Celebrating David Byrne and Talking Heads at Carnegie Hall

The Music of David Byrne and Talking Heads at Carnegie Hall We'll be the house band for a celebration of the music of David Byrne and Talking Heads on March 23, 2015 at Carnegie Hall. We're excited to be backing / collaborating with over 14 featured artists including Sharon Jones, the Roots, Cee-Lo Green, Bebel Gilberto, Beth Orton, Steve Earle, Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Santigold, and many others.

100% of the net proceeds from the show go to six charities connecting youth with music and the visual arts in New York City: Church Street School for Music and Art, Midori and Friends, Young Audiences NY, Little Kids Rock, The Center for Arts Education, and the Grammys in the Schools program of the Grammy Foundation.

The night before (March 22), we'll be doing a warm-up/rehearsal show at City Winery in NYC.

Antibalas Horns record with Mark Ronson at Electric Lady Studios, NYC

In the studio with Mark Ronson

We spent Sunday at Electric Lady Studios with Jovanotti. Across the hall was producer Mark Ronson, finishing his latest record. Mark has worked with musicians from our camp since the Amy Winehouse sessions in 2006. For this project needed some more horns on a new song. We were there so we went and did it. The song is fierce and funky, and has an energy and texture reminiscent of the best of Chaka Khan, Earth Wind and Fire, Teena Marie, D-Train and Michael Jackson all in one song.
