water bottles.

Originally conceived in 2005 as a single-day celebration of Radio Woodstock’s 25th anniversary, Mountain Jam has blossomed into a four-day, multi-stage event, featuring onsite camping, and one of the northeast’s most pristine natural amphitheaters.

Joining SCI at Winter Carnival 2011 is British producer/electro-artist Ott, influential bluegrass legends J.D. Crowe & The New South and New Orleans’ premier new-school funk band, Ivan Neville’s Dumpstaphunk.

The String Cheese Incident

2010 was a remarkable year for The String Cheese Incident, with more than 15 years of touring under their belt the band entered a new phase where select events and special destinations took the place of long stretches on the road.
