I frequently head out to shows at The Boom Boom Room in S.F., a great club that The Breakfast once played at. Everytime I have gone there, I have thoroughly enjoyed all the acts I have seen (generally funky jazz grooves). This Fri. is The Motet and Vinyl plays on Sat. Since I plan on attending at least one of the shows and haven\'t heard either band, I am soliciting input. I have noticed that both of these bands receive press on Jambase/bands so I\'m sure some .inforumers are familiar with these acts.
The following descriptions were provided by The Boom Boom Room for each band:
Motet: An intimate evening with the MOTET throwin\' down their signature Jazzfunkafrocubanic Shake Yo\' Ass music ! "Rootsy and steeped in African rythmns and groovalicious funk, The Motet\'s music is sure to infect you. It\'s a convergence of dance music and free-form improvisation that could turn out to be one of the most satisfying musical experiences you\'ve had since the dawn of the 21st Century."
Vinyl: San Francisco Power-Groovers Light Up The Boom Boom Room on this SATURDAY The infectious music of Vinyl blends old-school funk, Latin percussion,reggae and R&B into signature instrumental grooves.
Vinyl shows are high energy and dance oriented with a universal appeal. They play to packed houses throughout the San Francisco Bay Area
